Microbial resistance to conventional biocides is closely linked the more complex problem of antibiotic resistance. Therefore, development novel and highly antimicrobial effective disinfectants encouraged. Due their broad spectrum action low toxicity, Argirium Silver Ultra Nano Clusters (Argirium SUNc®), a new generation silver nanoparticles, could be one them. In this regard, aim present work was evaluate biocidal properties in two different formulations against hygiene indicator microorganisms potentially three Italian food industries compare them with chemical disinfectant most commonly used by operators for routine cleaning. series microbiological swabs on foodstuff contact surfaces were performed before after application solutions at each company. The data showed that nanomaterial all parameters analyzed, being able inhibit or reduce growth tested microorganisms. Furthermore, cases, sanitizing had greater inhibitory power than disinfectant. For reason, SUNc® has great potential near future as new-generation disinfectant, an alternative promote spread

The control of bacterial plant diseases is very challenging and often relies on the application copper compounds, although frequent emergence spread resistant strains compromise their efficacy. Additionally, copper-based compounds raise environmental human health concerns, leading to inclusion in European Commission’s list candidates for substitution. As a promising sustainable alternative, we investigated efficacy biogenic zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) protecting tomato plants against Pseudomonas syringae pv. (Pst), causal agent speck disease. ZnO-NPs exhibited significant vitro antibacterial activity (EC95 = 17.0 ± 1.1 ppm) pathogen. Furthermore, when applied foliage at 100 ppm before or following Pst inoculation, they induced reductions symptom severity growth planta, which were comparable those shown by treated with acibenzolar-S-methyl, defense inducer. Gene expression assessed qPCR revealed involvement systemic acquired resistance (SAR) pathway suggesting that observed protection could be due priming effect. Finally, infected showed oxidative stress, higher H2O2 malondialdehyde (MDA) contents. reverted this effect, containing content above molecules, stimulated production metabolites involved dealing perturbations (carotenoids phenols), while unaffecting flavonoids anthocyanins.

Foodborne diseases are one of the main issues for human health, and antibacterial packaging plays a major role in food security assurance. Silver ultra nanoparticles (Argirium SUNc) antimicrobial agents that have wide spectrum action, including against pathogenic bacteria spoilage fungi. The aim present study was to evaluate activity Argirium SUNc on most commonly found food: Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella typhimurium. In this regard, an vitro carried out by assessing effectiveness different concentrations each tested microbial strain at time intervals. data showed directly related concentration varied depending species. Moreover, greater Gram-negative than Gram-positive observed. These preliminary results provided important information silver is aspect appears particularly promising obtaining viable alternative traditional antimicrobials be used pathogens chain, harmful both health quality aspects.

Abstract Bacterial plant diseases are difficult to control as the durability of deployed measures is thwarted by continuous and rapid changing bacterial populations. Although application copper compounds plants most widespread inexpensive measure, it often partially efficacious for frequent appearance copper-resistant strains raising concerns harmful effects on environment human health. Consequently, European Community included in list substances candidates substitution. Nanotechnologies nanoparticles seem respond need find new very effective durable measures. We believe that Argirium - SUNCs ®, silver ultra nanoclusters with an average size 1.79 nm characterized rare oxidative states (Ag 2+/3+ ), represent a valid candidate nano-bactericide diseases. Respect many described literature, have strengths due reproducibility synthesis method, purity stability preparation, strong (less than 1 ppm) antimicrobial, anti-biofilm activities. In this mini-review, we provide information nanomaterial possible agriculture.
