We report the first observation of a plasma assisted, one-step deposition of nanometric capsules. The deposited spherical structures contain vancomycin and can be prepared by means of an aerosol-assisted atmospheric pressure Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD) reactor. The core-shell structure of the nano-capsules is clearly attested by scanning electron and confocal microscopy.

Abstract

We report the first observation of a plasma assisted, one-step deposition of nanometric capsules. The deposited spherical structures contain vancomycin and can be prepared by means of an aerosol-assisted atmospheric pressure Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD) reactor. The core-shell structure of the nano-capsules is clearly attested by scanning electron and confocal microscopy.
