Max. control until 2 h Increasing concentration of nanoparticles has no effect on bacterial strains | Max. control until 2 h Growth is increased with the increasing concentration of nanoparticles | Max control until 4 h Increasing concentration of nanoparticles has no significant effect on bacterial strains | No control over time Growth is increased with the increasing concentration of nanoparticles | Increasing concentration supports the growth of bacterial strains for AuNPs. No effect of concentration is observed for AgNPs | |
Max. control at 1 h Overall good control 10 μl are sufficient to control | Control of growth at 12 h Minimum growth at 10 μl, increases with additional AuNPs, decreases at 100 μl | Good control at 4 h Growth increases with time 70 μl are required to control the growth | No control over time Growth decreases at 100 μl of AuNPs | AgNP conjugates are best effective against | |
Max. control at 1 h Overall good control 10 μl is sufficient to control | Minor effects on control of growth at 12 h No concentration effects | Good control at 4 h Growth increases with time 70 μl is required to control the growth | No control over time Growth increases with the addition of AuNPs, decreases at 100 μl of AuNPs | Same as above (ciprofloxacin) | |
Max. control at 1 h Growth increases with time 50 μl is required to control the growth | No control over time No effect of AuNPs | Good control at 4 h Growth increases with time 70 μl is required to control the growth | No control over time Growth slightly increases with the addition of AuNPs, decreases at 100 μl of AuNPs | AgNP conjugates are moderately effective against | |
Max. control at 1 h Growth increases with time 50 μl is required to control the growth | Control of growth at 12 h Growth increases with the addition of AuNPs, minimum at 60 μl, decreases at 100 μl of AuNPs | Good control at 4 h Growth increases with time after 8 h 70 μl is required to control the growth | No control over time Growth slightly increases with the addition of AuNPs, decreases at 100 μl of AuNPs | Same as above (norfloxacin) | |
Max. control at 1 h with controlled growth until 4 h, afterward growth increases with time 40 μl is required to control the growth | No control over time Growth increases with the addition of AuNPs | Growth is observed with time 50 μl is required to control the growth | No control over time Growth slightly increases with the addition of AuNPs, decreases at 100 μl of AuNPs | Same as above (norfloxacin and ofloxacin) |
