Post-charging antibacterial mechanism analysis. a, b Total discharging capacity of TNT-C-15 in a 0ā20āmin and b 6ā20āmin after AC/DC+ācharging for 0.5, 5, and 15āmin (*denotes Pā<ā0.05, StudentĀ tĀ test). c Potential curves of DC+ charged TNT-C-15, DC+ charged TNT, AC charged TNT-C-15, AC charged TNT, DCā charged TNT-C-15 and DCā charged TNT with solid/dashed lines denoting with/without bacteria, respectively. The pre-charging time is 15āmin. d ORP in the LB medium during and after the charging process (**denotes Pā<ā0.01 compared with the control group, Student t test). All error barsā=ās.d. (nā=ā3)
