The present project aims to synthesize silica nanoparticles (SiO2NPs) andfunctionalize their surface with different chemical groups (mercapto, glycidyl,isocyanate, phenylethyl and amino) based on the objective of understanding how thedifferent functional groups favor the interaction of nanoparticles with the envelope ofdifferent bacteria. The functionalization of SiO2NPs with different fu…
This research project intends to investigate tailored silica nanoparticle surface functionalization in order improve penetration of these particles into biofilms of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, with goal of disrupting these films and killing the bacteria. Two classes of nanoparticles will be tested: (1) silica nanoparticles with different chemical functionalities (amine, is…
