Killing of bacteria by copper surfaces involves dissolved copper.

Cristina Molteni1, Helge K Abicht, Marc Solioz.   

Abstract

Bacteria are rapidly killed on copper surfaces. However, the mechanism of this process remains unclear. Using Enterococcus hirae, the effect of inactivation of copper homeostatic genes and of medium compositions on survival and copper dissolution was tested. The results support a role for dissolved copper ions in killing.
