Antibacterial activities of gold and silver nanoparticles against Escherichia coli and bacillus Calmette-Guérin

Background Diseases such as tuberculosis (TB) have always had a large impact on human health. Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is used as a surrogate for TB during the development of anti-TB drugs. Nanoparticles (NPs) have attracted great interest in drug development. The purpose of this study was to...
