The results of the study suggest that Ag-doped aluminium oxide coatings demonstrate improved bactericidal effect and have great potential in various medical applications. PACS: 87.80 Rb INTRODUCTION The standard methods for sterilization of medical instruments and products require time, intensive treatment, and aggressive chemicals using. The antimicrobial coatings formation on the surface of metal and plastic medical products is a possible alternative and effective way to improve the quality of modern prosthesis, stents, and optical lenses. Nanocomposite coatings exhibit unique properties [1, 2], which are very important for next implant and tissue engineering applications. Recently, it has been reported that Ag ions could be effective against more than 16 species of bacteria [3]. To increase the antibacterial properties of coatings based on Al, Zr, Ti oxides, nitrides and oxinitrides against different bacterial strains, silver dopes with bactericidal effect as antibiotics were added during deposition process [4-9]. The antimicrobial properties of Ag doped aluminum oxide coatings deposited by magnetron sputtering method against representative strains of microorganisms associated with hospital-acquired infections such as Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus, and Gram-negative Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacterium and fungi Candida albicans were analyzed in vitro study. 1. MATERIALS AND METHODS Alumina coatings were deposited in a high vacuum pumping system with a base pressure of about 10 -2 Pa by ion source-assisted magnetron sputtering [2]. A combined aluminum/silver target with a different areas ratio was used. The microstructure and morphology of the coatings were studied by JEM-700F scanning electron microscope. The Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) method with a high-energy electron beam was used for determination of the elements and the Ag distribution in the Al2O3-Ag samples. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy was carried out using ESCALAB MkII (VG Scientific) electron spectrometer using AlKalphaX-ray source (excitation energy hν=1486.6 eV). The following microbial strains and microorganisms were selected: bacteria Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus, methicillin resistant strain (MRSA), Gram- negative Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacterium and fungi Candida albicans from the Collection of Institute of Microbiology, BAS. The Ag- doped aluminum oxide coatings deposited by magnetron sputtering method were testd. The bacterial suspensions were put on the coated and uncoated surfaces of glass substrates. 1: 1 to 1: 1000 – the dilutions of the bacterial suspension that had been in contact with the silver doped coatings and control for a respective time period of 0, 1, 2, 5, and 24 hours and from which 25 μl was plated on Tryptic Soy agar medium Agar for microbiology (Sigma-Aldrich). After 24 hours of incubation at 37 °C, the number of bacterial colonies emerged. The direct microscopic counting of viable cells by haemocytometer was made. The results were expressed as CFU/ml (colony-forming units per milliliter). The statistical correlation of the results of antibacterial activity tests between the coated samples and control was determined. Difference was considered significant at the p < 0.05. 2. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Fig. 1 shows SEM images of Ag-doped Al2O3 coatings deposited by magnetron sputtering method. The coatings surface was smooth and uniform, without cracks and delamination. EDS spectra reveal the presents of main characteristic elements such as aluminum (Al), oxygen (O), silver (Ag). The presence of silicon (Si), calcium (Ca), sodium (Na) elements results from the small thickness (0.1 μm) of coating on the glass substrate. 188 ISSN 1562-6016. ВАНТ. 2019. №1(119) a b Fig. 1. SEM images (a) and EDS spectra (b) of Ag- doped aluminium oxide coating deposited by magnetron sputtering method on the glass substrates The bonding states of the deposited Ag-doped Al2O3- coatings were characterized by XPS. The high- resolution photoelectron spectra of Al2p, O1s, Ag3d were observed. The chemical composition was found to be close to stoichiometric composition [10]. Fig. 2 shows O1s and Ag3d XPS spectra of the deposited Al2O3-Ag coating. The O1s high-resolution spectra demonstrate the peak at binding energy position E = 531.7 eV, associated with Al-O chemical bond. The Al2p peak with binding energy position E=75 eV, which is corresponded to the Al2O3 composition was detected. a b Fig. 2. The high-resolution photoelectron spectra of O1s (a), Ag3d (b) of the Ag-doped aluminium oxide coating deposited by magnetron sputtering method on the glass substrates The characteristic Ag3d3/2 and Ag3d5/2 spectra (see Fig. 2,b) are detected at 374.4 and 368.7 eV, correspondently. Ag3d5/2 spectrum shows broad peak which can be deconvoluted into three components corresponding to an Ag peak at 368.2 eV, an Ag2O- bond peak at 367.7 eV, and a silver oxide (AgO)-bond peak at 367.1 eV [7]. The bacterial-viability tests in Fig. 3 demonstrate strong bactericidal activity of Ag-doped aluminium oxide coating deposited by magnetron sputtering method against Gram-negative Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacterium.

In the contrary, the coatings influence on the Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and fungi Candida albicans was less effective. This fact confirms that the application of Ag-doped Al2O3 coatings significantly improved the antibacterial properties of coatings against Gram-negative bacterium, as it was previously reported in the studies [3, 4]. ISSN 1562-6016. ВАНТ. 2019. №1(119) 189 CONCLUSIONS The results demonstrate the principal possibility to increase the antimicrobial activity of the Ag-doped aluminum oxide coatings against representative strains of microorganisms. The effect of the bactericidal action of coated surfaces results in the lethality of all studied bacterial strains and fungi during 24 hours of testing period. The activation of surface antimicrobial properties of various medical products is very challenging for many biomedical applications.
