2D MXenes for combatting COVID-19 Pandemic: A perspective on latest developments and innovations

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected the world, causing enormous loss of lives. A greater impact on the economy was also observed worldwide. During the pandemic, the antimicrobial aprons, face masks, sterilizers, sensor processed touch-free sanitizers, and highly effective diagnostic devices having greater sensitivity and selectivity helped to foster the healthcare facilities. Furthermore, the research and development sectors are tackling this emergency with the rapid invention of vaccines and medicines. In this regard, two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials are greatly explored to combat the extreme severity of the pandemic. Among the nanomaterials, the 2D MXene is a prospective element due to its unique properties like greater surface functionalities, enhanced conductivity, superior hydrophilicity, and excellent photocatalytic and/or photothermal properties. These unique properties of MXene can be utilized to fabricate face masks, PPE kits, face shields, and biomedical instruments like efficient biosensors having greater antiviral activities. MXenes can also cure comorbidities in COVID-19 patients and have high drug loading as well as controlled drug release capacity. Moreover, the remarkable biocompatibility of MXene adds a feather in its cap for diverse biomedical applications. This review briefly explains the different synthesis processes of 2D MXenes, their biocompatibility, cytotoxicity and antiviral features. In addition, this review also discusses the viral cycle of SARS-CoV-2 and its inactivation mechanism using MXene. Finally, various applications of MXene for combatting the COVID-19 pandemic and their future perspectives are discussed.
