Interaction between Copper Oxide Nanoparticles and Amino Acids: Influence on the Antibacterial Activity
The increasing concern about antibiotic-resistance has led to the search for alternative antimicrobial agents. In this effort, different metal oxide nanomaterials are currently under investigation, in order to assess their effectiveness, safety and mode of action. This study focused on CuO nanoparti...
