A Photochemically Active Cu<sub>2</sub>O Nanoparticle Endows Scaffolds with Good Antibacterial Performance by Efficiently Generating Reactive Oxygen Species
Cuprous oxide (Cu<sub>2</sub>O) has great potential in photodynamic therapy for implant-associated infections due to its good biocompatibility and photoelectric properties. Nevertheless, the rapid recombination of electrons and holes weakens its photodynamic antibacterial effect. In this...
