Medicinal Plant-Based Nanotechnology for Antimicrobial, Antifungal, and Biomedical Applications: Current Progress and Future Perspectives
1. Introduction Nanotechnology has revolutionized modern scientific research through the manipulation of materials at the nanoscale level, generally ranging between 1 and 100 nm. Nanomaterials possess unique physicochemical, optical, catalytic, electrical, and biological properties that differ significantly from their bulk counterparts due to their extremely small particle size and high surface-area-to-volume ratio. These distinctive characteristics …
