Nanotechnology Platforms & Applications
- Nanomedicines for Antimicrobial Resistance
Nanomedicines—such as polymeric, lipid-based, metal, carbohydrate-derived, nucleic acid-based, and hydrogel nanomaterials—overcome resistance by enhancing antimicrobial efficacy, reducing toxicity, and disrupting mechanisms like drug efflux, biofilm formation, and intracellular persistence.RSC Publishing - Mesoporous Silica Nanocarriers (MSNs)
MSNs functionalized with polycationic dendrimers (e.g., G3) facilitate antibiotic delivery into Gram-negative bacteria and biofilms, improving infection treatment outcomes.arXiv - Multicomponent MSN Systems
Incorporating antibiotics and antimicrobial metal ions (e.g., levofloxacin + Zn²⁺ or Ag⁺) into dendrimer-functionalized MSNs delivers dual antimicrobial and—in some cases—osteogenic effects, achieving over 99% efficacy against both planktonic and biofilm bacteria.arXiv - Novel Antibacterial Nanomaterials
Plasmonic nanoparticle assemblies (e.g., lysozyme-coated gold NPs) with aggregation-dependent activity show enhanced antibacterial performance, supporting their role as nanozymes against resistant pathogens.arXiv - Broad Nanotechnology Applications
Nanomaterials address antimicrobial resistance (AMR), supporting diagnostics and treatment by exploiting nanoscale properties and multifunctionality.PubMedSAGE JournalsMDPI - Ultrathin Anti–Superbug Nanomaterials
Black phosphorus–based nanocoatings show >99% efficacy against drug-resistant bacteria like ‘golden staph’ in preclinical models, with potential uses in wound dressings and implants.RMIT UniversityScienceDaily
