Antibacterial properties of magnesium oxide nanoparticles and their composites

Abstract

Many different disciplines are very much interested in the antibacterial qualities of magnesium oxide nanoparticles (nano-MgO) and their composites. The mechanics behind these qualities and their uses will be covered in detail in this exposition. Although nano-particulate magnesium oxide (nano-MgO) has received much interest as an antibacterial agent, its exact antibacterial mechanisms are still not fully understood, requiring more in-depth research in the areas of stability, processability, and safety. There is a discernible trend in the field of antibacterial materials that combines conventional materials with natural elements. As a newly developed ceramic antibacterial agent with distinct antibacterial properties and a wide range of uses, nano-MgO has become a major area of research interest. As a result, this paper summarizes the many approaches to synthesizing nano-MgO powder, analyzes its antibacterial properties, and offers a current assessment of new developments in the field and composite manufacturing methods. Moreover, it carefully points out common problems and suggests directions for future study. It is essential to the search for cutting-edge antibacterial materials because of its many qualities and wide range of potential uses. NanoMgO will play an essential role in determining the direction of antibacterial agents in the future, given the mounting concern over antibiotic resistance and the demand for environmentally friendly substitutes. This study explores the subtleties of nano-MgO and antibacterial activity in the realm of antibacterial materials. While navigating the complexities of a changing world, understanding and harnessing the potential of nano-MgO is vital for promoting healthier and more sustainable living environments.
