“…Many GMs-based composites with metals, natural or synthetic polymers, sand, antibiotics, enzymes, hydroxyapatite, and hydrogels have been developed to accentuate antibacterial properties as well as to improve other critical characteristics for different applications such as thermal stability, porosity, and mechanical resistance ( Poornima Parvathi et al., 2015 ; Lim et al., 2012 ; Liu et al., 2014 ; Janković et al., 2015 ; Duan et al., 2015b ; Rojas-Andrade et al., 2017 ; Mohammed et al., 2020 ). Three main types of GM composites have been fabricated: dispersion, film, and hydrogel.…”
