Examining nanotechnology-based methods such as nanoencapsulation, drug delivery, and conjugation, the text highlights their successful application in treating microbial infections with reduced resistance and off-target toxicity. The introductory section outlines AMR and explores diverse mechanisms of microbial resistance, emphasizing the potential of nanotechnology to surmount these challenges. Subsequent chapters investigate the role of specific nanomaterials?metal nanoparticles, metal oxide nanoparticles, functionalized quantum dots, magnetic nanoparticles, bimetallic nanoparticles, nanocomposites, carbon nanomaterials, and polymer-based nanomaterials?in overcoming antimicrobial resistance. Several chapters focus on the efficacy of nanoemulsions as an antimicrobial delivery method, underscoring their inherent antimicrobial properties, capacity to enhance drug solubility, stability, bioavailability, and targeting potential at the organ and cellular levels. The concluding section provides a detailed review of liposomes, dendrimers-based nanoparticles, and micelles as drug delivery vehicles in the context of combating pathogens resistant to antimicrobials. 606 $aMedical microbiology 606 $aNanobiotechnology 606 $aParasitology 606 $aMedical Microbiology 606 $aNanobiotechnology 606 $aParasitology 615 0$aMedical microbiology. 615 0$aNanobiotechnology. 615 0$aParasitology. 615 14$aMedical Microbiology. 615 24$aNanobiotechnology. 615 24$aParasitology. 676 $a6,169,041 700 $aWani$b Mohmmad Younus$01214292 701 $aWani$b Irshad Ahmad$01739447 701 $aRai$b Akhilesh$01739448 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910861096903321 996 $aNanotechnology Based Strategies for Combating Antimicrobial Resistance$94163462 997 $aUNINA
