In this study, we explored the antibacterial mechanisms for a novel type of Ag-TiO compound nanoparticles (NPs) produced from an Ag-TiO alloy using a picosecond laser and evaluated the toxicity of the Ag-TiO NPs to a range of human cell types. Transm...
Metallic nanoparticle based disinfection represents a promising approach for microbial pollution control in drinking water and thus, biosynthesis of non precious metal nanoparticles is of considerable interest. Herein, an original and efficient route...
UNLABELLED: Nitric oxide (NO) is an endogenous molecule with many critical biological functions that depend on its concentration. At high levels, NO provides broad-spectrum antibacterial effects through both its pathogen inhibition and killing abilit...
