چکیده مقاله
The use of copper in medicine is not a new issue and goes back to ancient Egypt between 2600 and 2200 BC Old documents state that copper was used in medicine to sterilize chest wounds and drinking water The Greeks, Romans and Aztecs also used copper compounds to treat problems such as burns, intestinal worms, ear infections and generally to maintain health Recent scientific studies clearly show that copper nanoparticles and copper containing alloys quickly destroy bacteria, yeasts and viruses on their surface This would require the reintroduction of copper nanoparticles, brass, bronze and other copper rich alloys into the hospital to create antimicrobial surfaces The so called contact killing occurs very quickly and completely on metal surfaces containing copper nanoparticles Therefore, copper nanoparticles offer a promising horizon for different applications in nanobiotechnology and medicine In this review article, the validity of the studies up to date has been examined, and through searching in databases such as Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed and other reliable databases, the latest information about copper nanoparticles and applications have been obtained by searching for specialized keywords
