Antimicrobial properties of electrically formed elastomeric polyurethane–copper oxide nanocomposites for medical and dental applications
Ahmad, Z.; Vargas-Reus, M.A.; Bakhshi, R.; Ryan, F.; Ren, Guogang; Oktar, F.; Allaker, R. (2012-04-16)With the rapidly advancing field of nanotechnology having an impact in several areas interfacing life and physical sciences, the potential applications of nano-particles as antimicrobial agents have been realized and offer ... -
Characterisation of copper oxide nanoparticles for antimicrobial applications
Ren, Guogang; Hu, D.; Cheng, E.W.C.; Vargas-Reus, M.A.; Reip, P.; Allaker, R. (2009)Copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles were characterised and investigated with respect to potential antimicrobial applications. It was found that nanoscaled CuO, generated by thermal plasma technology, contains traces of pure ... -
Nanomaterials as antimicrobials
Allaker, R. P.; Vargas-Reus, M.A.; Ren, Guogang (Wiley, 2012)The chapter considered the use of nano-particulate metals and metal oxides as antimicrobial agents that have the potential to provide an additional functionality to polymeric materials.
