Cost-effective smart microfluidic device with immobilized silver nanoparticles and embedded UV-light sources for synergistic water disinfection effects

This journal is © The Royal Society of Chemistry..

A novel microfluidic-device for water disinfection via diverse physiochemical effects has been demonstrated. Firstly, a microfluidic device with embedded, multiple germicidal UV-LEDs was fabricated through the innovatively modified cost-effective soft-lithography process. Further, synthesised silver nanoparticles were immobilized within its inner microchannel surface. Disinfection results proved the synergistic bactericidal effect of coated AgNPs and coupled UV-light, while a suspension of bacterial strains, were passed through the micro-device.
