Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a common health issue caused by bacterial and fungal pathogens. Current treatments for UTIs have limitations, such as the development of antibiotic resistance, making it important to find new, more effective solutions. Nanoparticles, specifically metallic nanoparticles, have shown promise as a potential solution for UTI pathogen control. Metallic nanoparticles possess unique physical, chemical, and biological properties that make them effective against UTI pathogens. For example, silver nanoparticles have been extensively studied for their strong antibacterial activity against UTI-causing bacteria. In addition, metallic nanoparticles can be functionalized with targeting moieties to improve their specificity and efficacy in combating UTI pathogens. This review highlights the current state of knowledge on the use of metallic nanoparticles for UTI pathogen control. The antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles against UTI-causing bacteria is discussed, as well as the potential of other metallic nanoparticles, such as gold and copper, in UTI pathogen control.
