Abstract

Metal-based antiseptics like silver, zinc oxide, copper and titanium dioxide have proven their efficacy long time before nanorevolution. The rapid development of nanotechnology during the past ten years has allowed even further increases in their antimicrobial potency. Indeed, the development and use of nano-Ag or nano-Cu/CuO coated surfaces and application of ZnO and TiO2 nanoparticles in personal care products is rapidly increasing. The main reason for the increased efficacy of nano-size metal-based antiseptics compared to their micro-sized counterparts is their increased relative surface area that translates into higher reactivity, e.g., improved dissolution of inhibitory concentrations of metal ions. In this chapter, we discuss the recent findings on the antimicrobial mechanisms of metal-based nanomaterials with special emphasis on metal dissolution. We also discuss the (bio)analytical methods that have been developed and/or applied to discriminate between the toxic effects mediated by metal dissolution and nanomaterials per se. The discrimination between these two mechanisms of toxicity is important for basic mechanistic research as well as for designing new nano-antimicrobials.
