Biological and inhibitory activity of carbon nanotubes against the biofilm produced by Enterobacteriaceae

Abstract

Multiple drug resistance prompted researchers to investigate novel components that might effectively restrict the development of microorganisms, and carbon nanotubes were employed to suppress the biofilm in this study. Bacteria in a biofilm develop differently than bacteria in a planktonic environment. The antimicrobial test was performed using Perez and others' approach, the carbon nanotube test (0.05 percent, 0.02 percent, 0.01 percent ). The concentration was tested. In addition, Enterobacteriaceae reveals that the average inhibitory zone is 54 mm. In addition, pathogenic isolates could not form biofilms when exposed to carbon nanotubes. Klebsiella pneumonia had a maximum value of 0.426 nm and then dropped to 0.171 nm. The inhibitory impact of carbon- nanotube and the suppression of biofilm formation by pathogenic bacteria were discovered in this study
