Emerging Nanotechnologies in Combating Antimicrobial Resistance: Beyond Silver Nanoparticles
apeutic alternatives to traditional antibiotics. Nanotechnology, especially the development and application of
nanoparticles (NPs)—has emerged as a versatile platform to counteract bacterial resistance by disrupting bio-
film formation, modulating virulence factors, and enhancing drug delivery mechanisms. This research explores
the rapid advancements in nanotechnologies that extend beyond the extensively studied silver nanoparticles
(AgNPs). It focuses on the mechanisms of action, synthesis strategies, and antimicrobial applications of alter-
native nanomaterials such as gold, zinc oxide, and graphene-based nanoparticles. Comparative findings from
recent studies are summarized in tables and figures, highlighting their antimicrobial efficacy, safety profiles, and
potential f
