This study is devoted to investigate the possibility to prepare thymol-doped antibacterial coatings. For this purpose, thymol has been dissolved in different amounts into a liquid photo-crosslinkable diacrylic resin and the antibacterial activity has been evaluated against gram-positive and gram-negative bacterias by qualitative modified agar diffusion assays. The rate of diffusion of thymol from the doped-resins have been performed with different liquid simulating fat (n-hexane), acqueous (water) and intermediate polarity (MeOH, Ethyl Acetate and EtOH) media.
