Article Synopsis
- Antibiotic resistance in bacteria is a growing global health concern, prompting the need for new technologies such as antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation (APDI) to combat infections effectively.*
-
- APDI employs photosensitizers that, once activated by specific light, produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) which damage bacterial cells and inhibit their growth, yet existing photosensitizers face challenges in mass production.*
-
- Research introduces brominated carbon nanodots (BrCND) as novel and cost-effective photosensitizers that show promise for APDI, demonstrating significant antimicrobial effects against various bacteria, alongside a new mechanism of "dark" toxicity involving reactive nitrogen species.*
