Lysozyme-Modified Copper Phosphate Nanoflowers as Effective Antibacterial Agents for the Inactivation of Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris

<i>Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris</i> is a type of contaminating bacteria that can cause the spoilage of juice. To develop a nonthermal control method, lysozyme-modified copper phosphate nanoflowers (Ly@Cu<sub>3</sub>(PO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub> NFs) were fabricated. The microstructure and composition of the hybrids were characterized, and the antibacterial performance was further evaluated. Antibacterial results exhibited that Ly@Cu<sub>3</sub>(PO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub> NFs possessed effect
