Nanotechnology-based approaches for antibacterial therapy.

The technique of antimicrobial therapy action is to stop or slow the growth of bacteria that can kill people, animals, and crops. The most widely used antibacterial agents are antibiotics. Even though these antimicrobial medications are quite effective, there are still certain barriers or challenges in using them effectively. To solve these issues, new antimicrobial drug molecules that don't have side effects or resistance are needed. These days, antimicrobial drugs placed in nanosized vehicles, or nanomedicine, made of different metal and metallic oxides as well as of polymer, carbon or lipid-based may be used to address these issues with conventional therapy and delivery techniques. This review focuses on the importance of nanotechnology in antimicrobial therapy, nanoparticles (NPs) used in this therapy, their mode of action, and the recent advancement in nanotechnology for antimicrobial therapy.
