Nanoparticles of Bioactive Metals/Metal Oxides and Their Nanocomposites with Antibacterial Drugs for Biomedical Applications

Abstract: The increasing appearance of new strains of microorganisms resistant to the action of existing antibiotics is a modern problem that requires urgent decision. A promising potential solution is the use of nanoparticles of bioactive metals and their oxides as new antibacterial agents, since they are capable of affecting pathogenic microorganisms by mechanisms different from the mechanisms of action of antibiotics. Inorganic nanoparticles possess a wide spectrum of antibacterial activity. These particles can be ea… Show more

“…Recently, numerous studies have suggested that Ag-NPs exhibit significant antimicrobial actions, specifically against bacterial infections [ 45 , 46 , 47 ]. Ag-NPs effectively inhibit a wide spectrum of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, such as Bacillus cereus , Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus , Streptococcus agalactiae, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa , and others [ 48 ]. Silver NPs have shown their effectiveness against resistant and multidrug-resistant microorganisms ( Table 1 ).…”

“…To further improve imaging sensitivity and efficiency of MRI, various probes that are composed of metals and metal oxides and able to enhance proton relaxation in targeted tissues have been developed, including synthetic magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) by sophisticated chemical modifications, [ 120,121 ] metalloprotein‐based contrast agents by protein‐metal interactions, [ 122 ] and bacteria and bacterial derivatives‐based probes by both surface decoration and genetic modification. [ 123 ] Due to their excellent biomedical capabilities, including a high proportion of surface atoms, biodegradability, biocompatibility, safety, chemical stability, and rapid response, magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles consisting of maghemite (γ‐Fe 2 O 3 ) or magnetite (Fe 3 O 4 ) have been one of the most common MNPs for MRI, which can be either super paramagnetic or ferromagnetic.…”

“…Inorganic NPs are made up of inorganic oxides of Si, Ag, Au, Zn, Mg, Mn, Cu, Se, Al, or Ti and hence they differ in shape, size, solubility and stability. Their characteristics are also defined by pH, temperature, reduction time, concentration of the reducing agent, and aggregation behaviour that impact their antimicrobial potency [66,67]. For example, iron oxide NPs (FeONPs) are allied with DNA hybridization technique to heighten the capturing of 16S ribosomal RNA gene of bacteria [68].…”
