The fields of chemical engineering, agri-food, biochemistry, pharmaceuticals, diagnostics, and medical device development all employ fungal products, with fungal nanomaterials currently used in applications ranging from drug development to the food industry and agricultural biotechnology. Fungal agents are an environmentally friendly, clean, non?toxic agent for the synthesis of metal nanoparticles and employ both intracellular and extracellular methods. The simplicity of scaling up and downstream processing and the presence of fungal mycelia which afford an increased surface area provide key advantages. In addition, the large spectrum of synthesized nanoparticle morphologies and the substantially faster biosynthesis rate in cell-free filtrate (due to the higher amount of proteins secreted in fungi) make this a particularly enticing route. Understanding the diversity of fungi in assorted ecosystems, as well as their interactions with other microorganisms, animals, and plants, underpins real and innovative technological developments and the applications of metal nanoparticles in many disciplines including agriculture, catalysis, and biomedical biosensors. Importantly, biogenic fungal nanoparticles show significant synergistic characteristics when combined with antibiotics and fungicides to offer substantially greater resistance to microbial growth and applications in nanomedicine ranging from topical ointments and bandages for wound healing to coated stents. 410 0$aFungal Biology,$x2198-7777 606 $aMycology 606 $aPlant breeding 606 $aMicrobiology 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aMicrobial ecology 606 $aMycology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L27000 606 $aPlant Breeding/Biotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24060 606 $aMicrobiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L23004 606 $aAgriculture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006 606 $aMicrobial Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19082 615 0$aMycology. 615 0$aPlant breeding. 615 0$aMicrobiology. 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aMicrobial ecology. 615 14$aMycology. 615 24$aPlant Breeding/Biotechnology. 615 24$aMicrobiology. 615 24$aAgriculture. 615 24$aMicrobial Ecology. 676 $a579.135 702 $aPrasad$b Ram$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253960003321 996 $aFungal Nanotechnology$92133993 997 $aUNINA
