Preparation, characterization and evaluation of zinc oxide nanoparticles suspension as an antimicrobial media for daily use soft contact lenses.

CONCLUSIONS: In vitro antimicrobial activity showed that the suspension of ZNPs with 250 ppm concentration could effectively cause a proper reduction and inhibition in the growth of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms. Therefore, the results revealed the efficacy of the antibacterial properties of synthesized ZNPs suspension in aqueous media. PMID: 31847595 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
