Nanotechnology strategy as antibacterial: A primer for the notice
Author(s): Tope Abraham Ibisanmi* and Jamiu Olaseni Aribisala
Background: Multidrug-Resistant (MDR) bacteria cause a serious threat to all fields of bioscience because it may result in treatment failure which might have severe consequences, especially in case of critical or special patients. The development of new antibacterial agents cropped up to be a complex process.
Main body: One of the most important aspects of modern field research is nanotechnology, it deals with synthesis, design and manipulation of particles structures ranging from approximately 1-100 nm. Nanoparticles (NPs) are of great importance in areas like health care, cosmetics, food and feed, environmental health etc. Nanoparticles matrix properties and constituent materials can be used to categorize them into inorganic and organic nanosystems. Techniques use within the synthesis of NPs includes; chemical, physical, chemistry, and bio.. Read More»
