Bacteria-Derived Carbon Dots Inhibit Biofilm Formation of Escherichia coli without Affecting Cell Growth
Biofilms are deleterious in many biomedical and industrial applications and prevention of their formation has been a pressing challenge. Here, carbon dots, CDs-LP that were easily synthesized from the biomass of Lactobacillus plantarum by one-step hydrothermal carbonization, were demonstrated to pre...
