Antibacterial activity of prepared NPs against S. aureus. (a) Zone of inhibition: (A) control untreated bacterial strain. The bacterial strains were treated with NPs as follows: (B) ZnO NPs, (C) Cur NPs, (D) Au NPs, (E) Au@ZnO NPs, and (F) Cur-Au@ZnO NPs. (b) A chart diagram for the same results, illustrating the S. aureus growth rate for the same treated groups. The data are shown as the mean ± SD. ∗∗p < 0.01, ∗∗∗p < 0.001, and ∗∗∗∗p < 0.0001.
