Metal nanoparticles, such as silver and copper nanoparticles (Ag and Cu NPs), have antibacterial properties that inhibit the growth of bacterial strains. Incorporating these nanoparticles on material surfaces increases the overall property and performance of the material. However, profiling the anti...
