Chitin and chitosan: Properties and applications
TL;DR: Chitin is the second most important natural polymer in the world as mentioned in this paper, and the main sources of chitin are two marine crustaceans, shrimp and crabs, which are used for food, cosmetics, biomedical and pharmaceutical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
A mechanistic study of the antibacterial effect of silver ions on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.
TL;DR: The existence of elements of silver and sulfur in the electron-dense granules and cytoplasm detected by X-ray microanalysis suggested the antibacterial mechanism of silver: DNA lost its replication ability and the protein became inactivated after Ag(+) treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibacterial activity and mechanism of silver nanoparticles on Escherichia coli.
TL;DR: The combined results suggested that SNPs may damage the structure of bacterial cell membrane and depress the activity of some membranous enzymes, which cause E. coli bacteria to die eventually.
