Synthesis and Characterization of Silibinin-Loaded ZIF-8 Nanocomposites and Their Antibacterial Activity Against Escherichia coli: Insights into acrB, recA, and htpX Gene Expression
Background/Objectives: In this study, ZIF-8 and silibinin-loaded ZIF-8 nanostructures containing different concentrations of silibinin were successfully synthesized using a one-pot method and characterized by FT-IR, SEM, and EDX analyses. Methods: The antibacterial activities of the synthesized nanostructures were subs...
