Observation of excellent photocatalytic and antibacterial activity of Ag doped ZnO nanoparticles

Abstract

Here, we explore the structural and optical properties of Ag-doped ZnO nanoparticles. We looked at the photocatalytic activity for degrading Methylene Blue and the antibacterial effectiveness against bacterial strains, including Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis .
