Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) show significant promise as antibacterial agents, but their application is hindered by several limitations, including potential cytotoxicity at high concentrations, well concerns regarding aggregation and reusability. In this study, sodium titanate (NTO) ultralong nanotubes were utilized both a photocatalyst support for GQDs. The NTO/GQDs heterojunction was formed embedding GQDs nanoplates onto the walls of NTO nanotubes. This integration significantly improved visible light absorption enhanced separation transfer electron–hole pairs, leading to an efficient photocatalytic process. NTO/GQD-8 self-supporting membrane composed these demonstrated outstanding efficiency (99.99%) against E. coli exhibited remarkable cycling stability. Radical scavenging experiments revealed that ∙OH e− primary reactive species driving Notably, NTO/GQDs-8 distinct outcomes. After treatment with NTO/GQDs-8, cells completely fragmented, no intact cell structures remaining due synergy effect GQDs’ physical cutting during treatment.
