0-275 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Cu and CuO NPs have also been shown to release Cu ions when in contact with live cells.170,171 The large surface that NPs develop due to their small size endows them with a reactivity higher than that of their bulk counterpart and would fasten the kinetics of Cu ion release. |
| T242 |
276-365 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The use of nanostructured Cu surfaces would further enhance their antimicrobial activity. |
| T243 |
366-536 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Moreover, these NPs could inactivate viruses if sprayed on contaminated surfaces or loaded onto textile fabrics to confer antimicrobial properties (masks, blouses, etc.). |
| T244 |
537-753 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Indeed, CuO-impregnated masks have shown remarkable anti-influenza virus (H1N1 and H9N2) activity under simulated breathing conditions,172 and the activity of these materials toward SARS-CoV-2 should be investigated. |
| T245 |
754-943 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The viral disinfectant properties of Ag NPs and CuO NPs is further enhanced when they are combined with Fe as bimetallic particles, due to coupled redox reactions between the two metals.173 |
