Testing Bacteria Resistance Polymers Onboard The ISS
Student Payload Opportunity with Citizen Science (SPOCS) is a program funded by NASA to inspire the Artemis generation Scientific Question: How does microgravity impact the efficacy of bacteria resistant polymers? Experimental apparatus to be sent to ISS with 2 polymer chemistry candidates coated on Al 6061 alloy coupons Staphylococcus Epidermidis bacteria strain to simulate growth of superficial dermal bacteria.
