Biofilm formation hinders the activity of antimicrobial drugs at the site of infections and any agent that can act on both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria by inhibiting the bacterial growth and rupturing the biofilm is needed to manage infection. In the present study, we have synthesized zirconia nanoparticles (ZrO
