Nanotechnology and their Evaluation of Bi-Functional Applications

Abstract

Nanotechnology has an ever-growing interest due to their utilizations in various platforms of science. With their unique features in structures and morphology, they have dominated the arena of research and development. In this review, we have delt with applications of nanomaterials as both photocatalytic and biological functions. The raising concerns pertaining to diseases and infections worldwide, our work was intended to review nanoparticles which could potentially target such problems. To study the preparations of nanoparticles both by chemical and biological methods. We have also observed for bactericidal ability against pathogenic organisms and found to be effective in controlling the growth of such microbes. Further as per the survey they were also found to have the ability to scavenge certain oxidants like DPPH, ABTS and NO etc. Keywords: Nanotechnology, antioxidant ability, antibacterial capacity, biocatalysis
