RE: Engineering A Better Band-Aid: Antibacterial Paper Created With Silver Coated Gold Nanoparticles

in #science7 years ago

The next image to the right (c) we are looking at nanoparticles with a low amount of the silver (thats the 1000 gold/1 silver ratio), these particles also did NOT kill the bacteria, hmm.

so they need a lot of silver then? hmmm.. just resort to a more affordable band aid and just spread calendula cream on the wound

Sort:  

It's not actually all that much metal no.

They used This Kit to apply silver to the gold nano particles.

I see. costly band aid?

Dunno yet :)
