Antibacterial effects of microbial synthesized silver-copper nanoalloys on Escherichia coli, Burkholderia cepacia, Listeria monocytogenes and Brucella abortus.
Conclusion: According to the findings of the present research, the microbially synthesized Ag-Cu nanoalloy demonstrated antibacterial effects on the majority of the bacteria studied even at 0.01 μg/μL. However, complementary investigations should be conducted into the safety of this nanoalloy for in vivo or systemic use.
