Abstract
This study investigated the impact of CdS nanoparticles (NPs) on Escherichia coli growth and metabolism under varying conditions. Under illumination, CdS NPs significantly enhanced bacterial growth, glucose assimilation, and biomass accumulation. Key metabolic and stress response genes showed increased expression, indicating improved ATP synthesis and oxidative stress resistance. Additionally, CdS NPs enhanced the electrochemical properties of E. coli, promoting efficient electron transfer. No significant changes were observed in the dark. These findings suggest that light-activated CdS NPs promote E. coli growth and metabolic efficiency by upregulating crucial genes involved in growth and oxidative stress management.
期刊介绍：
Biology (ISSN 2079-7737) is an international, peer-reviewed, quick-refereeing open access journal of Biological Science published by MDPI online. It publishes reviews, research papers and communications in all areas of biology and at the interface of related disciplines. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files regarding the full details of the experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
