Visualising the Invisible: Active Sites in Antibacterial Nanomaterials

2024-12-20 - 2024-12

Interest in antibacterial nanomaterials has surged due to the growing threat of antibiotic-resistant microbes. A particularly promising strategy involves the use of nanomaterials that generate reactive oxygen species upon exposure to light, effectively combating microorganisms. However, a key challenge lies in translating the properties observed at the molecular level to the material as a whole. Researchers at the University of Duisburg-Essen, led by Junior Professor Dr. Anzhela Galstyan, have made significant progress in addressing this challenge. Using fluorescence lifetime microscopy, they visualised the active sites of these materials for the first time, enabling them to establish correlations between activity and material properties. Their findings were recently published in Angewandte Chemie.
