How Does Nanotechnology Enhance Antimicrobial Treatments?
Nanotechnology enhances antimicrobial treatments by improving the effectiveness and specificity of antimicrobial agents. Nanoparticles, due to their small size and large surface area, can easily interact with microbial cells, leading to better antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties. Commonly used nanoparticles include silver nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles, and zinc oxide nanoparticles.
