Animals (Basel) 2021; 11:ani11123412. [PMID: 34944189 PMCID: PMC8697910 DOI: 10.3390/ani11123412] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2021] [Revised: 11/23/2021] [Accepted: 11/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Wound infection in animals with antimicrobial resistant bacteria, especially Staphylococcus pseudintermedius, plays an important role in the delay of wound healing. In this work, the antimicrobial and wound healing activities of gels containing anisotropic AgNPs were evaluated on wounds contaminated with Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius in a mice model. The results show that anisotropic AgNPs gel is effective in eliminating bacteria and preventing pus formation. Furthermore, anisotropic AgNPs gel exhibits improved collagen alignment that supports scar disappearance. Abstract Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (S. pseudintermedius) infected wounds can cause seriously delayed wound healing processes in animals. Antimicrobial agents that have antimicrobial and wound healing efficacy have become an essential tool for overcoming this problem. In our previous study, anisotropic AgNPs have been reported to have antimicrobial efficiency against animal and human pathogens, and could be suitable as antimicrobial agents for infected wounds. Here, antimicrobial and wound healing activities of anisotropic AgNPs gels were assessed in vivo. BALB/cAJcl mice wounds were infected by Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (MRSP). Then, antibacterial and wound healing activities were evaluated by bacterial cell count, wound contraction, digital capture, and histology. The results show that anisotropic AgNPs gels could eliminate all bacterial cell infected wounds within 7 days, the same as povidone iodine. Wound healing activity was evaluated by wound contraction (%). The results showed 100% wound contraction in groups treated with anisotropic AgNPs gels within 14 days that was not significantly different from povidone iodine and control gel without AgNPs. However, the digital capture of wounds on day 4 showed that anisotropic AgNPs gel prevented pus formation and reduced scar appearance within 21 days. The histology results exhibit improved collagen fiber alignment that supports scar disappearance. In conclusion, these results indicate that anisotropic AgNPs gels are suitable for treating infected wounds. The gel is effective in eliminating bacteria that supports the natural process of wound repair and also causes reduced scar formation.

Carbohydr Polym 2020; 245:116513.

Abstract
The silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) can exhibit different optical properties depending on their size and shape as a result of synthesis method and the stabilizer used. In this research the synthesis of AgNPs in the presence of nanocellulose obtained from carrot pomace was investigated. The influence of silver nitrate concentration, temperature and mechanical agitation on size and shape of AgNPs was studied. The mixing of reagents during synthesis, regardless temperature, led to obtain AgNPs of various sizes and shapes. It was confirmed by different colors of samples with absorbance maximum from 334 to 779 nm, the transmission electron microscopy images and dynamic light scattering results. In unmixed samples only spherical nanoparticles with absorbance maximum at 408 nm were observed. Obtained results have demonstrated that mechanical agitation and an appropriate silver nitrate concentration combined with stabilizing effect of nanocellulose allow to obtain AgNPs in different shapes and sizes.

Abstract
Hybrid colloids consisting of noble metal cores and metal oxide shells have been under intense investigation for over two decades and have driven progress in diverse research lines including sensing, medicine, catalysis, and photovoltaics. Consequently, plasmonic core-shell particles have come to play a vital role in a plethora of applications. Here, an overview is provided of recent developments in the design and utilization of the most successful class of such hybrid materials, silica-coated plasmonic metal nanoparticles. Besides summarizing common simple approaches to silica shell growth, special emphasis is put on advanced synthesis routes that either overcome typical limitations of classical methods, such as stability issues and undefined silica porosity, or grant access to particularly sophisticated nanostructures. Hereby, a description is given, how different types of silica can be used to provide noble metal particles with specific functionalities. Finally, applications of such nanocomposites in ultrasensitive analyte detection, theranostics, catalysts, and thin-film solar cells are reviewed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bioanalytical sensing based on the principle of localized surface plasmon resonance experiences is currently an extremely rapid development. Novel sensors with new kinds of plasmonic transducers and innovative concepts for the signal development as well as read-out principles were identified. This review will give an overview of the development of this field. Areas covered: The focus is primarily on types of transducers by preparation or dimension, factors for optimal sensing concepts and the critical view of the usability of these devices as innovative sensors for bioanalytical applications. Expert commentary: Plasmonic sensor devices offer a high potential for future biosensing given that limiting factors such as long-time stability of the transducers, the required high sensitivity and the cost-efficient production are addressed. For higher sensitivity, the design of the sensor in shape and material has to be combined with optimal enhancement strategies. Plasmonic nanoparticles from bottom-up synthesis with a post-synthetic processing show a high potential for cost-efficient sensor production. Regarding the measurement principle, LSPRi offers a large potential for multiplex sensors and can provide a high-throughput as well as highly paralleled sensing. The main trends are expected towards optimal LSPR concepts which represent cost-efficient and robust point-of-care solutions, and the use of multiplexed devices for clinical applications.
