Influence of Physicochemical Properties of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles on Their Antibacterial Activity

ACS Omega, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 9(31), P. 33303 - 33334

Published: July 25, 2024

The increasing occurrence of infectious diseases caused by antimicrobial resistance organisms urged the necessity to develop more potent, selective, and safe agents. unique magnetic tunable properties iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) make them a promising candidate for different theragnostic applications, including Though IONPs act as nonspecific agent, their activities are directly or indirectly linked with synthesis methods, synthesizing precursors, size, shapes, concentration, surface modifications. Alteration these parameters could accelerate decelerate production reactive oxygen species (ROS). An increase in ROS role disrupts bacterial cell walls, membranes, alters major biomolecules (e.g., lipids, proteins, nucleic acids), affects metabolic processes Krebs cycle, fatty acid synthesis, ATP glycolysis, mitophagy). In this review, we will investigate antibacterial activity bare surface-modified influence physiochemical on activity. Additionally, report potential mechanism IONPs' action driving

Microplastics affect ecosystem multifunctionality: Increasing evidence from soil enzyme activities

Land Degradation and Development, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 35(15), P. 4379 - 4405

Published: July 22, 2024

Abstract Microplastics (MPs) as emerging contaminants have a global occurrence, including both terrestrial and marine ecosystems. Soil enzymes contribute to maintaining ecosystem multifunctionality, for example, nutrient cycling, organic material decomposition, carbon climate regulation. Our present review highlights the impacts of MPs on soil enzyme activities, influencing factors, underlying mechanisms. Increasing findings confirm that can change activities range involved in biogeochemical cycling C N. However, current results are highly controversial. The effects vary from significant nonsignificant dependent polymer type, biodegradability, dosage, size, shape, aging degree MPs, exposure conditions. Compared traditional biodegradable generally show more pronounced effects. via different pathways. On one hand, directly structure, leading alterations activity. other create unique habitats, provide sources specific functional microbes producing enzymes, release plastic additives pollutants disturbing production these enzymes. Furthermore, alter physicochemical biological properties, availability substrates, plants fauna, regulating their functions. In conclusion, regulate pose profound impact multifunctionality.
