“…Over the last decade, other antimicrobial hybrid derivatives, such as nanocellulose/metal and nanocellulose/oxide metal, have attracted the attention of several researchers and industries due to their environmentally friendly status and low cost compared to synthetic polymer- (e.g., polylactic- co -glycolic acid (PLGA), polyvinylalcohol (PVA), poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether- block -poly(lactide- co -glycolide) (mPEG-PLGA), chitosan, gelatin) encapsulated MNPs [ 106 , 107 , 108 , 109 , 110 , 111 , 112 , 113 ]. Cellulose is a ubiquitous natural polymer which can be produced from a broad range of biomass.…”

Metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) produced by green synthesis using plant extracts have attracted huge interest in the scientific community due to their excellent antibacterial, antifungal and antibiofilm activities. To evaluate these pharmacological properties, several methods or protocols have been successfully developed and implemented. Although these protocols were mostly inspired by the guidelines from national and international regulatory bodies, they suffer from a glaring absence of standardization of the experimental conditions. This situation leads to a lack of reproducibility and comparability of data from different study settings. To minimize these problems, guidelines for the antimicrobial and antibiofilm evaluation of MNPs should be developed by specialists in the field. Being aware of the immensity of the workload and the efforts required to achieve this, we set out to undertake a meticulous literature review of different experimental protocols and laboratory conditions used for the antimicrobial and antibiofilm evaluation of MNPs that could be used as a basis for future guidelines. This review also brings together all the discrepancies resulting from the different experimental designs and emphasizes their impact on the biological activities as well as their interpretation. Finally, the paper proposes a general overview that requires extensive experimental investigations to set the stage for the future development of effective antimicrobial MNPs using green synthesis.

Despite the many advancements in the pharmaceutical and medical fields and the development of numerous antimicrobial drugs aimed to suppress and destroy pathogenic microorganisms, infectious diseases still represent a major health threat affecting millions of lives daily. In addition to the limitations of antimicrobial drugs associated with low transportation rate, water solubility, oral bioavailability and stability, inefficient drug targeting, considerable toxicity, and limited patient compliance, the major cause for their inefficiency is the antimicrobial resistance of microorganisms. In this context, the risk of a pre-antibiotic era is a real possibility. For this reason, the research focus has shifted toward the discovery and development of novel and alternative antimicrobial agents that could overcome the challenges associated with conventional drugs. Nanotechnology is a possible alternative, as there is significant evidence of the broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity of nanomaterials and nanoparticles in particular. Moreover, owing to their considerable advantages regarding their efficient cargo dissolving, entrapment, encapsulation, or surface attachment, the possibility of forming antimicrobial groups for specific targeting and destruction, biocompatibility and biodegradability, low toxicity, and synergistic therapy, polymeric nanoparticles have received considerable attention as potential antimicrobial drug delivery agents. In this context, the aim of this paper is to provide an up-to-date overview of the most recent studies investigating polymeric nanoparticles designed for antimicrobial therapies, describing both their targeting strategies and their effects.

“…[82,83] In addition, their porous structure and the presence of some functional groups also enhance surface adsorption, which makes the dye molecules easily accessible on the surface of the photocatalyst. [58,84,85] Thus, the photocatalytic dye degradation reaction by such polymer/metal oxide hybrid nanocomposite is solely sensitized by metal oxides.

The use of dyes increases with increasing dye processing industries, especially with textile industries. The persistent nature, environmental toxicity, and carcinogenicity of dyes become the current issue of managing their impact on the ecosystem. Hence various methods of discharging have been reported. Most of the technologies were not effective in the removal process and generate secondary pollutants. However, adsorption supported photocatalytic process becomes a feasible, eco‐friendly, and appropriate technique. Based on these directions, developing such photocatalytic material for dye removal becomes the trend in current research. Thus, this review deals with dye removal through an adsorptive‐assisted photocatalytic process by various hybrid nanocomposite photocatalysts. Particular emphasis on photocatalytic dye degradation progresses by polymer/metal oxide hybrid nanocomposite photocatalysts (metal oxide nanoparticles with conductive, nonconductive, and both conductive & non‐conductive polymers composites) synthesis and dye degradation mechanisms. Besides, the kinetics, efficiency of degradation, and related factors were also assessed. Conversion of dyes to water, carbon dioxide, and other mineralized non‐toxic pollutants makes this technique the most preferred.
