Abstract
In recent years, researchers have increasingly directed their focus toward the biomedical field, driven by the goal of engineering polymer systems that possess a unique combination of both electrical conductivity and biodegradability. This convergence of properties holds significant promise, as it addresses a fundamental requirement for biomedical applications: compatibility with biological environments. These polymer systems are viewed as auspicious biomaterials, precisely because they meet this critical criterion. Beyond their biodegradability, these materials offer a range of advantageous characteristics. Their exceptional processability enables facile fabrication into various forms, and their chemical stability ensures reliability in diverse physiological conditions. Moreover, their low production costs make them economically viable options for large-scale applications. Notably, their intrinsic electrical conductivity further distinguishes them, opening up possibilities for applications that demand such functionality.

Saudi Pharm J 2024; 32:101918. [PMID: 38178849 PMCID: PMC10764259 DOI: 10.1016/j.jsps.2023.101918] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Chitosan is known to exert antimicrobial activity without the need for any chemical modification; however, new derivatives of chitosan can be created to target multi-drug resistant bacteria. In this study, chitosan (CS) was cross-linked with sodium tripolyphosphate to form nanoparticles, which were then coated with polyacrylic acid (PAA). The SEM images revealed that the CS-PAA nanoparticles had spherical shapes with smooth surfaces and the size of the dried nanoparticles was approximately 222 nm. Biofilm formation was significantly inhibited by 0.5 mg/mL of CS-PAA. In-situ optical microscopy showed that CS-PAA nanoparticles inhibited the bacterial biofilm formation in Campylobacter jejuni, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli after a single treatment with 40 μg. Additionally, 20 µg of CS-PAA nanoparticles demonstrated antibacterial activity against the growth of C. jejuni, P. aeruginosa, and E. coli with notable inhibitory zones of 9, 12, and 13 mm, respectively (P < 0.01). The development of a novel and ecofriendly method for the preparation of chitosan nanoparticles through an interaction of chitosan with PAA shows promise tool to combat bacterial infections and validates effective antibacterial and antibiofilm properties against antibiotic resistant pathogens.

Abstract
Sepsis is a critical disease caused by the abrupt increase of bacteria in human blood, which subsequently causes a cytokine storm. Early identification of bacteria is critical to treating a patient with proper antibiotics to avoid sepsis. However, conventional culture-based identification takes a long time. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is not so successful because of the complexity and similarity in the genome sequence of some bacterial species, making it difficult to design primers and thus less suitable for rapid bacterial identification. To address these issues, several new technologies have been developed. Recent advances in nanotechnology have shown great potential for fast and accurate bacterial identification. The most promising strategy in nanotechnology involves the use of nanoparticles, which has led to the advancement of highly specific and sensitive biosensors capable of detecting and identifying bacteria even at low concentrations in very little time. The primary drawback of conventional antibiotics is the potential for antimicrobial resistance, which can lead to the development of superbacteria, making them difficult to treat. The incorporation of diverse nanomaterials and designs of nanomaterials has been utilized to kill bacteria efficiently. Nanomaterials with distinct physicochemical properties, such as optical and magnetic properties, including plasmonic and magnetic nanoparticles, have been extensively studied for their potential to efficiently kill bacteria. In this review, we are emphasizing the recent advances in nano-biotechnologies for bacterial identification and anti-bacterial properties. The basic principles of new technologies, as well as their future challenges, have been discussed.

Abstract
In this work, we focused on synthesizing and assessing novel chitosan-based antibacterial polymers and their nanoparticles by incorporating benzothiazole substituents. The growing resistance to antibiotics has necessitated the search for alternative antimicrobial compounds. This study aimed to synthesize and evaluate chitosan-based polymers and nanoparticles with benzothiazole substituents for their antibacterial properties and toxicity. The benzothiazole derivatives of chitosan and their nanoparticles were synthesized through electrochemical coupling. The in vivo antibacterial efficacy was tested on white rats with induced peritonitis using a microbial suspension containing S. aureus and E. coli. Additionally, in vitro and in vivo toxicity assessments were conducted. The chitosan-based antibacterial systems showed significant in vivo antibacterial activity, surpassing that of unmodified chitosan and commercial antibiotics. Moreover, the toxicity studies revealed low toxicity levels of the synthesized derivatives, which did not differ significantly from native chitosan. The synthesized chitosan-based polymers and nanoparticles demonstrated potent antibacterial activity and low toxicity, highlighting their potential as effective alternatives to traditional antibiotics. Further investigations in pharmacology and preclinical trials are recommended to explore their application in clinical settings.

Abstract
In this study, we elaborated new chitosan-based films reinforced by iron(III)-containing chitosan nanoparticles Fe(III)-CS-NPs at different concentrations. We found that the optimum concentration of Fe(III)-CS-NPs for the improvement of antibacterial and mechanical properties of the films was 10% (σb = ca. 8.8 N/mm2, εb = ca. 41%, inhibition zone for S. aureus = ca. 16.8 mm and for E. coli = ca. 11.2 mm). Also, using the click-chemistry approach (thiol-ene reaction), we have synthesized a novel water-soluble cationic derivative of chitin. The addition of this derivative of chitin to the chitosan polymer matrix of the elaborated film significantly improved its mechanical (σb = ca. 11.6 N/mm2, εb = ca. 75%) and antimicrobial (inhibition zone for S. aureus = ca. 19.6 mm and for E. coli = ca. 14.2 mm) properties. The key mechanism of the antibacterial action of the obtained films is the disruption of the membranes of bacterial cells. The elaborated antibacterial films are of interest for potential biomedical and food applications.

Abstract
Ciprofloxacin is one of the most effective antibiotics, but it is characterized by a range of side effects. Elaboration of drug-releasing systems which allow to diminish toxicity of ciprofloxacin is a challenging task in medicinal chemistry. The current study is focused on development of new ciprofloxacin releasing systems (CRS). We found that ultrasound efficiently promotes N,N'-dicyclohexyl carbodiimide-mediated coupling between COOH and NH2 functionalities in water. This was used for conjugation of ciprofloxacin to chitosan. The obtained ciprofloxacin/chitosan conjugates are capable of forming their self-assembled nanoparticles (SANPs) in aqueous medium. The SANPs can be additionally loaded by ciprofloxacin to form new CRS. The CRS demonstrated high loading and encapsulation efficiency and they are characterized by extended release profile (20 h). The elaborated CRS were tested in vivo in rats. The in vivo antibacterial effect of the CRS exceeded that of the starting ciprofloxacin. Moreover, the in vivo acute and subacute toxicity of the nanoparticles was almost identical to that of the chitosan, which is considered as the non-toxic biopolymer.

Abstract
Ultrasonic approach to the synthesis of the first selenium-containing derivatives of chitin and chitosan has been developed. The synthetic procedure is simple, provides high yields, does not require harsh conditions, and uses water as the reaction medium. The elaborated chitin and chitosan derivatives and their based nanoparticles are non-toxic and possess high antibacterial and antifungal activity. Their antimicrobial activity exceeds the effect of the classic antibiotics (Ampicillin and Gentamicin) and the antifungal drug Amphotericin B. The obtained selenium-containing cationic chitin and chitosan derivatives exhibit a high transfection activity and are promising gene delivery vectors. Nanoparticles of the synthesized polymers are highly efficient catalysts for the oxidation of 1-phenylethyl alcohol to acetophenone by bromine at room temperature.

Abstract
Infectious diseases are among the major health issues of the 21st century. The substantial use of antibiotics over the years has contributed to the dissemination of multidrug resistant bacteria. According to a recent report by the World Health Organization, antibacterial (ATB) drug resistance has been one of the biggest challenges, as well as the development of effective long-term ATBs. Since pathogens quickly adapt and evolve through several strategies, regular ATBs usually may result in temporary or noneffective treatments. Therefore, the demand for new therapies methods, such as nano-drug delivery systems (NDDS), has aroused huge interest due to its potentialities to improve the drug bioavailability and targeting efficiency, including liposomes, nanoemulsions, solid lipid nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles, metal nanoparticles, and others. Given the relevance of this subject, this review aims to summarize the progress of recent research in antibacterial therapeutic drugs supported by nanobiotechnological tools.

Abstract
Abstract
The interaction of chitosan with 3-(chloromethyl)-[1,2,4]selendiazole[4,5-a]pyridin-4 bromide results in water-soluble, selenium-containing, cationic chitosan derivatives. Derivatives of chitosan with degrees of substitution of 0.15, 0.45, and 0.65 were obtained. These derivatives are characterized by a pronounced in vitro antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, and the antibacterial activity of the derivatives increases with an increase in their degree of substitution. The antibacterial activity of the highly substituted derivative is comparable to that of the conventional antibiotics ampicillin and gentamicin.

Abstract
Chitosan is a rather attractive material, especially because of its bio-origins as well as generation from exoskeletal waste. As the mantle has been effectively transferred from chitin to chitosan, so has it been extrapolated to in-house synthesized novel chitosan derivatives. This review comprehensively lists the available novel chitosan derivatives (ChDs) and summarizes their biological applications. The fact that chitosan derivatives do comprise multifaceted biological applications is attested by the voluminous reports on their varied contributions. However, this review points out to the fact that there has been selective focus on bio functions such as antifungal, antioxidant, antibacterial, whereas other biomedical applications and antiviral applications remain relatively less explored. With their current functionality record, there is definitely no doubt that the plethora of synthesized ChDs will have a profound impact on the unexplored biological aspects. This review points out this lacuna as room for future exploration.

Abstract
Background There has been a great interest in developing strategies for enhancing antigen delivery to the mucosal immune system as well as identifying mucosal active immunostimulating agents. To elevate the potential of O-2ʹ-Hydroxypropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride chitosan (O-2ʹ-HACC) as an adjuvant and mucosal immune delivery carrier for DNA vaccine, we prepared the O-2ʹ-HACC loaded with Newcastle disease virus (NDV) F gene plasmid DNA and C3d6 molecular adjuvant (O-2ʹ-HACC/pFDNA microparticles). Results The O-2ʹ-HACC/pFDNA exhibited a regular spherical morphology with a particle size of 202.3 ± 0.52 nm, a zeta potential of 50.8 ± 8.21 mV, encapsulation efficiency of 90.74 ± 1.10%, and a loading capacity of 49.84 ± 1.20%. The plasmid DNA could be sustainably released from the O-2ʹ-HACC/pFDNA after an initial burst release. Intranasal vaccination of chickens immunized with O-2ʹ-HACC/pFDNA not only induced higher anti-NDV IgG and sIgA antibody titers but also significantly promoted lymphocyte proliferation and produced higher levels of IL-2, IL-4, IFN-γ, CD4+, and CD8 + T lymphocytes compared with the NDV commercial live attenuated vaccine. Intranasal delivery of the O-2ʹ-HACC/pFDNA enhanced humoral, cellular, and mucosal immune responses and protected chickens from the infection of highly virulent NDV compared with the intramuscular delivery. Conclusions Collectively, our findings indicated that the O-2ʹ-HACC could be used as a vaccine adjuvant and delivery system for mucosal immunity and have an immense application promise.

Abstract
At its basic conceptualization, photoclick chemistry embodies a collection of click reactions that are performed via the application of light. The emergence of this concept has had diverse impact over a broad range of chemical and biological research due to the spatiotemporal control, high selectivity, and excellent product yields afforded by the combination of light and click chemistry. While the reactions designated as "photoclick" have many important features in common, each has its own particular combination of advantages and shortcomings. A more extensive realization of the potential of this chemistry requires a broader understanding of the physical and chemical characteristics of the specific reactions. This review discusses the features of the most frequently employed photoclick reactions reported in the literature: photomediated azide-alkyne cycloadditions, other 1,3-dipolarcycloadditions, Diels-Alder and inverse electron demand Diels-Alder additions, radical alternating addition chain transfer additions, and nucleophilic additions. Applications of these reactions in a variety of chemical syntheses, materials chemistry, and biological contexts are surveyed, with particular attention paid to the respective strengths and limitations of each reaction and how that reaction benefits from its combination with light. Finally, challenges to broader employment of these reactions are discussed, along with strategies and opportunities to mitigate such obstacles.

Abstract
Thiol-yne reactions have drawn attention because of the click nature as well as the regular step-growth network nature of their products, despite the radical-mediated reactant. However, the factors governing the reaction pathways have not been examined using quantum chemical tools in a comprehensive manner. Thereupon, we have systematically investigated the mechanism of thiol-yne reactions, focusing on the structural influences of thiol and alkyne functionalities. The reaction kinetics, structure-reactivity relations, and E/Z diastereoselectivity of the products have been enlightened for the first cycle of the thiol-yne polymerization reaction. For this reason, a diverse set of 11 thiol-yne reactions with four thiols and eight alkynes was modeled by means of density functional theory. We performed a benchmark study and determined the M06-2X/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory as the best cost-effective methodology to model such reactions. Results reveal that spin density, the stabilities of sulfur radicals for propagation, and the stability of alkenyl intermediate radicals for the chain transfer are the determining factors of each reaction rate. Intramolecular π-π stacking interactions at transition-state structures are found to be responsible for Z diastereoselectivity.

Abstract
In this work, we treated chitin with 2-(azidomethyl)oxirane and successfully involved the resultant azido chitin derivatives in the ultrasound-assisted Cu(I)-catalyzed azido-alkyne click (CuAAC) reaction with propargylic ester of N,N,N-trimethyl glycine. Thus, we obtained novel water-soluble triazole chitin derivatives. The triazole chitin derivatives and their nanoparticles are characterized by a high in vitro antibacterial activity, which is the same or even higher than that of commercial antibiotics ampicillin and gentamicin. The obtained derivatives are non-toxic. Moreover, the obtained water-soluble polymers are highly efficient green catalysts for the aldol reaction in green solvent water. The catalysts can be easily extracted from the reaction mixture by its precipitation with green solvent ethanol followed by centrifugation and they can be reused at least 10 times.

Abstract
Despite the many advancements in the pharmaceutical and medical fields and the development of numerous antimicrobial drugs aimed to suppress and destroy pathogenic microorganisms, infectious diseases still represent a major health threat affecting millions of lives daily. In addition to the limitations of antimicrobial drugs associated with low transportation rate, water solubility, oral bioavailability and stability, inefficient drug targeting, considerable toxicity, and limited patient compliance, the major cause for their inefficiency is the antimicrobial resistance of microorganisms. In this context, the risk of a pre-antibiotic era is a real possibility. For this reason, the research focus has shifted toward the discovery and development of novel and alternative antimicrobial agents that could overcome the challenges associated with conventional drugs. Nanotechnology is a possible alternative, as there is significant evidence of the broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity of nanomaterials and nanoparticles in particular. Moreover, owing to their considerable advantages regarding their efficient cargo dissolving, entrapment, encapsulation, or surface attachment, the possibility of forming antimicrobial groups for specific targeting and destruction, biocompatibility and biodegradability, low toxicity, and synergistic therapy, polymeric nanoparticles have received considerable attention as potential antimicrobial drug delivery agents. In this context, the aim of this paper is to provide an up-to-date overview of the most recent studies investigating polymeric nanoparticles designed for antimicrobial therapies, describing both their targeting strategies and their effects.

Abstract
A facile route towards new chitin derivatives with both catalytical and biological activities is proposed in the course of methodology development aimed at the design of polyfunctional materials on the basis of renewable and accessible natural polysaccharides. Ultrasound-promoted and Cu(I)-catalyzed azido-alkyne click cycloaddition of the propargylic ester of nicotinic acid and its N-methylated analogue to the azido chitin derivative allowed us to obtain previously unknown non-toxic water-soluble derivatives of chitin. The obtained polymers and their based nanoparticles demonstrated a high antibacterial activity in vitro, which is comparable or even superior to that of commercial antibiotics ampicillin and gentamicin. New derivatives of chitin were also shown to be highly efficient and reusable (at least for 10 times) green catalysts for the aldol reaction in water. The catalysts can be easily separated from the reaction mixture by their precipitation with ethanol. The results obtained highlight prospects of further studies on chitin's application in the rational design of novel functional materials with valuable properties.

Abstract
In the present work, we demonstrate that alkylation of chitosan by alkyl halides, aza-Michael reaction with chitosan, and AdN-E reaction of chitosan with aldehydes can be efficiently mediated by ultrasound. An optimization of ultrasonic irradiation parameters allowed us to (i) accelerate the rate of the reactions dramatically, (ii) achieve high selectivity, and (iii) preserve integrity of the polysaccharide backbone avoiding its depolymerization. We evaluated antibacterial/antifungal and transfection activity of 8 different derivatives of chitosan and their based nanoparticles in vitro. Moreover, we studied antibacterial activity of the most efficient polymer and their based nanoparticles in vivo. The tested polymer proved to be superior to reference commercial antibiotics ampicillin and gentamicin.

Abstract
With a growing health threat of bacterial resistance to antibiotics, the nanomaterials have been extensively studied as an alternative. It is assumed that antimicrobial nanomaterials can affect bacteria by several mechanisms simultaneously and thereby overcome antibiotic resistance. Another promising potential use is employing nanomaterials as nanocarriers for antibiotics in order to overcome bacterial defense mechanisms. The passive targeting of nanomaterials is the often used strategy for bacterial treatment, including intracellular infections of macrophages. Furthermore, the specific targeting enhances the efficacy of antimicrobials and reduces side effects. This review aims to discuss advantages, disadvantages, and challenges of nanomaterials in the context of the targeting strategies for antimicrobials as advanced tools for treatments of bacterial infections. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Infectious Disease.
