Abstract  

Triclosan and silver antibacterial agent were incorporated into polyethylene by blending. The antimicrobial efficacy of modified samples and inhibitory effect of antimicrobial agent on biofilm formation on the LDPE surface were investigated. The results showed that both of modified LDPE samples exhibited excellent antimicrobial performance against S. aureus and E. coli. The formation of  biofilm could be described as a three–stage process: adhesion, proliferation and biofilm maturation. The adhesion and propagation of bacteria were evidently reduced by triclosan added into LDPE, thereby the formation of biofilm was prevented. However, the amount of bacteria on the surface of LDPE adding silver antimicrobial agent was no less than that on the control sample. Silver antimicrobial agent could not make much difference in biofilm formation on surfaces.
