The recognized antimicrobial activity of silver nanoparticles is a well-studied property, especially when designing and developing biomaterials with medical applications. As biological closely related to the physicochemical characteristics material, aspects such as particle morphology dimension should be considered. Microfluidic systems in continuous flow represent promising method control size, shape, size distribution synthesized nanoparticles. Moreover, using microfluidics widens synthesis options by creating controlling parameters that are otherwise difficult maintain conventional batch procedures. This study used microfluidic platform cross-shape design an innovative for synthesizing varied precursor concentration purging speed experimental parameters. compositional microstructural characterization obtained samples was carried out X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS). Four formulations alginate-based hydrogels addition hyaluronic acid were highlight efficiency composite wound treatment. porous structure, swelling capacity, properties evaluated through analysis (FT-IR SEM) contact prokaryotic eukaryotic cells. results investigations revealed desirable performant dressings (i.e., biocompatibility, appropriate rate, degradation ability inhibit biofilm formation, cell growth stimulation capacity), materials thus recommended treating chronic infected wounds.

Abstract Some of the significant globally prevalent vector-borne illnesses are caused by Culex pipiens . Synthetic pesticides have been widely utilized to eradicate C. , which has led a number health risks for people, insect resistance, and environmental contamination. Alternative strategies therefore vitally needed. In current investigation, Trichoderma viride fungal culture filtrate was used create selenium silver nanoparticles (SeNPs AgNPs, respectively) test them on larvae in their fourth instar stage. The death rate increased significantly when SeNP AgNP concentrations increased, according results. SeNPs AgNPs affected developmental detoxification enzymes at 24 h after being treated with sublethal concentration tested NPs. As result insecticidal effect larvae, considered effective promising larvicidal agents.

Introduction: This study explores the therapeutic potential of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) synthesized using a Helianthemum lippii extract in mitigating cadmium-induced hepatotoxicity Wistar rats. Given increasing environmental and health concerns associated with cadmium exposure, novel eco-friendly strategies are essential. Methods: Ag NPs were characterized X-ray diffraction, UV-Vis spectrometry, energy-dispersive spectroscopy scanning electron microscopy, confirming their formation cubic crystal structure particle sizes ranging from 4.81 to 12.84 nm. A sub-acute toxicity (2 mg/kg 10 mg/kg) was conducted, showing no significant difference compared untreated control rats ( n = 3 animals/group). Subsequently, adult 5/group) divided into group three experimental groups: alone, exposure 50 CdCl 2 drinking water for 35 days, followed by 0.1 mg/kg/day intraperitoneally 15 days. Results: In -exposed group, there decrease body weight increases alanine aspartate transaminase levels p < 0.05 vs. control), indicating hepatotoxicity. Additionally, antioxidant defenses decreased, malondialdehyde elevated. Liver histology revealed portal fibrosis, inflammation, necrosis, sinusoid hepatic vein dilation, cytoplasmic vacuolations. Treatment post-CdCl mitigated several adverse effects on liver function architecture improved weight. Discussion: demonstrates efficacy via green method reducing damage. These findings support applications highlight importance sustainable nanoparticle synthesis methods. By addressing both efficacy, this research aligns growing emphasis environmentally conscious practices scientific healthcare.

Human pathogenic fungi and bacteria pose a huge threat to human life, accounting for high rates of mortality every year. Unfortunately, the past few years have seen an upsurge in multidrug resistance pathogens. Consequently, finding effective alternative antimicrobial agent is utmost importance. Hence, this study aimed phytofabricate silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using aqueous extracts solid endosperm Cocos nucifera L, also known as coconut meat (Cm). Green synthesis facile, cost-effective eco-friendly methods which has several benefits over other physical chemical methods. The synthesized were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS). Cm-AgNPs showed peak at 435 nm crystalline quasi-spherical, with average size 15 nm. FTIR spectrum displayed functional groups phenols, alkaloids, sugars, amines, carbonyl compounds, are vital reduction capping NPs. antibacterial anticandidal efficacy was assessed agar-well diffusion method expressed zone inhibition (ZOI). Amongst all test isolates, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Candida auris, methicillin-resistant epidermidis more susceptible NPs ZOI 26.33 ± 0.57 mm, 19.33 18 0.76 mm. MIC MFC values spp. higher than bacterial isolates. Scanning microscopic studies isolates their concentrations drastically altered cell morphology, indicating that could successfully cross barrier damage integrity, causing death. This reports against strains, had not been reported earlier studies. Furthermore, AgNPs exhibited significant antioxidant activity. Thus, findings strongly imply can serve promising candidates therapeutic applications, especially multidrug-resistant bacteria. However, further investigation needed understand mode action biosafety.
