Photodegradation of Ciprofloxacin-Zinc Complexes Produced at the Interface of ZnO and Cu-Doped ZnO Crystals

Abstract Ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (CIPRO) is considered an emerging pollutant in aquatic environments with the capacity to disseminate antibiotic resistance. Considering the pro-oxidant potential of ZnO and Cu-doped ZnO (Cu-ZnO) wurtzite crystals, the potential Ciprofloxacin photodegradation by t...
