Journal ArticleDOI
Copper nanoparticles and copper ions promote horizontal transfer of plasmid-mediated multi-antibiotic resistance genes across bacterial genera.
TL;DR: In conclusion, this study reports both CuO NPs and copper ions (Cu2+) could stimulate the conjugative transfer of multiple-drug resistance genes and suggests the over-production of reactive oxygen species played a crucial role in promoting conjugatives transfer.
