Antibacterial Effect of Carbon Nanomaterials: Nanotubes, Carbon Nanofibers, Nanodiamonds, and Onion-like Carbon.

ABSTRACT: The increasing resistance of bacteria and fungi to antibiotics is one of the health threats facing humanity. Of great importance is the development of new antibacterial agents or alternative approaches to reduce bacterial resistance to available antibacterial drugs. Due to the complexity of their properties, carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) may be of interest for a number of biomedical applications. One of the problems in studying the action of CNMs on microorganisms is the lack of universally standardized methods and criteria for assessing antibacterial and antifungal activity. In this work, using a unified methodology, a comparative study of the antimicrobial properties of the CNM systemic kit against common opportunistic microorganisms, namely Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus au
