The treated surfaces receive very small peaks against microbial attack. Positively charged nitrogen molecules pull the negatively charged cell wall onto the tip of the carbon molecules. Upon contact, the cell wall is physically destroyed and the E-Coli decays.
A bacterial cluster of E. coli on a treated textile fiber. You can see remnants and "mucilage" caused by the puncturing of the cell walls.
