The Use of the ROS Scavenger Cysteine as a Surface Ligand of Metal Nanoclusters and Its Bactericidal Elimination Effect

The Use of the ROS Scavenger Cysteine as a Surface Ligand of Metal Nanoclusters and Its Bactericidal Elimination Effect

The bactericidal effects of fluorescent metal nanoclusters have impeded their bacterial bioimaging applications due to the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation that is induced by the nanoclusters in bacteria to cause bacterial death. Herein, an ROS scavenger of cysteine was exploited as a surfac...
