In recent years, the use of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in biomedical applications has shown an unprecedented boost along with simultaneous expansion rapid, high-yielding, and sustainable AgNP synthesis methods that can deliver particles well-defined characteristics. The present study demonstrates potential metal-tolerant soil fungal isolate Penicillium shearii AJP05 for protein-capped AgNPs. were characterized using standard techniques, namely, UV–visible spectroscopy, transmission...
Infections associated with antimicrobial-resistant bacteria now represent a significant threat to human health using conventional therapy, necessitating the development of alternate and more effective antibacterial compounds. Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) have been proposed as potential antimicrobial agents combat infections. A complete understanding their activity is required before these molecules can be used in therapy. Lysozyme coated Ag NPs were synthesized characterized by TEM-EDS,...
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a Gram-negative rod-shaped bacterium is notorious pathogen causing chronic infections. Its ability to form antibiotic-resistant biofilm has raised the need for development of alternative treatment approaches. An ideal alternate can be silver nanoparticles known their strong yet tunable bactericidal activity. However, use in commercial vivo medicine could not see light day because unwanted toxicity host cells at higher concentrations. Thus, strategies which modulate...
The green, cost-effective and sustainable synthesis of nanomaterials has been a key concern scientists researchers. In this view, MNPs were prepared using sapota plant leaf extract the surface magnetite nanoparticles was engineered with unsaturated fatty acids. first report on effect unsaturation size magnetic properties (MNPs), by co-precipitation method, studied coating surfactants based their from zero to three (lauric acid, oleic linoleic linolenic acid). coated surfactant have in...
The exceptional increase in antibiotic resistance past decades motivated the scientific community to use silver as a potential antibacterial agent. However, due its unknown mechanism and pattern of bacterial species, it has not been revolutionized health sector. This study deciphers mechanistic aspects i.e., ions lysozyme-coated nanoparticles (L-Ag NPs), against E. coli K12 through RNA sequencing analysis. obtained results support reservoir nature for controlled release into bacteria....
The surface of the magnetite nanoparticles has been engineered by proteins available in leaf extract Datura inoxia . Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) study and thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) confirms bonding between metal ions amide carbonyl group preset plant protein confirming formation core-shell structure. coated magnetic Fe 3 O 4 under investigation have an average size about 14 nm (˂20nm). isothermal magnetization curve ferrofluid appears S-like sigmoid shape showing soft...
Abstract Phagosomal lysis is a key aspect of mycobacterial infection host macrophages. Acetylation protein modification mediated enzymatically by N-acetyltransferases (NATs) that impacts bacterial pathogenesis and physiology. To identify NATs required for lytic activity, we leveraged Mycobacterium marinum, nontubercular pathogen an established model M. tuberculosis. marinum hemolysis proxy phagolytic activity. We generated strains with deletions in conserved NAT genes screened hemolytic...
Due to worldwide increasing resistances, there is a considerable need for antibacterial compounds with modes of action not yet realized in commercial antibiotics. One such promising structure the acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) inhibitor moiramide B which shows strong activity against gram-positive bacteria as Bacillus subtilis and weaker activities gram-negative bacteria. However, narrow structure-activity relationship pseudopeptide unit represents formidable challenge any optimization...
