Abstract

Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) have different structural properties and 2 effective biological activities. One of the major proven applications of CuNPs is 3 antimicrobial activity. The advantage of CuNPs is the control over particle size and 4 compositions to provide additional applications. The synthesis of CuNPs through 5 green synthesis, chemical, physical and biological methods is possible. The toxicity 6 and stability of CuNPs are important for its use as antimicrobial agent. This work 7 reviews the behavior of CuNPs and copper-based NPs as antimicrobial agents in 8 different media under various conditions
