“…These concerns resulted in further scientific disciplines, including nanotoxicology and nanomedicine (Sikkander and Razak, 2021). Nanotoxicology studies potential hazardous effects of nanoparticles on humans and the environment, including preventing and ameliorating such hazardous effects (Muthuraman and Kaur, 2017). Nanomedicine, the new branch of medical science, was developed to study the benefits and risks of nanomaterials being utilised in medicine and medical devices; it includes subsectors such as medical diagnosis, bioimaging, and tissue engineering (Anik et al, 2020;Asha, 2020).…”

Nanotechnology is the branch of science and engineering that involves the study of particles at a dimension of as low as between 1 and 100 nanometers. These fine particles, referred to as nanoparticles, mostly are undetectable by human eyeand they find wide application in various fields ranging from drug delivery and chemotherapy, magnetism, optics, because of their remarkable traits and endearing properties they possess.This study therefore reviews the recent advancements in nanotechnology and nanoparticles. It dealt with different approaches in synthesis nanoparticles. The physicochemical properties and classifications of nanoparticleswere highlighted in the review.

“…Furthermore, MNWs have shown a high internalization by cells compared to other magnetic nanoparticles, such as iron oxide nanoparticles, improving the enrichment and multiplex-ing yield [82][83][84]. Another important form of nanoparticles is the one known as nanosheets, which are arranged as a single-or multiple-layer two-dimensional array of atoms or molecules [85]. Nevertheless, the magnetic behaviors of the 2D nanosheets in isolated single-layer forms are unclear at the moment [86].…”

In recent years, polymer nanocomposites produced by combining nanofillers and a polymeric matrix are emerging as interesting materials. Polymeric composites have a wide range of applications due to the outstanding and enhanced properties that are obtained thanks to the introduction of nanoparticles. Therefore, understanding the filler-matrix relationship is an important factor in the continued growth of this scientific area and the development of new materials with desired properties and specific applications. Due to their performance in response to a magnetic field magnetic nanocomposites represent an important class of functional nanocomposites. Due to their properties, magnetic nanocomposites have found numerous applications in biomedical applications such as drug delivery, theranostics, etc. This article aims to provide an overview of the filler-polymeric matrix relationship, with a special focus on magnetic nanocomposites and their potential applications in the biomedical field.

“…The size and shape of MNPs are the key characteristics that influence their pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, body clearance, and toxicity [ 78 ]. Based on their size, MNPs are classified into superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, and a subset size of monocrystalline iron oxide nanoparticles [ 79 , 80 ]. Thus, size plays a fundamental role in the magnetic properties of MNPs and their subsequent response to magnetic fields.…”

Essential oils (EOs) have attracted considerable interest in the past few years, with increasing evidence of their antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, and insecticidal effects. However, as they are highly volatile, the administration of EOs to achieve the desired effects is challenging. Therefore, nanotechnology-based strategies for developing nanoscaled carriers for their efficient delivery might offer potential solutions. Owing to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, low toxicity, ability to target a tissue specifically, and primary structures that allow for the attachment of various therapeutics, magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) are an example of such nanocarriers that could be used for the efficient delivery of EOs for antimicrobial therapies. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the use of EOs as antibacterial agents when coupled with magnetite nanoparticles (NPs), emphasizing the synthesis, properties and functionalization of such NPs to enhance their efficiency. In this manner, systems comprising EOs and MNPs could offer potential solutions that could overcome the challenges associated with biofilm formation on prosthetic devices and antibiotic-resistant bacteria by ensuring a controlled and sustained release of the antibacterial agents.
