Photosensitive properties,synergistic antibacterial abilities of intelligent response-type self-assembled nanoparticle TiO 2 @V 2 O 5

Abstract

Representative pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) are widespread in nature and pose a threat to human health. To control the propagation of these pathogens from the source, the key is to design broad-spectrum antibacterial materials to reduce the serious damage of pathogenic bacteria. At present, more and more nanoparticles are widely researched and applied due to their multi-pathway antibacterial properties, such as regulating physiology, biochemistry and physical chemistry. In this work, we synthesized a uniformly dispersed and stable spherical nanoparticle (TiO₂@V₂O₅) synthesized by self-assembly of tianium dioxide and vanadium pentoxide. Based on its excellent photosensitive properties, TiO₂@V₂O₅ nanoparticles have showed excellent antibacterial properties under the light irradiation due to the production of hydroxyl radicals in antibacterial and mechanism tests. In addtion, related cell and plant experiments have showed that TiO₂@V₂O₅ nanoparticles are excellent biocompatible materials, it could be widely used in environmental pollution control, limiting the serious damage caused by pathogens.
