A critical review on zinc oxide nanoparticles: Synthesis, properties and biomedical applications

ZnO-NPs is an inorganic metal oxide that meets as medicine, a preservative in packaging, as well as an antibacterial agent without risk. The qualities of ZnO-NPs are influenced by their size, shape, concentration, and length of contact with the bacterial cell. There are many uses for ZnO including food technology, agriculture, cosmetology, optoelectronics, drug transporters, and antibacterial agents. The antibacterial potential of ZnO-NPs mediated by plant extracts is superior against bacterial and fungal infections and human diseases.
