What is it about?

This pragmatic study aims to synthesize nanoparticles from three noble metal elements as a core@shell of gold, silver, and palladium, and to study their optical, structural, and morphological properties, as well as to study the effect of these nanoparticles as antibacterial agents.

Why is it important?

It was found that the prepared nanoparticles exhibit antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria better than when compared to their activity when prepared as bimetallic or monometallic, potentially enabling their use in biomedical applications. According to the literature, this is the first time that the preparation of three nanoparticles of noble metals of gold, silver, and palladium as core–shell in deionized water using the pulsed laser ablation method has been reported.
