Effect of Graphene Oxide and Silver Nanoparticle Hybrid Composite on Strains, Regarding Antibiotic Resistance and Prevalence of AMP-C Production.

Growing antibiotic resistance among bacteria is a global issue that is becoming harder and more expensive to solve. Traditional treatment options are becoming less effective, causing more fatal outcomes of nosocomial infections. Since the development of new antibiotics has stagnated in the last decade, a novel approach is needed.

Effect of Graphene Oxide and Silver Nanoparticles Hybrid Composite on Strains with Acquired Resistance Genes.

Background: In the last decades, nosocomial infections caused by drug-resistant became a common problem in healthcare facilities. Antibiotics are becoming less effective as new resistant strains appear. Therefore, the development of novel enhanced activity antibacterial agents becomes very significant.
