Photoinduced Ce–MoS2/WO3 nanocomposites with enhanced photodynamic and enzyme-like activity for rapid sterilization

Unveiling the antibacterial strategies and mechanisms of MoS2: a comprehensive analysis and future directions

“…Cu ion doping improves the electronic transport of MoS 2 , enabling the photogenerated electrons to transfer promptly to the Cu ions, thereby enhancing the photoelectric current of the MoS 2 and reducing the recombination of photogenerated electron–hole pairs, resulting in increased ROS and an enhanced antibacterial performance of MoS 2 . Moreover, Ce-MoS 2 /WO 3 nanocomposites with excellent photocatalytic antibacterial have been designed by our group, 94 as shown in Fig. 3(e–k).…”

“…Based on the above theories, three conventional type-II heterojunctions have been designed in our recent research. Firstly, Ce-doped MoS 2 was incorporated into WO 3 , 94 as shown in Fig. 6(a–e).…”

Recent advances in nanomaterial-mediated bacterial molecular action and their applications in wound therapy

“…At present, highly active antibacterial nanomaterials have attracted growing interest as antibacterial agents, including carbon-based nanomaterials, 35-44 noble metal nanomaterials, [45][46][47][48][49][50][51] metal oxide nanomaterials, [52][53][54][55][56][57] transition metal sulfides, [58][59][60] metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) 61,62 as well as composite nanomaterials (Table 1). [63][64][65][66][67][68] The currently studied antibacterial mechanisms mainly involve the following aspects: physical penetration, physical wrapping, photothermal ablation, and oxidative stress (Fig.…”
