Several types of nanoparticles were found to possess potent antimicrobial properties. However diamond nanoparticles (DNPs) have only been little studied so far. The mechanism of their interaction with bacteria is completely unknown. In our work we focused on investigation of antibacterial activity of DNPs and the mechanism of their action against Eschericha coli (model gram negative bacterium) and Bacillus subtilis (model gram positive bacterium). We tested different sizes (5 - 50 nm) and forms (non-oxidized/oxidized) of DNPs for their activity against both model bacteria.
