Novel nanohybrids of silver particles on clay platelets for inhibiting silver-resistant bacteria.

Novel nanohybrids of silver particles on clay platelets for inhibiting silver-resistant bacteria.

We develop a novel nanohybrid showing a strong antibacterial activity on all of the tested pathogens, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus auerus and silver-resistant E. coli. The nanohybrid consists of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) supported on 1 nm-thick silicate platelets (NSPs). The AgN...
