albicans was exposed to CuNWs. CuNPs and CuNWs formed hierarchical copper oxide nanostructures growing in situ in the culture medium. Results suggest a dual mechanism for antifungal activity (i) free Cu ions act as a biocide, (ii) sharp edges of marigold-like petal nanostructures could injure the cellular wall and membrane and cause the death of the yeast. CuNPs and CuNWs inhibited the growth of the three strains of C. albicans tested. Moreover, CuNPs disrupted cell wall with leakage of the cytoplasmic content. Each concentr
