Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) and silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) have emerged as potent antibacterial agents with significant antipollution capabilities. Their unique physicochemical properties enable them to combat a broad spectrum of pathogens and degrade environmental pollutants effectively. Antibacterial Properties ZnO-NPs exhibit remarkable antibacterial activity due to their high surface area-to-volume ratio, which enhances their interaction with…
