“…Graphene's usefulness as an antibacterial agent has been demonstrated in various applications, including producing hybrid composites and as a catalyst in catalysis [121]. Graphene-based nanomaterials have also been recognized as potentially valuable ingredients for medicinal applications, notably as antibacterial agents [122]. Graphene oxide (GO), a graphene derivative, has also shown antibacterial action against multidrug-resistant superbugs isolated from sick people [123].…”

Since the Fourth Industrial Revolution, three-dimensional (3D) printing has become a game changer in manufacturing, particularly in bioengineering, integrating complex medical devices and tools with high precision, short operation times, and low cost. Antimicrobial materials are a promising alternative for combating the emergence of unforeseen illnesses and device-related infections. Natural antimicrobial materials, surface-treated biomaterials, and biomaterials incorporated with antimicrobial materials are extensively used to develop 3D-printed products. This review discusses the antimicrobial mechanisms of different materials by providing examples of the most commonly used antimicrobial materials in bioengineering and brief descriptions of their properties and biomedical applications. This review will help researchers to choose suitable antimicrobial agents for developing high-efficiency biomaterials for potential applications in medical devices, packaging materials, biomedical applications, and many more.
