Effective delivery of volatile biocides employing mesoporous silicates for treating biofilms

Nanoparticulate delivery of biocides has the potential to decrease levels of exposure to non- target organisms, and miminise long-term exposure which can promote the development of resistance. Silica nanoparticles are an ideal vehicle since they are inert, biocompatible, biodegradable, and thermally...
