Review on Recent Developments in Carbides' Nanoparticles for Antibacterial Applications

965–971 (2025)

PACS numbers: 81.05.Je, 87.19.xb, 87.85.Rs

The carbides' nanoparticles are characterized by a distinguish properties that make them appropriate for use in a variety of industrial and medicinal applications. Some of these unique characteristics of the carbides are high antibacterial and antimicrobial activities, chemically inert and high hardness. In this review, the properties, advantages, and limitations of carbides' nanoparticles for antibacterial applications are discussed. The carbides' nanoparticles for previous studies possess strong antimicrobial action against both gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms.

KEY WORDS: carbides, nanoparticles, antibacterial range, gram-negative bacteria, gram-positive bacteria
