Assessing Bacterial Respiration in Response to Silver Nanoparticles

Begin with a slurry containing bacterial cells treated with silver nanoparticles suspended in an exopolysaccharide matrix.Add a phosphate buffer to the slurry to maintain a stable pH.Next, introduce a solution containing glucose and a soluble redox indicator, then incubate the mixture. The redox indicator acts as an electron acceptor.During incubation, glucose and the redox indicator enter metabolically active bacterial cells.The cells utilize glucose during respiration, generating...
