Zinc oxide nanocrystals as nano-antibiotic and osteoinductive agents

The use of nanomaterials in the field of bone tissue engineering implants is continuously dealing with the development of innovative solutions to common problems, as infection by colonization with common microbial agents, antibiotic bacterial resistance, and the formation of new bone tissue. Among t...

Among them, ZnO nanostructures are promising candidates thanks to their intrinsic antimicrobial activity and high biocompatibility.
