Photocatalytic Antibacterial Activity of TiO2, TiO2+CuO, and WO3 +CuO -Evaluation of Codoping Effect

Under UV irradiation to irritate active oxygen from the agents, the antibacterial efficacy of the photocatalysts TiO2, TiO2+CuO, and WO3+CuO was tested against E. coli, K. pneumoniae, MRSA, and P. aeruginosa. Drawing a bacterial growth curve, colony counting on a cultivated Petri dish, calculating generation time in liquid medium, and evaluating the bacteria’s survival rate…
