Investigating the enzymatic mechanism of platinum nanoparticle synthesis in sulfate-reducing bacteria

Efforts to discover an efficient yet environmentally friendly mode of metal nanoparticle (NP) synthesis are increasing rapidly. A ‘green’ route that avoids the high costs, toxic wastes and complicated protocols associated with chemical synthesis methods is therefore highly sought after. A biological...
