In this paper, the antimicrobial properties, mechanism and application of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are reviewed. The antimicrobial activity and influencing factors of single-walled carbon nanotubes and multi- walled carbon nanotubes are described. Single-walled carbon nanotubes exhibit high antibacterial performance. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes need to be modified to achieve good antibacterial effect. The action mechanism of carbon nanotubes on bacteria is mainly cell membrane damage, oxidative stress response and cell adhesion and other modes of action. Finally, the application of carbon nanotubes in water purification, medical materials and food antimicrobial materials is also briefly introduced. Due to the toxicity and cost concerns, applications of CNTs face enormous challenges. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
