Ecotoxicity of as‐synthesised copper nanoparticles on soil bacteria by Purnima Sharma, Dinesh Goyal, Bhupendra Chudasama

“…MIC and MBC tests reveal that Gram‐negative P. fluorescens was more sensitive to CuNPs as compared to Gram positive B. subtilis mainly due to the differences in their cell wall structure and composition. CuNPs with smaller hydrodynamic size (11.34 nm) were highly toxic as revealed by MIC, MBC tests, cytoplasmic leakage and ROS assays, which may be due to the higher active surface area of CuNPs and greater membrane penetration. …”
