Photobactericidal activity activated by thiolated gold nanoclusters at low flux levels of white light

Antibiotic resistant bacteria have increased the interest in the development of antibacterial surfaces to reduce the risk of infection. Here, the authors report on a thiolated gold nanocluster enhanced crystal violet polymer with bactericidal properties under low level white light illumination.
