Monitoring the bactericidal effect of UV-A photocatalysis: A first approach through 1D and 2D protein electrophoresis

The bactericidal effect of UV-A photocatalysis is studied through the 1D and 2D protein electrophoresis biochemical approach over model and bacterial proteins, which shows that a majority of proteins are heavily and non-specifically damaged. This suggests that the emergence of resistance to this treatment should be almost impossible.
