Abstract
Bacterial infection has become one of the leading causes of death worldwide, particularly in low-income countries. Despite the fact that antibiotics have provided successful management in bacterial infections, the long-term overconsumption and abuse of antibiotics has contributed to the emergence of multidrug resistant bacteria. To address this challenge, nanomaterials with intrinsic antibacterial properties or that serve as drug carriers have been substantially developed as an alternative to fight against bacterial infection. Systematically and deeply understanding the antibacterial mechanisms of nanomaterials is extremely important for designing new therapeutics. Recently, nanomaterials-mediated targeted…
