Abstract
To control microbial infection, a number of novel tactics have been used. Increasingly, a new class of materials called metal oxide nanoparticles is being used. being acknowledged for its potential in health-related applications and research. According to recent investigations, metal oxides Nps that have been properly synthesized have strong antibacterial activity. Zinc oxide (ZnO) offers an array of exceptional advantages that make it a prized material across various fields. With its affordable cost, excellent gas sensing capabilities, and potent photocatalytic activity, ZnO proves to be a valuable asset in numerous applications. Its antimicrobial qualities ensure effective defense against harmful microorganisms, while the ability to create structures with unique optical features and act as a catalyst in small quantities adds to its versatility. Moreover, being non-toxic, ZnO is environmentally friendly and safe for use, making it an all-round remarkable substance with diverse practical uses.
Keywords: ZNO-NP, Resistance to Antibiotics, Metal Nanoparticles.
