Quaternary trimethyl chitosan-stabilized bismuth nanoparticles (QTMC-BiNPs) with positive surface charges were uniquely synthesized and fully characterized. In the synthesis, Quaternary Trimethyl Chitosan (QTMC), a water-soluble derivative of chitosan (CTS) was prepared using two-step reductive meth...
