DESCRIPTION

Although photosensitizers (PSs) are critical for light-driven antibacterial therapy, the complexity of their synthesis and high-temperature requirement limit the applications of PS in antibacterial treatment. In an article recently published in the journal ACS Applied Nano Materials, researchers constructed photo-responsive nanocubes (AgPB) by functionalizing the silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with kaempferol (Kae) and subsequently implanted them into Prussian blue (PB).
