requires straightforward tools for fast, sensitive, reliable, and reproducible detection of …

Background Nanomaterials have unique properties compared to their bulk counterparts. For
this reason, nanotechnology has attracted a great deal of attention from the scientific …

This work investigates the role of oxidation state in the antibacterial activity of copper oxide
nanoparticles (NPs). The findings add strong support to a contact killing mechanism of …

This review illustrated the role of metal-binding proteins (MBPs) and microbial interaction in
assisting the phytoremediation of industrial wastewater polluted with heavy metals. MBPs …

Extensive use of engineered nanoparticle (ENP)-based consumer products and their
release into the environment have raised a global concern pertaining to their adverse effects …

One fourth of the global mortalities is still caused by microbial infections largely due to the
development of resistance against conventional antibiotics among pathogens, the …

Metal nanoparticles have distinctly different chemical and physical properties than currently
investigated oxides. Since pure metallic nanoparticles are igniting at air, carbon stabilized …

Ecotoxicity of engineered nanoparticles (NPs) has become the focus of considerable
attention because of their wide applications. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play important …
