Immobilized lipase enzyme on green synthesized magnetic nanoparticles using Psidium guava leaves for dye degradation and antimicrobial activities. Sci Rep 2024; 14:8820. [PMID: 38627424 PMCID: PMC11021406 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-58840-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Zinc ferrite nanoparticles (ZnF NPs) were synthesized by a green method using Psidium guava Leaves extract and characterized via structural and optical properties. The surface of ZnF NPs was stabilized with citric acid (CA) by a direct addition method to obtain (ZnF-CA NPs), and then lipase (LP) enzyme was immobilized on ZnF-CA NPs to obtain a modified ZnF-CA-LP nanocomposite (NCs). The prepared sample's photocatalytic activity against Methylene blue dye (MB) was determined. The antioxidant activity of ZnF-CA-LP NCs was measured using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) as a source of free radicals. In addition, the antibacterial and antibiofilm capabilities of these substances were investigated by testing them against gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus ATCC 25923) and gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli ATCC 25922) bacterial strains. The synthesized ZnF NPs were discovered to be situated at the core of the material, as determined by XRD, HRTEM, and SEM investigations, while the CA and lipase enzymes were coated in this core. The ZnF-CA-LP NCs crystallite size was around 35.0 nm at the (311) plane. Results obtained suggested that 0.01 g of ZnF-CA-LP NCs achieved 96.0% removal of 5.0 ppm of MB at pH 9.0. In-vitro zone of inhibition (ZOI) and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) results verified that ZnF-CA-LP NCs exhibited its encouraged antimicrobial activity against S. aureus and E. coli (20.0 ± 0.512, and 27.0 ± 0.651 mm ZOI, respectively) & (1.25, and 0.625 μg/ml MIC, respectively). ZnF-CA-LP NPs showed antibiofilm percentage against S. aureus (88.4%) and E. coli (96.6%). Hence, ZnF-CA-LP NCs are promising for potential applications in environmental and biomedical uses.

Immobilization of Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase in a novel polysaccharide-based hydrogel by a two-step crosslinking method and its use in the lauroylation of α-arbutin. BIORESOUR BIOPROCESS 2024; 11:7.

Abstract
The Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase (TLLs) was successfully immobilized within a novel hydrogel matrix through a two-step crosslinking method. TLLs were initially crosslinked through the Schiff base reaction by oxidized carboxymethyl cellulose (OCMC). The water-soluble OCMC@TLLs complex was subsequently crosslinked by carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCSH) in a microfluidic apparatus to form the CMCHS/OCMC@TLLs microspheres. The CD (Circular Dichroism, CD) and FT-IR (Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy, FT-IR) spectra demonstrated that the crosslinking of TLLs with OCMC resulted in a less significant impact on their structure compared to that with glutaraldehyde. CMCHS/OCMC@TLLs showed decreased catalytic performance due to the mass transfer resistance, while its thermal stability was greatly improved. The CMCHS/OCMC@TLLs were used to catalyze the lauroylation of arbutin in tetrahydrofuran. After 12 h of reaction under optimal conditions, the yield of 6'-O-lauryl arbutin reached an impressive 92.12%. The prepared 6'-O-lauryl arbutin has high lipophilicity and exhibits similar tyrosinase inhibitory activity and higher antioxidant activity compared to its parent compound.

Abstract
A myriad of therapeutic agents and drug delivery systems are available to the surgeons for treating orthopedic implant-associated infections (OIAI), but only very few have demonstrated their effectiveness in preventing bacteria colonization and biofilm formation due to challenges in the local and sustainable therapeutic release. To address this issue, in this work, a thermosensitive injectable hydrogel based on chitosan (CH)-integrated hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HAP NPs) containing vancomycin (Van) and quercetin (QC)-loaded in F127 micelles (CH-HAP-FQ-Van hydrogel) was fabricated with potential application in the treatment of OIAI. This dual drug delivery system demonstrated a pH-sensitive drug release pattern. In addition, 100 % growth inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus for a duration of 14 days was observed. Apart from the strong antioxidant activities owing to the co-administration of QC even after 432 h, this composite hydrogel revealed 95.88 ± 2.8 % S. aureus biofilm eradication. By consideration of degradation stability (53.52 ± 4.24 %) during 60 days along with smart gelation within 10 min at 37 °C and easy injectability, CH-HAP-FQ-Van hydrogel could be used as a promising ideal local drug delivery system for implant-related infections.

Abstract
India generates 126.6 and 42 million tons of Rice straw (RS) and Rice husk (RH) annually, respectively. These agro-processing wastes feedstock are dumped in landfills or burnt, releasing toxic gases and particulate matter into the environment. This paper explores the valorization of these wastes feedstock into sustainable, economic products. We compare these wastes as matrices for lipase immobilization. These matrices were characterized, different parameters (pH, temperature, ionic strength, and metal ion cofactors) were checked, and the selected matrix was analyzed for reusability and hydrolysis of vegetable oils. Lipase immobilized Rice straw (LIRS) showed the highest activity with 72.84% protein loading. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) demonstrated morphological changes after enzyme immobilization. FTIR showed no new bond formation, and immobilization data was fitted to Freundlich adsorption isotherm (with K = 12.18 mg/g, nF = 4.5). The highest activity with protein loading, 91.05%, was observed at pH 8, 37 °C temperature, 50 mM ionic strength, and lipase activity doubled in the presence of Mg2+ ions. The LIRS retained 75% of its initial activity up to five cycles and efficiently hydrolyzed different oils. The results reflected that the LIRS system performs better and can be used to degrade oily waste.

Abstract
Nanosized MFe2O4 (M = Co, Mn, or Zn) photocatalysts were synthesized via a simple sol–gel method. MFe2O4 photocatalysts exhibited lower photocatalytic activity for the degradation of levofloxacin hydrochloride under visible light irradiation. For enhancement of photocatalytic activity, MFe2O4 was used to activate peroxymonosulfate and degrade levofloxacin hydrochloride under visible light irradiation. The influences of peroxymonosulfate dosage, levofloxacin hydrochloride concentration, pH value, and temperature on peroxymonosulfate activation to degrade levofloxacin hydrochloride were investigated in detail. The mechanism of activation of peroxymonosulfate by MFe2O4 was proposed and proved by radical quenching experiments, electron spin resonance analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and transient photocurrent responses. The combined activation effects of photogenerated e−/h+ and transition metals on peroxymonosulfate to produce sulfate radical clearly enhanced the degradation efficiency. The combined activation effects of photogenerated e−/h+, Fe, Co, Mn, and Zn on peroxymonosulfate to produce SO4˙− clearly enhanced the degradation efficiency.![]()
