Laboratory and field tests demonstrate stronger antifungal protection with copper coatings on agricultural surfaces, suggesting enhanced durability is needed.
Copper-based antimicrobial coatings offer strong potential for preventing fungal colonisation on agricultural surfaces, outperforming titanium oxide formulations under both laboratory and field conditions. Optimisation to enhance durability will further improve their suitability for long-term use in protected cultivation systems.
