Abstract :
Copper monodispersed nanoparticles (2–
5 nm) embedded into submicron particles of sepiolite
(Mg8Si12O30(OH)4(H2O)4Æ8H2O), suitable to be used
for biological applications have been obtained after a
specific treatment and subsequent reduction process.
Cu/Sepiolite particles have revealed as a strong bactericide
(similar to Triclosan) so that they were able to
decrease the starting microorganism concentrations of
Staphylococcus aureus or Escherichia coli by 99.9%.
