“…10−12 Moreover, positively charged Mg(OH) 2 also electrostatically attracts bacteria, degrades cell walls' integrity, and ultimately kills pathogens. The antibacterial process was also attributed to ROS formation, which disturbs membrane function and eventually kills bacteria 13,14 sheets that exhibited bactericidal potential against pathogens (S. aureus and E. coli). 15 The co-precipitation process appears to be environmentally friendly and cost-effective, which allows modifying particle size distribution, surface area, morphology, and agglomeration.…”
