The development of carbon-based nanomaterials has extensively facilitated new discoveries in various fields. Carbon nanotube-based nanocomposites (CNT-based nanocomposites) have lately recognized as promising biomaterials for a wide range of biomedical applications due to their unique electronic, mechanical, and biological properties. Nanocomposite materials such as silver nanoparticles, polymers, biomolecules, enzymes, and peptides have been reported in many studies, possess a broad range of antibacterial activity when incorporated with carbon nanotubes (CNTs). It is crucial to understand the mechanism which governs the antimicrobial activity of these CNT-based nanocomposite materials, including the decoupling individual and synergistic effects on the cells. In this review, the interaction behavior between microorganisms and different types of CNT-based nanocomposites is summarized to understand the respective antimicrobial performance in different conditions. Besides, the current development stage of CNT-based nanocomposite materials, the technical challenges faced, and the exceptional prospect of implementing potential antimicrobial CNT-based nanocomposite materials are also discussed.

“…To overcome these drawbacks and utilize their remarkable abilities, CNTs were used as support material for anchoring MO NPs (Figure 1). Besides, their extensively studied role in photocatalytic applications, [28][29][30] CNTs have been demonstrated to have a broad spectrum of powerful antibacterial activities against pathogens. [31] The mechanism behind CNT toxicity is influenced by several factors like diameter, structure, length, surface functional groups, and coatings of CNTs.…”

Arising global health problems have drawn significant interest in the researcher's community to fabricate multifunctional nanocomposites that could directly or indirectly treat polluted water. Herein, a simple but cost‐effective method is proposed for the fabrication of flower‐shaped RuO2 NPs (nanoparticles) on SWCNTs (single‐walled carbon nanotubes). The synthesized composite acts as a one‐stop solution for eliminating harmful dyes and pathogens from potable water. The structural, morphological, and chemical compositions of RuO2/SWCNT were carefully investigated and the observations revealed that crystalline RuO2 NPs possessing quantum dot range sizes were homogeneously decorated on the inner as well as exterior cavities of activated SWCNTs. The nanocomposite proved as an efficient photocatalyst against MB (methylene blue) dye and colourless phenol. The photocatalytic degradation efficiencies of RuO2, SWCNT, and RuO2/SWCNT is 57%, 21%, and 92.6% respectively against MB dye. Colourless phenol degradation and scavenging studies were performed to rule out the photosensitization effect and examine the role of active species during photodegradation respectively. Moreover, when the residual remains of the composite after degradation experiments were used as an antibacterial agent, it proved most lethal against E. coli and L. monocytogenes with 13.7±0.45 and 12.5±0.15 mm diameter of ZOI respectively at rather low doses (0.07 mg/mL). Finally, the synthesized composite could reduce the industrial cost of application and also influence the engineering and logical fabrication of nanocomposites for their reusability and multifunctional proficiencies.
