Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was conducted to clarify the mechanism of metal nanoparticle formation in bacteria and to apply it to the synthesis of CdS, CsSe, and CdTe nanoparticles, which can be used as materials for solar cells. We analyzed the tellurate reduction mechanism in bacteria and applied a cysteine desulfurase enzyme to the effective synthesis of metal nanoparticles under mild conditions.
