+Cutting-edge advancements in biomedical materials are embodied by antibacterial and antiviral nanofibrous membranes. 
+  These sophisticated membranes, crafted through techniques such as electrospinning at the nanoscale, boast a high 
+  specific surface area, fostering enhanced interactions with pathogens. Through the integration of antibacterial and 
+  antiviral agents, such as nanoparticles or organic compounds, these membranes acquire potent antimicrobial properties. 
+  The nanofibrous structure not only facilitates a sustained release of these agents but also fosters physical interactions 
+  with microorganisms, disrupting their cell membranes and impeding proliferation. Moreover, the design of nanofibrous 
+  architecture allows for efficient filtration, customizable to specific pore sizes, enabling the selective exclusion of 
+  bacteria and viruses. Consequently, these nanofibrous membranes exhibit promising applications in various fields, 
+  including wound dressings, air filtration systems, water purification, and protective clothing. Their dual-action 
+  against bacteria and viruses is crucial in preventing infections and safeguarding public health. The primary challenge 
+  lies in identifying and eradicating infections effectively. Nanofibrous sensors utilize responsive materials to translate 
+  physical measurements into understandable information for humans, aiding in the detection of infectious microorganisms. 
+  Stimuli-responsive nanofibers can be remotely controlled to release antimicrobial additives. Smart nanofibers exhibit 
+  adaptability to complex environments. For instance, excess pressure on membranes can induce deformation and cracks, 
+  which self-healing materials can address by releasing encapsulated materials to fill gaps and eliminate infections.
