Nature Is a Valuable Source for the Biosynthesis of Nanoparticles and Their Effects on the Treatment of Osteomyelitis.

Infection is still one of the biggest threats to global health. Today, treating infections such as osteomyelitis is challenging due to the rise in drug-resistant and biofilm-forming pathogens. Therefore, researchers worldwide are seeking new ways to combat these infections. Nanotechnology, which is of interest in the medical field, has provided a platform for drug delivery and the treatment of osteomyelitis. Various biological, chemical, and physical methods are used for the biosynthesis of nanoparticles. Among these methods, biological methods, or green synthesis, are of great interest due to their non-toxicity, high stability, low cost, and environmental friendliness. This study aimed to investigate nanoparticles biosynthesised from natural sources and use them for the treatment of osteomyelitis.
