Fluorescent Mesoporous Nanoparticles for β‐Lactamase Screening Assays

Abstract We present a sensitive and rapid screening method for the determination of β‐lactamase activity of antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, by designing a pH‐sensitive fluorescent dye‐doped mesoporous silica nanoparticle encapsulated with penicillin G as a substrate. When penicillin G was hydrolysed...
