Antibacterial Activity and Mechanism of Action of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles against Campylobacter jejuni (2011, background): “Although the antibacterial mechanism of ZnO nanoparticles is still unknown, the possibilities of membrane damage caused by direct or electrostatic interaction between ZnO and cell surfaces, cellular internalization of ZnO nanoparticles, and the production of active oxygen species such as H2O2 in cel”
Review on Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles: Antibacterial Activity and Toxicity Mechanism (2015, background): “Whereas gram-negative bacteria wall is composed of two cell membranes, an outer membrane and a plasma membrane with a thin layer of peptidoglycan [44] with a thickness of 7–8 nm.”
A review on the application of inorganic nano-structured materials in the modification of textiles: focus on anti-microbial properties. (2010, background): “TiO2 nano-particles have unique properties such as higher stability, long lasting, safe and broad-spectrum anti-biosis [55–58].”
Green synthesized ZnO nanoparticles against bacterial and fungal pathogens (2012, background): “As, nanosilver has been used for imparting antibacterial properties ([27,13]), nano-TiO2 and the oxides of other nano-materials like CdO and ZnO have also been reported for antibacterial properties ([56,15,33,6,53,50,16]).”
Antibacterial activities of zinc oxide nanoparticles against Escherichia coli O157:H7 (2009, background): “Of the inorganic antibacterial materials, metal oxides such as zinc oxide (ZnO) have received increasing attention in recent years, not only because they are stable under harsh processing conditions, but also because they are generally regarded as safe materials to human beings and animals (Stoimeno”
