Antimicrobial Activity of Amino Acid-Capped Zinc and Copper Sulphide Nanoparticles

Antimicrobial Activity of Amino Acid-Capped Zinc and Copper Sulphide Nanoparticles

The synthesis of polydispersed zinc sulphide and copper sulphide nanocrystals capped with polar L-alanine (Aln) and l-aspartic acid (Asp) molecules is reported. The resulting nanocrystals were characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), photoluminescence (PL), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmi...
