      Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) and gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) show a high catalytic performance in generating hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), a property that can be exploited to kill disease-causing microbes and to carry carbon-free ...

    • Investigating the Antimicrobial Potential of Metallic Based Nanoparticles and their Integration within Biocompatible Polymers 

      Chung, Etelka (2023-03-31)
      Antimicrobial resistance of pathogenic infections is a rising global issue resulting in less effective antibiotic treatments against infections, thus leading to prolonged hospitalisation, higher mortality rates and increased ...

    • Metal-based nanoparticles for combating antibiotic resistance 

      Ren, Guogang; Chung, Etelka; Edirisinghe, Mohan; Altun, Esra; Aydogdu, Mehmet Onur; Homer-Vanniasinkam, Shervanthi (2021-10-05)
      The resistance to antibiotics in combating bacteria is a serious worldwide problem. The search for new approaches to address antibacterial resistance is therefore of crucial importance and seeking alternatives for the ...

    • pH Alteration in Plant-Mediated Green Synthesis and Its Resultant Impact on Antimicrobial Properties of Silver Nanoparticles (AgNPs) 

      Miranda, Amalia; Akpobolokemi, Tamara; Chung, Etelka; Ren, Guogang; Raimi-Abraham, Bahijja Tolulope (2022-11-10)
      Plant-mediated green synthesis is a cost-effective and eco-friendly process used to synthesize metallic nanoparticles. Experimental pH is of interest due to its ability to influence nanoparticle size and shape; however, ...
