“…Due to their remarkable photothermal performance, multimodal imaging ability, and excellent biocompatibility, MXenes have already been used for cancer theranostics . However, only a few reports to date have documented the antibacterial activity of MXenes,− which implies a need for further investigation of this aspect.…”

“…In a recent report, Jastrzebska et al. observed that the antibacterial activity of MXenes is probably influenced by the stoichiometry . Their results showed that the Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene can inhibit the growth of bacteria, in agreement with previous reports, whereas Ti 2 CT x MXene did not have any bacterial inhibition ability.…”

Since the "birth" of graphene in 2004, two-dimensional (2D) materials have attracted unprecedented research interest from scientists and have stimulated numerous applications in various fields, such as electronic/optical devices, energy storage, catalysis, sensors, and biomedicine. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the antimicrobial applications of 2D materials, such as graphene materials (GMs), layered double hydroxides (LDHs), transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), graphitic carbon nitride (g-C N ), MXenes, black phosphorus (BP), and their derivatives. This review also correlates the unique physicochemical properties of 2D materials with their antimicrobial activities. Finally, some current challenges and future perspectives in this field are also presented.

“…Following these reports, Pandey et al designed Ti 3 C 2 T x membranes decorated with Ag NPs, which have the anti‐flocculation capacity for rapid water disinfection . Recently, Jastrzebska et al found that the antibacterial behavior of MXenes could be affected via stoichiometry . The findings revealed that the Ti 3 C 2 T x have antibacterial activity, whereas Ti 2 CT x did not have such a capacity.…”

Water shortage and the energy crisis are two major global challenges in this century. The solution for water crisis should be based on a sustainable energy source. Solar‐inspired water purification is an efficient and green technology for tackling the water challenge using abundant and clean solar energy through photothermal evaporation‐induced water production, photoinduced antimicrobial treatment, and photocatalytic degradation of organic contaminants. 2D nanomaterials draw significant attention for their use these three water‐purification methods because of their large surface area, broadband and strong absorption in the solar spectral range, and efficient photothermal and photocatalytic transformation. Herein, the recent development of 2D nanomaterials applied in photothermal evaporation, photoinduced antimicrobial treatment, and photocatalytic capability is comprehensively overviewed. Various strategies in enhancing the light‐absorption and light‐conversion efficiency for different 2D nanomaterials are presented. The challenges and perspectives of these 2D nanomaterials are further discussed for practical water purification. This Review highlights these green energy–driven water‐purification methods based on emerging 2D materials.

“…Interestingly, aged Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene membrane showed improved antibacterial activity compared with that of freshly prepared membrane because of the synergistic effect between Ti 3 C 2 T x and TiO 2 /C formed on the surface . Studies revealed that the atomic structure of MXenes played an important role in their antibacterial activities through comparison between Ti 2 C and Ti 3 C 2 MXene . The synthesis of silver/MXene (Ti 3 C 2 T x ) NSs realized improved antibacterial activity of Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene .…”

Nowadays, microorganisms, including bacteria and viruses, are regarded as new environmental pollutants and pose serious threats to public health. Yet, traditional disinfection approaches for bacteria and viruses are generally ineffective. Furthermore, they exhibit the disadvantages of high-energy consumption, environmental pollution, high cost, and toxic byproduct generation. In this respect, nanomaterials display promising antimicrobial capabilities due to their unique properties and provide solutions to the abovementioned issues. Herein, recent progress in the development of 2D nanomaterials displaying antimicrobial capabilities is highlighted. The structures, morphologies, and performances of essential metal, graphene, and nitride-based 2D antibacterial nanomaterials are summarized in detail. In addition, possible antimicrobial mechanisms and the relationship between structure and antimicrobial efficiency are elaborated.
