Zinc Nanomaterials: A Double-Edged Sword in Detection and Prevention against SARS-CoV-2 Spread (A Review)

Abstract

The rise of ongoing Covid SARS-CoV-2 drove pandemic disease has created the perpetual interest for the assessment and improvement of reasonable progressed materials for controlling this and future unexpected viral diseases. One of the fundamental worries about this pandemic situation is the analysis and identification of infected patients. In this regard, the utilization of zinc-based nanomaterials to identify the vital biological markers of the SARS-CoV-2 remains a prevalent bother, whereas the advancement of particular and delicate devices is the essential objective. To obstruct virus proliferation, the expanding interest for self-disinfected covering requires elective materials to satisfy this problem. In this unique situation, zinc nanomaterials have given a fundamental commitment to the administration of Covid-19. Zinc nanomaterials have displayed huge antiviral action against a few infections like flu and Covids. This review delineates the importance of nanotechnology mediation in settling this tough condition.
