Abstract

Identification and detection of pathogens are the strategies towards the elucidation of infectious disease. There are growth and significance in the field of Nanomedicine. Present circumstance here is a need in research surrounding the topic of nanoparticle (NP) properties, mainly concerned with mechanisms of action with the bacterial cell. Metal NPs are now showing strong antibacterial activity. The bacterial cells have more resistance towards the antibiotics, which has met the research community to innovate novel antibiotic agents. The ability to detect micro-organisms has become an essential requirement in food-processing technology for clinical and environmental monitoring. In keeping with traditional methods of detection, those are time taking and develop the result solitary has to wait for long hours. Nowadays, there are many rapid and sensitive methods developed by the effort of researchers and inventors. Nanoparticles act as the alternative to pathogen detection. The size, shape and morphology of nanoparticles play a role for the pathogen nanoparticle communication. Here, in this review article, we discuss the nanoparticle and bacterial cell interaction. The different methods based on culture-based, optical sensing-based and nanoparticle-based methods all discussed in this chapter.
