| Research Abstract |
We succeeded in the synthesis of a silver nanoparticle / silver titanate nanotube nanocomposite thin film on a titanium metal. We revealed its high apatite forming ability and high antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The film is particularly promising as an antibacterial implant. Straight and helical ruthenium compound / surfactant nanocomposite nanotubes were synthesized. The nanotubes were transformed into ruthenium dioxide and metallic ruthenium, while maintaining their nanotubular morphology.
