Antibacterial mechanism. SEM morphologies of bacteria, including a E. coli, b S. aureus, c MRSA and d MRSA biofilm, interacted with ZnPB-3 for L + D2 and L + D24 groups (scale bars = 200 nm). e TEM images of ultrathin section and corresponding EDS of MRSA treated with ZnPB-3 (scale bars = 1 μm). f Antibacterial mechanism of optimized synergistic effect of heat and ion release. Red arrows show severe damage and obvious cytoplasm leakage of bacteria. Source data are provided as a Source Data file
