Abstract
⺠Remarkable antimicrobial activity of photorradiated Pt-TiO2 coated thin film. ⺠Pt impregnation-exhibits superior photoactivity than Pt photodeposition onto TiO2. ⺠Photokilling of E. coli cells occur within 10 min of UV (640 μW cmâ2) irradiation. ⺠Size and nature of Pt deposition control the bactericidal effect of TiO2 catalyst. ⺠Photodissolution of bacterial surface is occurred on prolong UV light exposure.
