In this report, a bibliographic research has been done in the field of antimicrobials.In this report, a bibliographic research has been done in the field of antimicrobials. Not all antimicrobials have been included, but those that are being subject of matter in the group GBMI in Terrassa, and others of interest. It includes chitosan and other biopolymers. The effect of nanoparticles is of great interest, and in this sense, the effect of Ag nanoparticles and antibiotic nanoparticles (nanobiotics) has been revised. The report focuses on new publications and the antimicrobial effect of peptides has been considered. In particular, the influence of antimicrobials on membranes has deserved much attention and its study using the Langmuir technique, which is of great utility on biomimetic studies. The building up of antimicrobials systems with new techniques (bottom-up approach), as the Layer-by-Layer technique, can also be found in between the bibliography. It has also been considered the antibiofilm effect, and the new ideas on quorem sensing and quorum quenching.Preprin
