This review, explores the vast array of biological resources such as plants, microbes, and other biological products being used in synthesis of CeO2 NPs. It also discusses their biosynthetic mechanism, current understandings, and trends in the green synthesis of CeO2 NPs. Novel therapies based on green synthesized CeO2 NPs are illustrated, in particular their antimicrobial potential along with attempts of their mechanistic elucidation. Overall, the main objective of this review is to provide a rational insight of the major accomplishments of CeO2 NPs as novel therapeutics agents for a wide range of microbial pathogens and combating other diseases.Keywords: nanotechnology, green synthesis, cerium oxide, nanoparticles, antimicrobial, infections, biomedical |
