Characterization of coating and antibacterial activity of CSNPs and PBSNPs against Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAOI.

Notes: (A) AFM image of PBSNPs coated on surgical blade, (B) antimicrobial assay displaying the antimicrobial activity of (a) blade coated with PBSNPs, (b) blade coated with CSNPs, (c) blade coated with PBSNPs followed by proteinase K treatment, and (d) uncoated blade against Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. Zone of inhibition is observed surrounding the blade.

Abbreviations: AFM, atomic force microscopy; PBSNPs, polymyxin B-capped silver nanoparticles; CSNPs, citrate-capped silver nanoparticles.
