Abstract
Introduction: The search for fast and efficient treatment for dermonecrotic lesions caused by the venom of the spider from the Loxosceles simillis, is a demand in health. Prednisolone is one of the most used drugs, however it has side effects. In this context, addictionally gold nanoparticles (GNPs) have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties. The use of photobiomodulation has show to be efficient in the process of tissue repair. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of photobiomodulation and GNPs associated or not with a low concentration of prednisolone in animal models of dermonecrotic lesion.Methodology: For this, rabbits with venon-induced dermonecrotic lesion were subjected to topical treatment with prednisolone + laser or GNPs + laser or Pred-GNPs + laser. The area of edema, necrosis and erythema were measured. On the last day of treatment, the animals were euthanized to remove the organs for histopathological and biochemical analysis.Results: All treatments combinations were effective in promoting the reduction of necrotic tissue and erythema.Conclusion: With this results, we suggest that the use of laser and nanoparticles, associated or not with prednisolone, should be considered for the treatment of dermonecrotic injury.

Abstract
This review discusses the eco-friendly and cost-effective biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in viable microorganisms, focusing on microbes-mediated AuNP biosynthesis. This process suits agricultural, environmental, and biomedical applications, offering renewable, eco-friendly, non-toxic, sustainable, and time-efficient methods. Microorganisms are increasingly used in green technology, nanotechnology, and RNAi technology, but several microorganisms have not been fully identified and characterized. Bio-nanotechnology offers eco-friendly and sustainable solutions for nanomedicine, with microbe-mediated nanoparticle biosynthesis producing AuNPs with anti-oxidation activity, stability, and biocompatibility. Ultrasmall AuNPs offer rapid distribution, renal clearance, and enhanced permeability in biomedical applications. The review explores nano-size dependent biosynthesis of AuNPs by bacteria, fungi, and viruses revealing their non-toxic, non-genotoxic, and non-oxidative properties on human cells. AuNPs with varying sizes and shapes, from nitrate reductase enzymes, have shown potential as a promising nano-catalyst. The synthesized AuNPs, with negative charge capping molecules, have demonstrated antibacterial activity against drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii strains, and were non-toxic to Vero cell lines, indicating potential antibiotic resistance treatments. A green chemical method for the biosynthesis of AuNPs using reducing chloroauric acid and Rhizopus oryzae protein extract has been described, demonstrating excellent stability and strong catalytic activity. AuNPs are eco-friendly, non-toxic, and time-efficient, making them ideal for biomedical applications due to their antioxidant, antidiabetic, and antibacterial properties. In addition to the biomedical application, the review also highlights the role of microbially synthesized AuNPs in sustainable management of plant diseases, and environmental bioremediation.

Abstract
Polysaccharide-based gold nanomaterials have attracted great interest in biomedical fields such as cancer therapy and immunomodulation due to their prolonged residence time in vivo and enhanced immune response. This review aims to provide an up-to-date and comprehensive summary of polysaccharide-based Au NMs synthesis, including mechanisms, polysaccharide structure-effects, and anticancer activity. Firstly, research progress on the synthesis mechanism of polysaccharide-based Au NMs was addressed, which included three types based on the variety of polysaccharides and reaction environment: breaking of glycosidic bonds via Au (III) or base-mediated production of highly reduced intermediates, reduction of free hydroxyl groups in polysaccharide molecules, and reduction of free amino groups in polysaccharide molecules. Then, the potential effects of polysaccharide structure characteristics (molecular weight, composition of monosaccharides, functional groups, glycosidic bonds, and chain conformation) and reaction conditions (the reaction temperature, reaction time, pH, concentration of gold precursor and polysaccharides) on the size and shape of Au NMs were explored. Finally, the current status of polysaccharide-based Au NMs cancer therapy was summarized before reaching our conclusions and perspectives.

Abstract
Here, a simple, one step, lucrative and green synthesis of Cassia fistula leaf extract inspired antibacterial silver nanoparticles (CF-SNPs) was provided. Characterization of these CF-SNPs were achieved by using various spectroscopic techniques for instance Ultraviolet Visible (UV-Vis) Spectroscopy, Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy, Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX). The effective antibacterial action of the CF-SNPs was checked against Escherichia coli (E. Coli) DH5-Alpha where MIC was 1.6 nM. Anticancer dynamism of the CF-SNPs was also tested in opposition to skin melanoma, A375 cell lines in which 4.4 nM was IC50. The binding proneness of HSA towards CF-SNPs was investigated by means of UV-Vis Spectroscopy, Fluorescence Spectroscopy, Time Resolved Fluorescence Spectroscopy, Circular Dichroism (CD) Spectroscopy, Dynamic Light Scattering, and Isothermal Titration Colorimetry (ITC). CD spectroscopy established minor secondary structural exchange of HSA in HSA-CF-SNPs complex. ITC and Time Resolved Fluorescence Spectroscopy verified the static type quenching mechanism involved in HSA-CF-SNPs complex. The binding constant was 3.45 × 108 M-1 at 298.15K from ITC study. The thermodynamic parameters showed that the interaction was occurred spontaneously by the hydrophilic forces and hydrogen bonding.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Drug-Delivery Silver Nanoparticles: A New Perspective for Phenindione as an Anticoagulant. Biomedicines 2023; 11:2201. [PMID: 37626698 PMCID: PMC10452578 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11082201] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Revised: 07/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/31/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Anticoagulants prevent the blood from developing the coagulation process, which is the primary cause of death in thromboembolic illnesses. Phenindione (PID) is a well-known anticoagulant that is rarely employed because it totally prevents coagulation, which can be a life-threatening complication. The goal of the current study is to synthesize drug-loaded Ag NPs to slow down the coagulation process. Methods: A rapid synthesis and stabilization of silver nanoparticles as drug-delivery systems for phenindione (PID) were applied for the first time. Results: Several methods are used to determine the size of the resulting Ag NPs. Additionally, the drug-release capabilities of Ag NPs were established. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed for the first time to indicate the nature of the interaction between PID and nanostructures. DFT findings supported that galactose-loaded nanostructure could be a proper delivery system for phenindione. The drug-loaded Ag NPs were characterized in vitro for their antimicrobial, cytotoxic, and anticoagulant activities, and ex vivo for spasmolytic activity. The obtained data confirmed the drug-release experiments. Drug-loaded Ag NPs showed that prothrombin time (PT, sec) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT, sec) are approximately 1.5 times longer than the normal values, while PID itself stopped coagulation at all. This can make the PID-loaded Ag NPs better therapeutic anticoagulants. PID was compared to PID-loaded Ag NPs in antimicrobial, spasmolytic activity, and cytotoxicity. All the experiments confirmed the drug-release results.

Abstract
We developed a very simple, efficient and environment-friendly synthesis method for the manufacturing of high-performance chitosan-capped gold nanoparticles that could be used for biosensing applications. Gold nanoparticles were prepared through the spontaneous reduction of chloroauric acid by chitosan, which was used as both a reducing and a stabilizing agent. The samples were heated to a temperature of 60 °C under ultrasonic conditions. The composite system made of chitosan as a matrix and gold nanoparticles demonstrated a high stability in an aqueous buffer solution. The nanoparticles displayed an enhancement in photonic performance compared with the same property of individual components as a result of surface plasmon resonance at the interface between the structural phases of the hybrid structure. The enhanced photonic reactivity of the hybrid nanostructure may offer new insights for future possible biosensing applications.

Abstract
Nutrient fertilization plays a major role in improving crop productivity and maintaining soil fertility. In the last few decades, the productivity of current agricultural practices highly depends on the use of chemical fertilizers. Major drawback of traditional fertilizers is their low crop nutrient use efficiency and high loss into water. Nanomaterial in agriculture is a multipurpose tool for increasing growth, development, and yield of plants. Nanotechnology facilitates the amplifying of agriculture production by reducing relevant losses and improving the input efficiency. Nanotechnology has emerged as an attractive field of research and has various agriculture applications, especially the use of nano-agrochemicals to increase nutrient use efficiency and agricultural yield. Nanofertilizers are more effective as compared to chemical fertilizers due to their cost-efficient, eco-friendly, non-toxic, and more stable in nature. Overall, this chapter focuses on synthesis of nanofertilizers through physical, chemical, and biological methods. This chapter will also explore the use of nano-enabled fertilizers to enhance the nutrient use efficiency for sustainable crop production, and global food safety.

Abstract
Nanotechnology-based nanomedicine offers several benefits over conventional forms of therapeutic agents. Moreover, nanomedicine has become a potential candidate for targeting therapeutic agents at specific sites. However, nanomedicine prepared by synthetic methods may produce unwanted toxic effects. Due to their nanosize range, nanoparticles can easily reach the reticuloendothelial system and may produce unwanted systemic effects. The nanoparticles produced by the green chemistry approach would enhance the safety profile by avoiding synthetic agents and solvents in its preparations. This review encompasses toxicity consideration of nanoparticles, green synthesis techniques of nanoparticle preparation, biomedical application of nanoparticles, and future prospects.

Abstract
The phytocomponent conjugated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been extensively explored for various therapeutic applications such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic and anticoagulant effects. The bio-conjugation of Ag-based nanomaterial with plant extracts reduces their toxicity to biological systems and enhances their therapeutic effectiveness. The diversity of phytochemicals or capping agents provided by the plant extracts and the small size and large surface area of AgNPs permits maximum adsorption of these capping agents onto their surfaces that further promote the therapeutic performance of phytoconjugated AgNPs in various biomedical applications. The mechanistic action involved in antimicrobial and anticancer functions of AgNPs is mainly dependent on the induction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) resulting in cellular apoptosis and necrosis. This review summarizes the recent studies of various plant extract assisted synthesis of AgNPs, potential biomedical applications with the possible mechanism of action and major shortcomings affecting their therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Highly stable gold and silver nanoparticles were synthesized by use of an arabinoglucan from Lallemantia royleana seeds without additional use of reducing or stabilizing agents. The mechanism involved the reduction potential of the hemicellulose as verified by cyclic voltammetry. The arabinoglucan used was substantially free from ferulic acid and phenolic content, suggesting the inherent reducing potential of arabinoglucan for gold and silver ions. The synthesized nanoparticles exhibited surface plasmon resonance maxima at 515 nm (gold) and 397 nm (silver) corresponding to sizes of 10 nm and 8 nm, respectively. The zeta potential values were -24.1 mV (gold) and -22.3 mV (silver). The silver nanoparticles showed potential for application in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy. Gold nanoparticles were found to be non-toxic, whereas silver nanoparticles exhibited dose-dependent biological activities and found to be cytotoxic against brine shrimps and HeLa cell lines and the tumours caused by A. tumefaciens.

Abstract
The application of hazardous chemicals during nanoparticle (NP) synthesis has raised alarming concerns pertaining to their biocompatibility and equally to the environmental harmlessness. In the recent decade, nanotechnological research has made a gigantic shift in order to include the natural resources to produce biogenic NPs. Within this approach, researchers have utilized marine resources such as macroalgae and microalgae, land plants, bacteria, fungi, yeast, actinomycetes, and viruses to synthesize NPs. Marine macroalgae (brown, red, and green) are rich in polysaccharides including alginates, fucose-containing sulfated polysaccharides (FCSPs), galactans, agars or carrageenans, semicrystalline cellulose, ulvans, and hemicelluloses. Phytochemicals are abundant in phenols, tannins, alkaloids, terpenoids, and vitamins. However, microorganisms have an abundance of active compounds ranging from sugar molecules, enzymes, canonical membrane proteins, reductase enzymes (NADH and NADPH), membrane proteins to many more. The prime reason for using the aforesaid entities in the metallic NPs synthesis is based on their intrinsic properties to act as bioreductants, having the capability to reduce and cap the metal ions into stabilized NPs. Several green NPs have been verified for their biocompatibility in human cells. Bioactive constituents from the above resources have been found on the green metallic NPs, which has demonstrated their efficacies as prospective antibiotics and anti-cancer agents against a range of human pathogens and cancer cells. Moreover, these NPs can be characterized for the size, shapes, functional groups, surface properties, porosity, hydrodynamic stability, and surface charge using different characterization techniques. The novelty and originality of this review is that we provide recent research compilations on green synthesis of NPs by marine macroalgae and other biological sources (plant, bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, yeast, and virus). Besides, we elaborated on the detailed intra- and extracellular mechanisms of NPs synthesis by marine macroalgae. The application of green NPs as anti-bacterial, anti-cancer, and popular methods of NPs characterization techniques has also been critically reviewed.

Anticancer Potential of Green Synthesized Silver Nanoparticles of the Soft Coral Cladiella pachyclados Supported by Network Pharmacology and In Silico Analyses. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:1846. [PMID: 34834261 PMCID: PMC8621232 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13111846] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2021] [Revised: 10/24/2021] [Accepted: 10/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Cladiella-derived natural products have shown promising anticancer properties against many human cancer cell lines. In the present investigation, we found that an ethyl acetate extract of Cladiella pachyclados (CE) collected from the Red Sea could inhibit the human breast cancer (BC) cells (MCF and MDA-MB-231) in vitro (IC50 24.32 ± 1.1 and 9.55 ± 0.19 µg/mL, respectively). The subsequent incorporation of the Cladiella extract into the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) resulted in significantly more activity against both cancer cell lines (IC50 5.62 ± 0.89 and 1.72 ± 0.36, respectively); the efficacy was comparable to that of doxorubicin with much-enhanced selectivity. To explore the mode of action of this extract, various in silico and network-pharmacology-based analyses were performed in the light of the LC-HRESIMS-identified compounds in the CE extract. Firstly, using two independent machine-learning-based prediction software platforms, most of the identified compounds in CE were predicted to inhibit both MCF7 and MDA-MB-231. Moreover, they were predicted to have low toxicity towards normal cell lines. Secondly, approximately 242 BC-related molecular targets were collected from various databases and used to construct a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, which revealed the most important molecular targets and signaling pathways in the pathogenesis of BC. All the identified compounds in the extract were then subjected to inverse docking against all proteins hosted in the Protein Data bank (PDB) to discover the BC-related proteins that these compounds can target. Approximately, 10.74% of the collected BC-related proteins were potential targets for 70% of the compounds identified in CE. Further validation of the docking results using molecular dynamic simulations (MDS) and binding free energy calculations revealed that only 2.47% of the collected BC-related proteins could be targeted by 30% of the CE-derived compounds. According to docking and MDS experiments, protein-pathway and compound-protein interaction networks were constructed to determine the signaling pathways that the CE compounds could influence. This paper highlights the potential of marine natural products as effective anticancer agents and reports the discovery of novel anti-breast cancer AgNPs.

Abstract
Glial-cell-line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a protein that has therapeutic potential in the treatment of Parkinson's disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. The activity of GDNF is highly dependent on the interaction with sulfated glycans which bind at the N-terminus consisting of 19 residues. Herein, we studied the influence of different glycosaminoglycan (i.e., glycan; GAG) molecules on the conformation of a GDNF-derived peptide (GAG binding motif, sixteen amino acid residues at the N-terminus) using both experimental and theoretical studies. The GAG molecules employed in this study are heparin, heparan sulfate, hyaluronic acid, and sulfated hyaluronic acid. Circular dichroism spectroscopy was employed to detect conformational changes induced by the GAG molecules; molecular dynamics simulation studies were performed to support the experimental results. Our results revealed that the sulfated GAG molecules bind strongly with GDNF peptide and induce alpha-helical structure in the peptide to some extent.

Abstract
Nowadays, water-borne diseases including hepatitis remain the critical health challenge due to the inadequate supply of potable and safe water for human activities. The major cause is that the pathogenic microorganisms causing diseases have developed resistance against common techniques used by sewage water treatment plants for water disinfection. Therefore, there is a need to improve these conventional water treatment techniques by taking into consideration the application of nanotechnology for wastewater purification. The main aim of this paper is to provide a review on the synthesis of biopolymer-inorganic nanoparticle composites (BINCs), their used as antimicrobial compounds for water disinfection, as well as to elaborate on their antimicrobial mechanism of action. The microbial properties affecting the activity of antimicrobial compounds are also evaluated.

Abstract
Nanomaterials have significantly contributed in the field of nanomedicine as this subject matter has combined the usefulness of natural macromolecules with organic and inorganic nanomaterials. In this respect, various types of nanocomposites are increasingly being explored in order to discover an effective approach in controlling high morbidity and mortality rate that had triggered by the evolution and emergence of multidrug resistant microorganisms. Current research is focused towards the production of biogenic silver nanoparticles for the fabrication of antimicrobial metallic-polymer-based non-cytotoxic nanocomposite system. An ecofriendly approach was adapted for the production of silver nanoparticles using fungal biomass (Aspergillus fumigatus KIBGE-IB33). The biologically synthesized nanoparticles were further layered with a biodegradable macromolecule (chitosan) to improve and augment the properties of the developed nanocomposite system. Both nanostructures were characterized using different spectrographic analyses including UV–visible and scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, dynamic light scattering, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic technique. The biologically mediated approach adapted in this study resulted in the formation of highly dispersed silver nanoparticles that exhibited an average nano size and zeta potential value of 05 nm (77.0%) and − 22.1 mV, respectively with a polydispersity index of 0.4. Correspondingly, fabricated silver–chitosan nanocomposites revealed a size of 941 nm with a zeta potential and polydispersity index of + 63.2 mV and 0.57, respectively. The successful capping of chitosan on silver nanoparticles prevented the agglomeration of nanomaterial and also facilitated the stabilization of the nano system. Both nanoscopic entities exhibited antimicrobial potential against some pathogenic bacterial species but did not displayed any antifungal activity. The lowest minimal inhibitory concentration of nanocomposite system (1.56 µg ml−1) was noticed against Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212. Fractional inhibitory concentration index of the developed nanocomposite system confirmed its improved synergistic behavior against various bacterial species with no cytotoxic effect on NIH/3T3 cell lines. Both nanostructures, developed in the present study, could be utilized in the form of nanomedicines or nanocarrier system after some quantifiable trials as both of them are nonhazardous and have substantial antibacterial properties.

Abstract
Synthesis and characterization of nanoparticles with different morphologies coupled to minimal chemical interventions for sustainable applications is one of the contemporary topics in the field of nanotechnology. In the current study, heparinized silver nanoparticles were synthesized using a chemical reduction method. Different concentrations of heparin were used to investigate its role in the stability and morphological properties of silver nanoparticles. Interestingly, it has been observed that the concentration of the stabilizing agent heparin plays a pivotal role in dictating the size and shape of the nanosilver. As visualized under a transmission electron microscope, nanosilver with different morphological states such as triangles, truncated triangles, hexagon, and spheres has been experimentally trapped. Such modular property of heparin coated nanosilver has also exhibited substantial differences in their anticoagulation and antimicrobial activities.

Chitosan nanocomposites for water treatment by fixed-bed continuous flow column adsorption: A review. Carbohydr Polym 2021; 255:117398. [PMID: 33436226 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2020.117398] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2020] [Revised: 10/30/2020] [Accepted: 11/07/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Nowadays, access to clean water sources worldwide and particularly in Southern Africa is inadequate because of its pollution by organic, inorganic, and microorganism contaminants. A range of conventional water treatment techniques has been used to resolve the problem. However, these methods are currently facing the confronts posed by new emerging contaminants. Therefore, there is a need to develop simple and lower cost-effective water purification methods that use recyclable bio-based natural polymers such as chitosan modified with nanomaterials. These novel functional chitosan-based nanomaterials have been proven to effectively eliminate the different environmental pollutants from wastewater to acceptable levels. This paper aims to present a review of the recent development of functional chitosan modified with carbon nanostructured and inorganic nanoparticles. Their application as biosorbents in fixed-bed continuous flow column adsorption for water purification is also discussed.

Abstract
In the present work, silver nanoparticles were prepared by using the extract of Camellia Sinensis. The extract contains phytochemicals which are mainly polyphenols acting as the natural reducing and stabilizing agents leading to the formation of uniformly dispersed and stabilized silver nanoparticles. The synthesis of silver nanoparticles was significantly influenced by the impact of the pH, as well as temperature conditions. It was found that at pH 5 and 25 °C, nanoparticles of different morphologies (spherical, polygonal, capsule) and sizes were formed. However, with the increase in temperature from 25 °C to 65 °C but at the same pH, these particles started attaining the spherical shape of different sizes owing to an increase in the reduction rate. Furthermore, for the reaction of the mixture at 65 °C, an increase in pH from 5 to 11 led to an increase in the monodispersity of spherically shaped nanoparticles, attributed to the hydroxide ions facilitated reduction. The prepared nanoparticles were investigated for their antibacterial activity using Nathan's Agar Well-Diffusion method. It was found that AgNPs prepared at pH 9 and 65 °C demonstrated strong antibacterial activity against gram-negative Escherichia coli in contrast to gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus. In reference to the cytotoxic potency, the prepared AgNPs showed clear cytotoxicity for HeLa cells and showcased a close relationship between activity and concentration as evidenced by the decrease in the percentage (100 to 30%) of metabolically active cells up to 25 µM-75 µM concentration of silver nanoparticles.

Abstract
The positive contrast of extremely small iron oxide nanoparticles (ESIONP) in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) rejuvenates this class of metal nanoparticles (NP).Yet, the current synthesis often lacks the possibility of adjusting the core size (while it is a key element for ESIONP-based MRI contrast behaviour), and also involved multiple complex steps before obtaining a ready-to-use probe for medical applications. In this study, we faced these challenges by applying heparin oligosaccharides (HO) of different lengths as coatings for the preparation of HEP-ESIONP with a one-pot microwave method. We demonstrated that the HO length could control the core size during the synthesis to achieve optimal positive MRI contrast, and that HEP-ESIONP were endowed directly with anticoagulant properties and/or a specific antitumor activity, according to the HO used. Relevantly, positron emission tomography (PET)-based in vivo biodistribution study conducted with 68Ga core-doped HEP-ESIONP analogues revealed significant changes in the probe behaviours, the shortening of HO promoting a shift from hepatic to renal clearance. The different conformations of HO coatings and a thorough in vitro characterisation of the probes' protein coronas provided insight into this crucial impact of HO length on opsonization-mediated immune response and elimination. Overall, we were able to identify a precise HO length to get an ESIONP probe showing prolonged vascular lifetime and moderate accumulation in a tumor xenograft, balanced with a low uptake by non-specific organs and favourable urinary clearance. This probe met all prerequisites for advanced theranostic medical applications with a dual MRI/PET hot spot capability and potential antitumor activity.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious disease that has affected mankind. The anti-TB treatment has been used from ancient times to control symptoms of this disease but these medications produced some serious side effects. Herbal products have been successfully used for the treatment of TB. Gold is the most biocompatible metal among all available for biomedical purposes so Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) have sought attention as an attractive biosynthesized drug to be studied in recent years for bioscience research. GNPs are used as better catalysts and due to unique small size, physical resemblance to physiological molecules, biocompatibility and non-cytotoxicity extensively used for various applications including drug and gene delivery. Greenly synthesized GNPs have much more potential in different fields because phytoconstituents used in GNP synthesis itself act as reducing and capping agents and produced more stabilized GNPs. This review is devoted to a discussion on GNPs synthesis with herbs for TB. The main focus is on the role of the natural plant bio-molecules involved in the bioreduction of metal salts during the GNPs synthesis with phytoconstituents used as antitubercular agents.

Abstract
Nanoparticle synthesis using microorganisms and plants by green synthesis technology is biologically safe, cost-effective, and environment-friendly. Plants and microorganisms have established the power to devour and accumulate inorganic metal ions from their neighboring niche. The biological entities are known to synthesize nanoparticles both extra and intracellularly. The capability of a living system to utilize its intrinsic organic chemistry processes in remodeling inorganic metal ions into nanoparticles has opened up an undiscovered area of biochemical analysis. Nanotechnology in conjunction with biology gives rise to an advanced area of nanobiotechnology that involves living entities of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic origin, such as algae, cyanobacteria, actinomycetes, bacteria, viruses, yeasts, fungi, and plants. Every biological system varies in its capabilities to supply metallic nanoparticles. However, not all biological organisms can produce nanoparticles due to their enzymatic activities and intrinsic metabolic processes. Therefore, biological entities or their extracts are used for the green synthesis of metallic nanoparticles through bio-reduction of metallic particles leading to the synthesis of nanoparticles. These biosynthesized metallic nanoparticles have a range of unlimited pharmaceutical applications including delivery of drugs or genes, detection of pathogens or proteins, and tissue engineering. The effective delivery of drugs and tissue engineering through the use of nanotechnology exhibited vital contributions in translational research related to the pharmaceutical products and their applications. Collectively, this review covers the green synthesis of nanoparticles by using various biological systems as well as their applications.

Abstract
In recent days, the green synthesized nanomagnetic biocomposites have been evolved with tremendous potential as the future catalysts. This has encouraged us to design and synthesis of a novel Au NPs immobilized pectin modified magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4/Pectin/Au). It was meticulously characterized using advanced analytical techniques like FT-IR, FESEM, TEM, EDX, XPS, VSM, XRD and ICP-OES. We investigated the chemical applications of the material in the catalytic reduction of nitroarenes using N2H4.H2O as the reducing agent in the EtOH/H2O solvent without any promoters or ligands. Due to strong paramagnetism, the catalyst was easily recovered and reused in 11 cycles without considerable leaching or loss in reactivity. The green protocol involves several advantages like mild conditions, easy workup, high yields, and reusability of the catalyst. Furthermore, the desired nanocomposite was employed in biological studies like anti-oxidant assay by DPPH radical scavenging test. Subsequently, on exhibiting a good IC50 value in the DPPH assay, we extended the bio-application of the Fe3O4/Pectin/Au in the anticancer study of adenocarcinoma cells of human lungs using three cancer cell lines, PC-14, LC-2/ad and HLC-1 and a normal cell line HUVEC. The best result was accomplished in PC-14 cell lines with the lowest IC50 values.

Abstract
In the present investigation, the characterization of Cassia fistula leaf extracts (CFLE) mediated gold nanoparticles (CF-GNPs) and its binding features with human serum albumin (HSA) through interaction have been probed. The results from UV-visible, TEM and EDX analysis proved the formation of CF-GNPs. The functional groups like OH, NH, CN etc present in the phytochemicals of CFLE were mainly acted as reducing and protecting agent which was confirmed by FTIR study. The zeta potential (-17.8 mV) and hydrodynamic size (20.4 nm) of the CF-GNPs were also measured by DLS. The microbicidal effect of the CF-GNPs was estimated against gram negative bacterium, Escherichia coli (DH5-Alpha) and MIC was found to be 2.8 nM. Anticancer activity of the CF-GNPs was also checked against A375 (skin melanoma) cell lines where IC50 was 6.5 nM. The interaction study of CF-GNPs with HSA and conformational alteration of HSA upon interaction were investigated by the fluorescence, lifetime, synchronous, circular dichroism spectrum and zeta potential measurement. The negative value of Gibb's free energy indicated spontaneity of the CF-GNPs-HSA complex formation. The fluorescence lifetime measurement confirmed the construction of ground state CF-GNPs-HSA complex passing through static quenching mechanism and determined the distance from donor to acceptor also. Circular dichroism spectroscopy signified unchangeable native structure of HSA with minor decrease of alpha helix structure (54.5% to 51.1%) upon interaction. The more negative zeta potential value (-25.9 mV) of CF-GNPs-HSA system than the CF-GNPs (-17.8 mV) proved the adsorption of HSA on the outer surface of CF-GNPs.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Heparin-based silver nanoparticles (AgHep-NPs) and gold nanoparticles (AuHep-NPs) were produced by a photochemical method using silver nitrate and chloroauric acid as metal precursors and UV light at 254 nm. UV-Vis spectroscopy graphs showed absorption for AgHep-NPs and AuHep-NPs at 420 nm and 530 nm, respectively. TEM revealed a pseudospherical morphology and a small size, corresponding to 10-25 nm for AgHep-NPs and 1.5-7.5 nm for AuHep-NPs. Their antifungal activity against Candida albicans, Issatchenkia orientalis (Candida krusei), and Candida parapsilosis was assessed by the microdilution method. We show that AgHep-NPs were effective in decreasing fungus density, whereas AuHep-NPs were not. Additionally, the viability of human gingival fibroblasts was preserved by both nanoparticle types at a level above 80%, indicating a slight cytotoxicity. These results are potentially useful for applications of the described NPs mainly in dentistry and, to a lesser extent, in other biomedical areas.

Abstract
In this paper we report on the influence of polysaccharides' molecular structure on the antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity of composites based on silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) immobilized into carboxymethyl-cellulose (CMC). These composites were green synthesized from the reduction of silver ions into aqueous solutions of the polysaccharide, using CMC with different degree of substitution (DS) and molecular weight (Mw). The composites were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), as well as infrared (ATR-FTIR), ultraviolet (UV-Vis), Raman, and X-ray photo-electron (XPS) spectroscopic techniques. The antibacterial activity was evaluated with minimum inhibitory concentration against Enterococcus faecalis. The cytotoxicity of composites was assessed against human gingival fibroblast. Experimental evidence suggests that particle size distribution and morphology of AgNPs change according to the quantity of silver precursor added to the reaction, as well as the DS and Mw of CMC used for composites preparation. This is related to the dispersion of silver precursor into aqueous solutions of the polysaccharide and the formation of Ag-O coordination bonds among AgNPs and COO- moieties of CMC. Moreover, these coordination bonds modify the ability of nanoparticles to produce and release Ag+ into aqueous dispersion, adjusting their antibacterial activity and the induction of cytotoxicity into the tested biological environments.

Abstract
Over the last decades there has been a tremendous volume of research efforts focused on engineering silver-based (nano)materials. The interest in silver has been mostly driven by the element capacity to kill pathogenic bacteria. In this context, the main area of application has been medical devices that are at significant risk of becoming colonized by bacteria and subsequently infected. However, silver nanomaterials have been incorporated in a number of other commercial products which may or may not benefit from antibacterial protection. The rapid expansion of such products raises important questions about a possible adverse influence on human health.

Abstract
Gold-based nanostructures with tunable wavelength of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in the second near-infrared (NIR-II) biowindow receive increasing attention in phototheranostics. In view of limited progress on NIR-II gold nanostructures, a particular liposome template-guided route is explored to synthesize novel gold nanoframeworks (AuNFs) with large mesopores (≈40 nm) for multimodal imaging along with therapeutic robustness. The synthesized AuNFs exhibit strong absorbance in NIR-II region, affording their capacity of NIR-II photothermal therapy (PTT) and photoacoustic (PA) imaging for deep tumors. Functionalization of AuNFs with hyaluronic acid (HA) endows the targeting capacity for CD44-overexpressed tumor cells while gatekeeping doxorubicin (DOX) loaded into mesopores. Conjugation of Raman reporter 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) onto AuNFs yields a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) fingerprint for Raman spectroscopy/imaging. In vivo evaluation of HA-4-ATP-AuNFs-DOX on tumor-bearing xenografts demonstrates its high efficacy in eradication of solid tumors in NIR-II under PA-Raman dual image-guided photo-chemotherapy. Thus, current AuNFs offer versatile capabilities for phototheranostics.

Abstract
Polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs), composed of natural and biodegradable polymers, (such as positively charged chitosan or protamine and negatively charged glycosaminoglycans (GAGs)) have attracted attention as hydrogels, films, hydrocolloids, and nano-/micro-particles (N/MPs) for biomedical applications. This is due to their biocompatibility and biological activities. These PECs have been used as drug and cell delivery carriers, hemostats, wound dressings, tissue adhesives, and scaffolds for tissue engineering. In addition to their comprehensive review, this review describes our original studies and provides an overview of the characteristics of chitosan-based hydrogel, including photo-cross-linkable chitosan hydrogel and hydrocolloidal PECs, as well as molecular-weight heparin (LH)/positively charged protamine (P) N/MPs. These are generated by electrostatic interactions between negatively charged LH and positively charged P together with their potential biomedical applications.

Abstract
Biologically mediated inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) are considered as a green, cheap, and environmental-friendly materials, which connect the nanotechnology and biomedical sciences. Metallic NPs such as gold and silver NPs, synthesized using natural materials are an important branch of inorganic NPs with catalytic functionalities and a diverse range of biomedical applications such as antimicrobial application. Polysaccharides are excellent candidates to stabilize and control the size of NPs during the synthesis process. These polymers possess multiple binding sites, which facilitate attachment to the metal surface. As a result, polysaccharides can effectively create an organic-inorganic network of the metal NPs and confer a significant protection against aggregation and chemical modifications. This chapter discusses the methods of the preparation of polysaccharide-mediated NPs and reviews various types and diverse applications for these novel materials.

Abstract
Antimicrobial study of biofunctionalized silver nanoparticles has been done with the emphasis on its mechanism on both gram positive and negative bacteria. The biofunctionalized silver nanoparticles are employed considering their importance in green chemistry with respect to easy synthesis, usefulness, and economic synthetic procedure involved. The stability of these nanoparticles was determined by zeta potential analyzer. The probable mechanism of antibacterial activity was performed on Proteus mirabilis by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDAX) study which does not show the presence of silver. The free radicals generated by silver nanoparticles were responsible for lethal antibacterial activity by rupturing the cell surface which causes improper nutrient and signal supply. Free radical scavenging efficacy of silver nanoparticles was confirmed by 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. AgNP enhanced the membrane leakage of reducing sugars by destroying the proteins existing on the cell wall. These nanoparticles are found to be toxic against human pathogens and are highly effective on Staphylococcus aureus. The effect of silver nanoparticles is concentration dependent and independent of the type of strains used.

Abstract
In this feature article we discuss the particular relevance of glycans as components or targets of functionalized nanoparticles (NPs) for potential applications in personalized medicine but we will not enter into descriptions for their preparation. For a more general view covering the preparation and applications of glyconanomaterials the reader is referred to a number of recent reviews. The combination of glyco- and nanotechnology is already providing promising new tools for more personalized solutions to diagnostics and therapy. Current applications relevant to personalized medicine include drug targeting, localized radiation therapy, imaging of glycan expression of cancer cells, point of care diagnostics, cancer vaccines, photodynamic therapy, biosensors, and glycoproteomics.
