Carbohydr Polym 2023; 315:120977. [PMID: 37230616 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.120977] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2023] [Revised: 04/23/2023] [Accepted: 04/30/2023] [Indexed: 05/27/2023]
Abstract
Granular macroscopic chitosan/carboxymethylcellulose polyelectrolytic complexes (CHS/CMC macro-PECs) were produced and tested as adsorbents for six pollutants often present in wastewaters: sunset yellow (YS), methylene blue (MB), Congo red (CR) and safranin (S), cadmium (Cd2+) and lead (Pb2+). The optimum adsorption pH values at 25 °C were 3.0, 11.0, 2.0, 9.0, 10.0, and 9.0 for YS, MB, CR, S, Cd2+, and Pb2+, respectively. Kinetic studies indicated that the pseudos-econd order model best represented the adsorption kinetics of YS, MB, CR, and Cd2+, whereas the pseudo-first order model was the most suitable for S and Pb2+ adsorption. The Langmuir, Freundlich, and Redlich-Peterson isotherms were fitted to experimental adsorption data, with the Langmuir model providing the best fit. The maximum adsorption capacity (qmáx) of CHS/CMC macro-PECs for the removal of YS, MB, CR, S, Cd2+, and Pb2+ was 37.81, 36.44, 70.86, 72.50, 75.43, and 74.42 mg/g, respectively (corresponding to 98.91 %, 94.71 %, 85.73 %, 94.66 %, 98.46 %, and 97.14 %). Desorption assays showed that CHS/CMC macro-PECs can be regenerated after adsorbing any of the six pollutants studied, with possibility of reuse. These results provide an accurate quantitative characterization of the adsorption of organic and inorganic pollutants on CHS/CMC macro-PECs, indicating a novel technological applicability of these two inexpensive, easy-to-obtain polysaccharides for water decontamination.

Abstract
In the treatment of bacterial contamination, the problem of multi-drug resistance is becoming an increasingly pressing concern. Nanotechnology advancements enable the preparation of metal nanoparticles that can be assembled into complex systems to control bacterial and tumor cell growth. The current work investigates the green production of chitosan functionalized silver nanoparticles (CS/Ag NPs) using Sida acuta and their inhibition efficacy against bacterial pathogens and lung cancer cells (A549). Initially, a brown color formation confirmed the synthesis, and the chemical nature of the synthesized NPs were examined by UV-vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). FTIR demonstrated the occurrence of CS and S. acuta functional groups in the synthesized CS/Ag NPs. The electron microscopy study exhibited CS/Ag NPs with a spherical morphology and size ranges of 6-45 nm, while XRD analysis demonstrated the crystallinity of Ag NPs. Further, the bacterial inhibition property of CS/Ag NPs was examined against K. pneumoniae and S. aureus, which showed clear inhibition zones at different concentrations. In addition, the antibacterial properties were further confirmed by a fluorescent AO/EtBr staining technique. Furthermore, prepared CS/Ag NPs exhibited a potential anti-cancer character against a human lung cancer cell line (A549). In conclusion, our findings revealed that the produced CS/Ag NPs could be used as an excellent inhibitory material in industrial and clinical sectors.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized using the whole plant of Duchesnea indica (DI) which was extracted in different solvents; the antimicrobial effects of the extract were investigated in this study. The extraction of DI was performed using three different solvents: water, pure ethanol (EtOH), and pure dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). AgNP formation was monitored by measuring the UV-Vis spectrum of each reaction solution. After synthesis for 48 h, the AgNPs were collected and the negative surface charge and size distribution of the synthesized AgNPs were measured using dynamic light scattering (DLS). The AgNP structure was determined by high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the AgNP morphology was investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). AgNP antibacterial activities were evaluated against Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella enteritidis, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa using the disc diffusion method. Additionally, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) values were also determined. Biosynthesized AgNPs showed enhanced antibacterial activity against B. cereus, S. aureus, E. coli, S. enteritidis, and P. aeruginosa compared with that of pristine solvent extract. These results suggest that AgNPs synthesized from extracts of DI are promising antibacterial agents against pathogenic bacteria and can be further applied in the food industry.

Abstract
Controlling mosquitoes is vital for counteracting the rising number of mosquito-borne illnesses. Vector control requires the implementation of various measures; however, current methods lack complete effectiveness, and new control agents or substances are urgently needed. Therefore, this study developed a nonwoven fabric sheet coated with hydroxyapatite-binding silver/titanium dioxide compound (hydroxyapatite-binding silver/titanium dioxide sheet [HATS])and evaluated its effectiveness on all stages of laboratory Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus); Diptera: Culicidae and Anopheles dirus (Peyton & Harrison); Diptera: Culicidae. We reared larvae with HATS and control sheets and assessed their mortality, emergence, and hatching rates. The submersion rates of engorged female mosquitoes in submerged HATS and control sheets were also compared. The HATS strongly affected mosquito development, resulting in high mortality rates (mean ± SE) of 99.66 ± 0.58% (L1-L2) and 91.11 ± 9.20% (L3-L4) for Ae. aegypti and 100% of both stages for An. dirus. In contrast, mosquitoes raised in the control sheet showed relatively high survival rates of 92.33 ± 3.21% (L1-L2) and 95.67 ± 0.58% (L3-L4) for Ae. aegypti and 86.07 ± 3.53% (L1-L2) and 92.01 ± 8.67% (L3-L4) for An. dirus. Submersion of engorged females was found in the HATS oviposition cup, leading to a decreased number of eggs and a low hatching rate compared to that of the control. Overall, HATS may be a useful new control method for Ae. aegypti and An. dirus.

Abstract
Green synthesis of nanoparticles provides numerous advantages over physical and chemical methods because of low toxicity, high yields, cost-effectiveness, environmentally benign, and energy efficiency. Therefore, we focused on the facile and green synthesis of isotropic silver nanoparticles using the metabolic extract of Cytobacillus kochii. During synthesis, the physicochemical parameters were optimized and validated using the response surface methodology statistical tool. The presence of potent bioactive compounds that aid in the biofabrication of nanoparticles was identified in the gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy analysis and the synthesis was confirmed by surface plasmon resonance peak at 420 nm. Characterization of nanoparticles was performed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, and X-ray diffraction. The synthesized nanoparticles showed potent antioxidant properties and displayed an excellent catalytic reduction potential in the degradation of hazardous dyes, such as methylene blue, phenol red, and 4-nitrophenol. Furthermore, compared to the chemically synthesized silver nanoparticles and crude extract, the biogenic silver nanoparticles exhibited a broad-spectrum antimicrobial potential. Our results demonstrate that the reported silver nanoparticles with unique characteristics might be of great promise as biomedical and catalytic agents for industrial applications.

Abstract
Zinc oxide (ZnO) and silver-zinc oxide (Ag/ZnO) nanocomposite were synthesized by a green method using Zn(CH3COO)2 and AgNO3 as precursors for zinc and silver respectively; and Urginea epigea bulb extract as a reducing/capping agent. The nanomaterials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR), ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer, scanning, and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM). Their elemental composition was studied using EDX analysis, while elementary mapping was used to show the distribution of the constituent elements. The powder X-ray diffraction confirmed hexagonal phase ZnO, while the Ag/ZnO nanocomposites identified additional planes due to cubic phase Ag nanoparticles. The absorption spectrum of the nanocomposite indicated a red shifting of the absorption band of the metallic ZnO and a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) band's appearance in the visible region due to the metallic Ag nanoparticles. The analysis from the TEM image showed the particles were of spherical morphology with a mean size of 35 nm (ZnO) and 33.50 nm (Ag/ZnO). The biological activity of the nanoparticles was studied for their antibacterial and antioxidant capacity so as to assess their ability to hinder bacterial growth and capture radical species respectively. The results demonstrated that the modification of ZnO with silver nanoparticles enhanced the antibacterial potency but reduced the antioxidant activity. This biogenic method offers a facile approach to nanoparticles for biological purposes, and the strategy may be extended to other metal oxide and their composites with metallic silver nanoparticles as a more effective approach compared to the physical and chemical routes.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is the study and control of materials at length scales between 1 and 100 nanometers (nm), where incredible phenomena enable new applications. It affects all aspects of human life and is the most active research topic in modern materials science. Among the various metallic nanoparticles used in biomedical applications, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are among the most important and interesting nanomaterials. The aim of this study was to synthesize AgNPs from the leaf extract of Myrsine africana to investigate their antibacterial, antioxidant, and phytotoxic activities. When the leaf extract was treated with AgNO3, the color of the reaction solution changed from light brown to dark brown, indicating the formation of AgNPs. The UV-visible spectrum showed an absorption peak at 438 nm, confirming the synthesis of AgNPs. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the AgNPs were spherical and oval with an average size of 28.32 nm. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirms the presence of bio-compound functional groups on the surface of the AgNPs. The crystalline nature of the AgNPs was confirmed by XRD pattern. These biosynthesized AgNPs showed pronounced antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, with higher inhibitory activity against Escherichia coli. At 40 µg/mL AgNPs, the highest antioxidant activity was obtained, which was 57.7% and an IC50 value of 77.56 µg/mL. A significant positive effect was observed on all morphological parameters when AgNPs were applied to wheat seedlings under constant external conditions at the different concentrations. The present study provides a cost-effective and environmentally friendly method for the synthesis of AgNPs, which can be effectively used in the field of therapeutics, as antimicrobial and diagnostic agents, and as plant growth promoters.

Water pollution is considered as one the major threatens to human health and aquatic bodies which causes various severe harmful diseases including gastrointestinal disorders, asthma, cancer, etc. The polluted wastewater could be treated by different conventional and advanced methodologies. Amongst them, adsorption is the most utilized low cost, efficient technique to treat and remove the harmful pollutants from the wastewater. The efficiency of adsorption mainly depends on the surface properties such as functional group availability and surface area of the adsorbents used. Since various waste-based carbon derivatives are utilized as adsorbents for harmful pollutants removal; nanomaterials are employed as effective adsorbents in recent times due to its excellent surface properties. This review presents an overview of the different types of nanomaterials such as nano-particles, nanotubes, nano-sheets, nano-rods, nano-spheres, quantum dots, etc. which have been synthesized by different chemical and green synthesis methodologies using plants, microorganisms, biomolecules and carbon derivatives, metals and metal oxides and polymers. By concentrating on potential research difficulties, this study offers a new viewpoint on fundamental field of nanotechnology for wastewater treatment applications. This review paper critically reviewed the synthesis of nanomaterials more importantly green synthesis and their applications in wastewater treatment to remove the harmful pollutants such as heavy metals, dyes, pesticides, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, etc.

Abstract
Global agriculture is facing tremendous challenges due to climate change. The most predominant amongst these challenges are abiotic and biotic stresses caused by increased incidences of temperature extremes, drought, unseasonal flooding, and pathogens. These threats, mostly due to anthropogenic activities, resulted in severe challenges to crop and livestock production leading to substantial economic losses. It is essential to develop environmentally viable and cost-effective green processes to alleviate these stresses in the crops, livestock, and fisheries. The application of nanomaterials in farming practice to minimize nutrient losses, pest management, and enhance stress resistance capacity is of supreme importance. This paper explores innovative methods for synthesizing metallic and non-metallic nanoparticles using plants, animals, and fisheries wastes and their valorization to mitigate abiotic and biotic stresses and input use efficiency in climate-smart and stress-resilient agriculture including crop plants, livestock, and fisheries.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has become the most effective and rapidly developing field in the area of material science, and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are of leading interest because of their smaller size, larger surface area, and multiple applications. The use of plant sources as reducing agents in the fabrication of silver nanoparticles is most attractive due to the cheaper and less time-consuming process for synthesis. Furthermore, the tremendous attention of AgNPs in scientific fields is due to their multiple biomedical applications such as antibacterial, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory activities, and they could be used for clean environment applications. In this review, we briefly describe the types of nanoparticle syntheses and various applications of AgNPs, including antibacterial, anticancer, and larvicidal applications and photocatalytic dye degradation. It will be helpful to the extent of a better understanding of the studies of biological synthesis of AgNPs and their multiple uses.

Abstract
To valorise olive mill wastewater phenols (OPs) potentially applied in food preservation, a novel stable and regularly spherical OPs-AgNPs (Davg = 78 nm) were successfully assembled in aqueous solution under the optimized conditions (pH 8.0, 5 mM AgNO3, 35C and 30 min). The results of antimicrobial zone diameters indicated that 50 μg/mL of promising OPs-AgNPs presented excellent antimicrobial effects. Especially, the cell wall damages of E. coli ATCC 23,815 were caused when OPs-AgNPs concentration was exceeded its MIC (8.58 μg/mL). Also, a significant down-regulating of the Ca2+-ATPase activity in E. coli was revealed, and the intracellular Ca2+ concentrations were thus decreased from 12.5 to 1.35 µg/mL after a treatment for 3 h. The apoptosis level of E. coli was significantly increased more than the control (55.13% of OPs-AgNPs vs 9.90% of control). In sum, OPs exerts enhanced antimicrobial function via penetrating cell membrane and targeting Ca2+-ATPase after chelated with AgNPs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The use of environmentally benign resources for nanoparticles synthesis is consistently pushed to the front burner in a bid to ensure and enhance environmental protection and beneficiation. In this light, application of different plant parts for the reduction and stabilization of nanoparticles is gaining popularity. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this contribution, we have exploited Securidaca inappendiculata stem extract (SISE), as the reducing and stabilizing agent for room temperature synthesis of highly stable and dispersed AgNPs. The major bioactive compounds in SISE were profiled using an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS-QTOF-MS). RESULTS AND DISCUSSION SISE could reduce silver salts to its nanoparticles almost instantaneously with a maximum absorption spectrum at 423 nm, under the optimal conditions. The fabricated SISE AgNPs was extensively characterized using FTIR, TEM, SEM, XRD, EDS, Zeta analysis/DLS and TGA/DTG analysis. SISE AgNPs with average particles size between 10-15 nm and a zeta potential value of -19.5 ± 1.8 mV was obtained. It was investigated for in-vitro biological applications by carrying out, antimicrobial, antioxidant, hemolytic, cytotoxicity and antidiabetic assays. It was found that SISE AgNPs exhibited potent antimicrobial capacity against some food borne microbes, good antioxidant property, while also demonstrating high biocompatibility. Moreover, with a view to extending further the applications SISE AgNPs, it was tested as a colorimetric nanoprobe for Hg2+ detection in aqueous environment, where good linearity between 0.10 and 10.0 μM, with a detection limit of 26.5 nM, were obtained. The practicality of the probe was investigated by carrying out Hg2+ detection in water sample, with good accuracy and precision. DISCUSSION Overall, this work introduced a new stabilizer for biocompatible AgNPs with far-reaching applications.

Abstract
The main emphasis herein is on the eco‐friendly synthesis and assessment of the antimicrobial potential of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and a cytotoxicity study. Silver nanoparticles were synthesised by an extracellular method using bacterial supernatant. Biosynthesised silver nanoparticles were characterised by UV‐vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, and zeta potential analysis. The synthesised silver nanoparticles exhibited a characteristic peak at 420 nm. TEM analysis depicted the spherical shape and approximately 20 nm size of nanoparticles. Silver nanoparticles carry a charge of −33.75 mV, which confirms their stability. Biogenic polyvinyl pyrrolidone‐coated AgNPs exhibited significant antimicrobial effects against all opportunistic pathogens (Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria, and fungi). Silver nanoparticles equally affect the growth of both Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria, with a maximum inhibition zone observed at 22 mm and a minimum at 13 mm against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Fusarium graminearum, respectively. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of AgNPs against P. aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus was recorded at between 15 and 20 μg/ml. Synthesised nanoparticles exhibited a significant synergistic effect in combination with conventional antibiotics. Cytotoxicity estimates using C2C12 skeletal muscle cell line via 3‐(4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) test and lactate dehydrogenase assay were directly related to the concentration of AgNPs and length of exposure. On the basis of the MTT test, the IC50 of AgNPs for the C2C12 cell line was approximately 5.45 μg/ml concentration after 4 h exposure.

Abstract
The aim of the current paper is the development of phytosynthesized silver nanoparticles mediated by Raphanus sativus L. extracts obtained through two extraction methods (temperature and microwave) and to test their potential application for controlling apple crops pathogens. The phytosynthesized materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. All the materials were evaluated in terms of antioxidant and in vitro antimicrobial activity (against bacteria, molds, and yeast: Escherichia coli ATCC 8738, Staphylococcus aureus ATTC 25923, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 9027, Salmonella typhimurium ATCC 14028, Candida albicans ATCC 10231, Venturia inaequalis, Podosphaera leucotricha, Fusarium oxysporum ATCC 48112, Penicillium hirsutum ATCC 52323, and Aspergillus niger ATCC 15475). Considering the results obtained in the in vitro assays, formulations based on nanoparticles phytosynthesized using Raphanus sativus L. waste extracts (RS1N) were evaluated as potential antifungal agents for horticultural crops protection, against Venturia inaequalis and Podosphaera leucotricha through in vivo assays. For the DPPH assay, the inhibition (%) varied between 37.06% (for RS1N at 0.8 mg/mL concentration) and 83.72% (for RS1N at 7.2 mg/mL concentration) compared to 19.97% (for RS2N at 0.8 mg/mL) and only 28.91% (for RS2N at 7.2 mg/mL). Similar results were obtained for RS3N (85.42% inhibition at 7.2 mg/mL) compared with RS4N (21.76% inhibition at 7.2 mg/mL). Regarding the ABTS assay, the highest scavenger activity values were recorded for samples RS1N (91.43% at 1.6 mg/mL) and RS3N (96.62% at 1.6 mg/mL).

Abstract
Bionanotechnology is considered a safe and ecofriendly route for the biosynthesis of metal nanoparticles from plant extracts, microorganisms, and biomaterials. The present study was focused on the fabrication of silver nanoparticles (<50 nm) biogenically from the novel Centratherum anthelmminticum's aqueous seed extract. The obtained nanoproduct was evaluated by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-Visible spectroscopy, FTIR and Raman spectroscopy. The particle size and surface charge were estimated by Dynamic light scattering (DLS) and Zeta potential measurements. The nanoparticles showed cubic close packed (ccp) morphology with miller indices (111), (200), (220), (311) and (222). The λmax for synthesized silver nanoparticles was measured in the range of 436 nm, 464 nm and 467 nm for 1 mM, 5 mM and 10 mM samples, respectively. The bioreduction of silver ions exhibited a gradual color change which confirms the formation of silver nanoparticles under UV-visible spectrum. Ag-O and Ag-N stretching vibrations corresponding to the bond formation between silver and oxygen of the carboxylate group and nitrogen of amine was corroborated by the presence of a sharp peak in Raman spectra at 245 cm-1. Antimicrobial activity was assessed against eight bacterial and three fungal strains. The silver nanoparticles fabricated from 10 mM AgNO3 solution showed significant results against all Gram-negative bacteria, with the further restriction in growth of C. albicans and A. niger. From in-vitro antimicrobial assay, it was observed that drug-loaded silver nanoparticles (Ciprofloxacin +10 mM) displayed a stronger potential than the synthesized silver nanoparticles and ciprofloxacin alone to restrain the development of E. coli, and E. aerogenes.

Abstract
Synthesis of metal nanoparticles using plant extracts is one of the most simple, convenient, economical, and environmentally friendly methods that mitigate the involvement of toxic chemicals. Hence, in recent years, several eco-friendly processes for the rapid synthesis of silver nanoparticles have been reported using aqueous extracts of plant parts such as the leaf, bark, roots, etc. This review summarizes and elaborates the new findings in this research domain of the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using different plant extracts and their potential applications as antimicrobial agents covering the literature since 2015. While highlighting the recently used different plants for the synthesis of highly efficient antimicrobial green AgNPs, we aim to provide a systematic in-depth discussion on the possible influence of the phytochemicals and their concentrations in the plants extracts, extraction solvent, and extraction temperature, as well as reaction temperature, pH, reaction time, and concentration of precursor on the size, shape and stability of the produced AgNPs. Exhaustive details of the plausible mechanism of the interaction of AgNPs with the cell wall of microbes, leading to cell death, and high antimicrobial activities have also been elaborated. The shape and size-dependent antimicrobial activities of the biogenic AgNPs and the enhanced antimicrobial activities by synergetic interaction of AgNPs with known commercial antibiotic drugs have also been comprehensively detailed.

Abstract
AIMS Conventional antibiotics have been failed to treat infectious diseases due to emergence of multidrug resistance (MDR) in some common pathogens. The current study aimed to formulate new antimicrobials from greener sources. In the midst of these efforts, nanotechnology is a newly emerged field, in which the synthesis of new nanoparticles through novel and efficient means is on the rise. METHODS AND RESULTS The current work has been carried out to assess the potential of Fraxinus xanthoxyloides (FX) leaf extract in biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (FX-AgNPs). This method is economical and simple one-step approach to synthesize AgNPs. Characterization of FX-AgNPs has been done by UV-Visible spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electronic microscope (TEM) and Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The formation of FX-AgNPs has confirmed through UV-Visible spectroscopy (at 430 nm) by change of colour owing to surface Plasmon resonance. Based on the XRD pattern, the crystalline property of FX-AgNPs has established. Functional groups existing in F. xanthoxyloides leaf extract are confirmed by FT-IR spectrum. SEM and TEM authenticated morphology of the AgNPs. The newly synthesized nanoparticles were evaluated for their antimicrobial potential. Minimum inhibitory concentration was determined against Escherichia coli, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans by microtiter plate assay. The lowest inhibition (69%) observed against MRSA was at a concentration of 50 ppm FX-AgNPs and maximum inhibition (81%) observed was against P. aeruginosa. The biosynthesized AgNPs triggered up to 68·6% reduction of the P. aeruginosa biofilm when compared to the control. CONCLUSION It can be concluded that nanoparticles could be a better alternative of antibiotics with greater efficacies and represent a valuable milestone to fight against infections caused by MDR pathogens. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This study imparts a useful insight into the development of a new antimicrobial agent from a novel source.

Abstract
Foodborne diseases are one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality, especially in low-income countries with poor sanitation and inadequate healthcare facilities. The foremost bacterial pathogens responsible for global outbreaks include Salmonella species, Campylobacter jejuni, Escherichia coli, Shigella sp., Vibrio, Listeria monocytogenes and Clostridium botulinum. Among the viral and parasitic pathogens, norovirus, hepatitis A virus, Giardia lamblia, Trichinella spiralis, Toxoplasma and Entamoeba histolytica are commonly associated with foodborne diseases. The toxins produced by Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus and Clostridium perfringens also cause these infections. The currently available therapies for these infections are associated with various limited efficacy, high cost and side-effects. There is an urgent need for effective alternative therapies for the prevention and treatment of foodborne diseases. Several plant extracts and phytochemicals were found to be highly effective to control the growth of these pathogens causing foodborne infections in in vitro systems. The present review attempts to provide comprehensive scientific information on major foodborne pathogens and the potential role of phytochemicals in the prevention and treatment of these infections. Further detailed studies are necessary to evaluate the activities of these extracts and phytochemicals along with their mechanism of action using in vivo models.

Abstract
Mosquitoes spread several life-threatening diseases such as malaria, filaria, dengue, Japanese encephalitis, West Nile fever, chikungunya, and yellow fever and are associated with millions of deaths every year across the world. However, insecticides of synthetic origin are conventionally used for controlling various vector-borne diseases but they have various associated drawbacks like impact on non-targeted species, negative effects on the environment, and development of resistance in vector species by alteration of the target site. Plant extracts, phytochemicals, and their nanoformulations can serve as ovipositional attractants, insect growth regulators, larvicides, and repellents with least effects on the environment. Such plant-derived products exhibit broad-spectrum resistance against various mosquito species and are relatively cheaper, environmentally safer, biodegradable, easily accessible, and are non-toxic to non-targeted organisms. Therefore, in this review article, the current knowledge of phytochemical sources exhibiting larvicidal activity and their variations in response to solvents used for their extraction is underlined. Also, different methods such as physical, chemical, and biological for silver nanoparticle (AgNPs) synthesis, their mechanism of synthesis using plant extract, their potent larvicidal activity, and the possible mechanism by which these particles kill mosquito larvae are discussed. In addition, constraints related to commercialization of nanoherbal products at government and academic or research level and barriers from laboratory experiments to field trial have also been discussed. This comprehensive information can be gainfully employed for the development of herbal larvicidal formulations and nanopesticides against insecticide-resistant vector species in the near future.

Abstract
Zinc oxide (ZnO) micro and nanorods were successfully prepared using Pandanus amaryllifolius and hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) separately as stabilizers using the solution immersion method. Two types of ZnO seed layer were prepared using the same pre-cursor with the different stabilizers. The fabricated ZnO microrods exhibit absorption at ~375 nm as revealed from the UV-Visible absorption spectrum, and this is comparable with ZnO nanorods synthesized using HMTA. X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement displayed a sharp peak corresponding to the hexagonal wurtzite structure of ZnO microrods. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) of ZnO microrods showed average diameter at approximately 500 nm compared to 70 nm of those synthesized from HMTA. A new finding is the ability of Pandanus amaryllifolius as a green stabilizer to grow a dense ZnO microrod structure with high crystallinity. Results reveal that both samples from different stabilizers during the preparation of the ZnO seed layer greatly improved the morphological and structural properties and optical absorption of ZnO. The main outcomes from this study will benefit optoelectronic application, such as in ultraviolet (UV) sensors.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles were fabricated in the presence and absence of light with silver nitrate and aqueous extract of Prunus cerasifera leaf via facile and one-pot green method. P. cerasifera leaf extract reduced and stabilized the nanoparticles with phytometabolites expunging the need for addition of external reducing agents. Optimized silver nanoparticle syntheses was done with variations in leaf extract concentration, time, temperature, and molarity for deciphering the photocatalytic, antifungal, and antibacterial potential of synthesized nanoparticles. Optical, compositional, and morphological analyses of the synthesized nanoparticles were done by UV-visible spectrometry (UV-Vis), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Formation of silver nanoparticles was confirmed firstly through UV-Vis by exhibition of peaks with 400-450 nm. FTIR confirmed the presence of major organic groups responsible for reduction of nanoparticles. AFM confirmed the spherical morphology of the synthesized nanoparticles with remarkable dispersion without any agglomeration. Phytochemical analysis for P. cerasifera leaf metabolites was done by GC-MS. Spherical nanoparticles having a size range of 57-144 nm were obtained with face-centered cubic crystals. The average crystallite size obtained from XRD spectra was 2.34 nm. Enhanced photocatalytic first-order kinetics were obtained for persistent organic pollutants, i.e., crystal violet, methylene blue, and malachite green (R2 = 0.99, 0.99, 0.98) in less than 15 min. Biomedical and agricultural significance as an antibiotic drug and utilization as a fungicides substitute was explored against nine resistant microbes. Statistically significant variations were analyzed via one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Kruskal-Wallis test and specific multi comparison tests. Active to highly active inhibition zones manifested the use of biogenic silver nanoparticles as potential candidate for applications in biological arenas and as environmental remediators.

Abstract
Nanoparticles synthesized through the green route deserve special mention because this green technology is not only energy-efficient and cost-effective but also amenable to the environment. Various biological resources have been used for the generation of these 'green nanoparticles'. Biological wastes have also been focused in this direction thereby promoting the value of waste. Reports indicate that green nanoparticles exhibit remarkable antimicrobial activitiesboth singly as well as in combination with standard antibiotics. The current phenomenon of multi-drug resistance has resulted due to indiscriminate administration of high-doses of antibiotics followed by significant toxicity. In the face of this emergence of drug-resistant microbesthe efficacy of green nanoparticles might prove greatly beneficial. Microbial biofilm is another hurdle in the effective treatment of diseases as the microorganismsbeing embedded in the meshwork of the biofilmevade the antimicrobial agents. Nanoparticles may act as a ray of hope on the face of this challenge tooas they not only destroy the biofilms but also lessen the doses of antibiotics requiredwhen administered in combination with the nanoparticles. It should be further noted that the resistance mechanisms exhibited by the microorganisms seem not that relevant for nanoparticles. The current review, to the best of our knowledgefocuses on the structures of these green nanoparticles along with their biomedical potentials. It is interesting to note how a variety of structures are generated by using resources like microbes or plants or plant products and how the structure affects their activities. This study might pave the way for further development in this arena and future work may be taken up in identifying the detailed mechanism by which 'green' synthesis empowers nanoparticles to kill pathogenic microbes.

Abstract
Xanthomonas campestris pv.campestris (Xcc) is the causative agent of black rot, a disease that causes serious damage to plants from Brassicaceae family. However, there are no chemicals or biological agent commercially registered for the control of this disease. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial activity and chemical composition of Lippia gracilis essential oils (EOs) on Xcc aiming its use as effective biological control. We also investigated the effect of EOs on the integrity of the bacterial cytoplasmic membrane. Chemical analysis by GC/MS showed that the major compounds of the seven EOs of L. gracilis are thymol or carvacrol. The seven genotypes showed inhibition of bacterial growth with MIC from 700 μg.ml-1 to 1000 μg.ml-1, with the genotype LGRA-106 (rich in Thymol) with higher antimicrobial activity. The MIC for thymol and carvacrol were 250 μg.ml-1. After exposure to LGRA-106 EO (2×, 1×, 1/2×, 1/4×, and 1/8 x MIC for 5 min, it was observed a decreased cell viability and increased pI fluorescence, which indicates damage to the cytoplasmic cell membrane. This study demonstrates that L. gracilis EOs have antimicrobial activity and have a potential to be used in the control of black rot. Furthermore this antimicrobial activity is due, at least in part, to bacterial cytoplasmic membrane damage.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (NPAg) are silver metal particles that are less than 100 nm in size. NPAg has several advantages, one of which is as a catalyst in the process of photodegradation. NPAg was obtained by reducing AgNO3 using andaliman fruit water extract (Zanthoxylum acanthopodium DC.). This synthesis method is very effective because it is fast, non-toxic and environmentally friendly technology. This research aims to synthesize optimum NPAg and its application in the photodegradation process of Indigosol Blue in the form of volume, irradiation time, and optimum pH. NPAg synthesis was observed using a UV-VIS spectrophotometer while its size was observed using PSA (Particle Size Analyzer). The results showed the best NPAg synthesized using 1x10-3 M AgNO3 at 60°C with average NPAg size of 9.04 nm. NPAg which is formed is stable for ± 35 days. The optimum condition for the photodegradation process was achieved by using 2 mL NPAg 4 hour irradiation at pH 3. From the results of this study it can be concluded that NPAg can to reduce the concentration of Indigosol Blue dye by up to 94.75%.

Abstract
In this article, we have reported an environmentally benign and cost-effective method for the synthesis of monodispersed silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), based on Centella asiatica phenolic extracts (CAPE). The presence of phenolics was confirmed by ultra high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-qTOF-MS). Colloidal AgNPs synthesized under different concentrations of silver nitrate were monitored with a UV-vis spectrophotometer. Maximum absorption spectra intensity was found to range between 430–440 nm, during a synthesis time of 90 minutes at room temperature. The as-synthesized CAPE-AgNPs, was subjected to various instrumental characterizations such as, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS) and zeta potential. At the optimized synthesis conditions, spherical and monodispersed CAPE-AgNPs were obtained, with an absorption maximum at 430 nm. The crystalline CAPE-AgNPs had a face-centered-cubic (fcc) crystallographic structure, possessing average sizes estimated from TEM, to be between 20–25 nm diameter, a hydrodynamic diameter from DLS of about 90 nm and a zeta potential value of −28.7 mV. FTIR results validated the presence of phenolics on the surfaces of CAPE-AgNPs. The anti-microbial capacity of CAPE-AgNPs was further demonstrated on different pathogenic bacterial strains with satisfactory performances. As a result of the high surface area to volume ratio of CAPE-AgNPs, it was investigated as a catalyst towards the reduction of prominent environmental pollutants, 4 nitrophenol (4 NP), Congo red (CR) and methylene blue (MB). Pseudo first order kinetics were obtained with rate constants of 3.9 × 10−3 s−1 for 4 NP, 54.7 × 10−3 min−1 for MB and 5.6 × 10−3 s−1 for CR. The catalytic performance and antimicrobial activities of CAPE-AgNPs suggest its potential application in wastewater treatment and control of pathogenic microbes.

Abstract
The prospective uses of tree gum polysaccharides and their nanostructures in various aspects of food, water, energy, biotechnology, environment and medicine industries, have garnered a great deal of attention recently. In addition to extensive applications of tree gums in food, there are substantial non-food applications of these commercial gums, which have gained widespread attention due to their availability, structural diversity and remarkable properties as 'green' bio-based renewable materials. Tree gums are obtainable as natural polysaccharides from various tree genera possessing exceptional properties, including their renewable, biocompatible, biodegradable, and non-toxic nature and their ability to undergo easy chemical modifications. This review focuses on non-food applications of several important commercially available gums (arabic, karaya, tragacanth, ghatti and kondagogu) for the greener synthesis and stabilization of metal/metal oxide NPs, production of electrospun fibers, environmental bioremediation, bio-catalysis, biosensors, coordination complexes of metal-hydrogels, and for antimicrobial and biomedical applications. Furthermore, polysaccharides acquired from botanical, seaweed, animal, and microbial origins are briefly compared with the characteristics of tree gum exudates.

Abstract
In this study, the conversion of silver ions into ∼30.74 nm sized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was achieved in 30 min at a reaction temperature of 80-90°C in aqueous leaf extract of Artemisia afra. The synthesised AgNPs showed surface plasmon resonance in the range of 423-438 nm. Spherical and face-centred cubic nanoparticles were confirmed by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, respectively. Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) results indicated that the obtained nanoparticles were stabilised and capped through the carbonyl and carboxylate ion groups possibly from flavonoids, terpenoids, phenolics and esters content of the extracts. In addition, the AgNPs were assessed for their biological potentials against some microbes and, also, their free radical scavenging ability was established. The AgNPs exhibited interesting antimicrobial and antioxidant properties better than the aqueous extract of A. afra.
