According to al-Sadi, these nanoparticles are environmentally friendly and chemical-free, with no adverse effects or side effects.
The team worked to demonstrate the ability of nanoparticles to control the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections in the Gaza Strip and to produce sterile medical gauze with green nanoparticles to ensure that no microbial infection occurs in wounds and burns.
"The first nanotechnology was used as an antibiotic as the first field in the laboratories of the Islamic University in Gaza," al-Sadi said.
He added that the importance of their project is to produce a cheap and 100 percent natural medicine with no chemics.
"There are many deaths every year because of antibiotics and the spread of bacterial infections in hospitals around the world," team member Mahmoud al-Hindi, also a researcher at the Faculty of Science and Cancer Research Center, told Xinhua.
Al-Hindi explained that bacterias have become resistant to chemical antibiotics because of the excessive use, adding that "this requires the search for alternative ways to eliminate bacteria, including the use of green nanoparticles."
He added that any research or idea in the field of health must pass in several stages.
The first is to obtain the approval of scientific research ethics from Gaza Ministry of Health.
According to al-Hindi, the second stage is the use of experimental animals.
