This book focuses on nanomaterials with antibacterial properties. Antibacterial resistance is a growing concern that poses a serious threat to public health worldwide. This book looks at the fabrication, material's properties, and characterization of a range of metallic, bimetallic, and metal-oxide-based nanomaterials that can be exploited for their antimicrobial properties. A key focus of this book is its emphasis on 'green' synthesis of nanomaterials, as many conventional routes of nanomaterial fabrication do not fulfill key sustainability criteria in terms of their toxicity and lack of eco-friendliness. Additionally, this book introduces the application of nanoparticles to veterinary medicine. Given the ever-increasing global livestock population coupled with the emergence of drug-resistant pathogens of animal origin (bacterial, parasitic, and hemoprotozoa), the use of nanoparticles as antibacterial agents represents a paradigm shift in every aspect of veterinary care. Authored by scholars with combined expertise in nanomaterials and veterinary medicine, this book provides valuable information for researchers working on sustainable nanomaterials with antibacterial properties.

Über den Autor Ali Haider

Dr. Ali Haider obtained his master's degree (M.Phil., clinical medicine) from University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences (UVAS), Pakistan, in 2015. He obtained his Ph.D. degree in clinical medicine from the Department of Veterinary Medicine (UVAS), Lahore, in 2021. He served as Dairy Farm Manager at reputed commercial dairies of Punjab (Pakistan). Later on (January 2022-to date), Ali joined the Faculty of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Muhammad Nawaz Shareef University of Agriculture Multan (MNS-UAM), as Assistant Professor of clinical medicine. His research interest involves the veterinary clinical medicine, green synthesis and characterization of inorganic semiconductor nanomaterials, polymeric nanostructures, 2D materials for their catalytic, antiparasitic, and antibacterial evaluation against multiple drug-resistant (MDR) pathogens. Dr. Iram Shahzadi obtained her M.Phil. in pharmaceutical chemistry from Punjab University College of Pharmacy (PUCP), University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan, in 2019 and awarded with University Gold Medal. She completed her Ph.D. from PUCP in 2024. In November 2023, Iram joined the School of Pharmacy, University of Management and Technology (UMT), Lahore, as Assistant Professor of Pharmaceutical Chemistry. Iram was recognized among the top 2% of scientists worldwide in 2024 by Stanford University and Elsevier. Her research interests encompass green synthesis, polymeric nanocomposite synthesis and characterization for water treatment, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory activities. She also focuses on drug loading and release mechanisms for anti-cancer drugs, exploring their cytotoxicity potential against various cell lines and computational studies as in silico modeling and density functional theory (DFT) studies. Sehrish Kiran obtained her B.S. (chemistry) degree from Lahore College for Women University (LCWU), Lahore (Punjab, Pakistan), in 2020. Sehrish completed her master's degree (M.S. in chemistry) from LCWU, Pakistan, in 2022 with research work focused on removal of heavy metals from wastewater using agricultural waste. Her research interest includes synthesis and characterization of polymeric and green nanomaterials with targeted drug delivery and therapeutics, catalytic degradation, and bactericidal evaluations. Kashaf Shakoor obtained her B.S. degree in zoology from Government College University, Faisalabad (GCUF), Punjab, Pakistan, in 2023. She is now enrolled as M.S. Zoology Student in Muhammad Nawaz Shareef University of Agriculture, Multan (MNS-UAM), Pakistan. Her research interest focuses on synthesis and characterization of polymeric nanostructures with their catalytic and bactericidal evaluations to overcome antibacterial resistance in livestock and fish industry.
