Abstract

Materials capable of releasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) can display antibacterial and anticancer activity, and may also have anti-oxidant capacity if they suppress intracellular ROS (e.g. nitric oxide, NO) resulting in anti-inflammatory activity. Herein we report silver phosphate (Ag3PO4)/polyindole (Pln) nanocomposites which display antibacterial, anticancer and anti-inflammatory activity, and have therefore potential for a variety of biomedical applications.
