Bioderived nanomaterials for addressing issue of antimicrobial resistance and antibiotic abuse

This thematic issue aims to systematically represent the state-of-the-art of antibiotic abuse / antimicrobial resistance screening / monitoring through biomass-derived green nanotechnology. There will be in-depth look at current and emerging monitoring green technologies and their fundamentals for efficient, sustainable, economic and ecofriendly screening of antibiotic abuse / antimicrobial resistance. Besides, it will target the challenges associated with current antibiotic abuse / antimicrobial resistance monitoring nano-biosensors, their alternate possible solutions and innovative prospects for social, economic and innovative point-of-view. It will showcase the recent research, development and innovations in biosensors to detect antibiotic abuse / antimicrobial resistance at community / individual level with next-generation features such as intelligent, portable, wearable, flexible, point-of-care, lab-on-chip, hospital-on-chip and green biosensors contributing to UN-SDGs and saving human lives endangered due to silent pandemic of antibiotic abuse / antimicrobial resistance. To fill this knowledge gap, original research work dedicated to theme of this thematic issue are invited.
