Candida albicans is an opportunistic dimorphic yeast. This organism is pathogen associated to superficial and systemic infections. Actually, Candida albicans represents an emergent pathogen especially in a patient with some immunity compromises. Added to this, the use of antifungal in an indiscriminate form has increased the resistance of the existing drugs. In this aspect, the nanotechnology generates the possibility of creating new therapeutic agents. Nanoparticles are structures of 1-100 nm with special physicochemical characteristics that allow it to function as therapeutic agents or as carriers of these. Palladium, silver, and gold metallic nanoparticles and iron, titanium, zinc, and copper oxides have been used as growth inhibitors. These nanoparticles have been proved alone or in form of nanocomposites. The objective of this chapter is to describe the state of the art of the use of nanoparticles as inhibitors of the growth of Candida albicans, as well as the most relevant results regarding the mechanisms involved in this inhibition.

Nanoparticles have actually been in our lives for many years and begun to possess inevitable place in the life cycle with the gradual development of nanotechnology. Recent studies and improvement indicate that the use of nanoparticles will be expected to increase in many areas such as biology, medicine, engineering and optics in the future. In this review, nanoparticles, their applications, damage and damage prevention methods are discussed.

“…The metal and metal oxide nanoparticles, such as silver, copper, Ni, and ZnO can be either extruded with PU or used during in situ formation of PU to achieve antibacterial activity . This suffers disadvantage due to the aggregation of particles, lowered thermal stability and mechanical properties and leaching behavior.…”

We present new side‐chain quaternized polyurethanes as antibacterial adhesives made by polyaddition polymerization followed by quaternization for different time intervals. The degree of quaternization of N‐diol units in the polymer is changed from 13.6 to 99.0 mol % (almost complete) for tuning the antibacterial action (leaching/contact type) and studying effect on adhesive strength. The degree of quaternization of about 26 mol % provided the nonleaching antibacterial effect with adhesive strength more than 60 N cm−2 on aluminum and glass substrates. The increase in the degree of quaternization enhanced polymer polarity shifting nonleaching (contact type) antibacterial behavior to the leaching type but maintaining the high adhesive strengths. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
