Synthesis of Copper Nanoparticles Stabilized with Organic Ligands and Their Antimicrobial Properties

Synthesis of Copper Nanoparticles Stabilized with Organic Ligands and Their Antimicrobial Properties

In this work, we report the synthesis of copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs), employing the chemical reduction method in an aqueous medium. We used copper sulfate pentahydrate (CuSO<sub>4</sub>·5H<sub>2</sub>O) as a metallic precursor; polyethylenimine (PEI), allylamine (AAM), and...
