“…However, rising concerns about their cytotoxicity against mammalian cells oriented the research to more biocompatible materials such as carbon-based materials. With several of them showing interesting antibacterial properties such as graphite [31][32][33][34], graphene [35][36][37][38], and carbon nanotubes [39][40][41][42][43] to cite only a few of the latest references, carbon-based materials are definitely an interesting strategy to explore to keep surfaces bacteria-free or to reduce infection based on Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria (Table 1).…”

antibiotic resistance in bacteria is a current threat causing an increasing number of infections of difficult clinical management. While the overuse and misuse of antibiotics are investigated to reduce them, the need for alternatives to approaches is rising. carbon-based materials shown recent moderate to high antibacterial properties and diamond, thanks to its superior mechanical, tribological, electrical, chemical and biological quality is a choice material to investigate for safe antibacterial films, coatings and particles. here, the antibacterial properties of diamond films, nanodiamonds, Dlc films and a comprehensive list of the composites developed from them are discussed along with a summary of the bacterial strains used and the most efficient composition and/or concentration discovered. in a later stage, the mechanisms of action and the parameters that are believed to influence them are discussed and finally, an overview of the biomedical and food industry applications is given.
