Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance arises over time, usually due to genetic modifications. Global observations of high resistance rates to popular antibiotics used to treat common bacterial diseases, such as diarrhea, STIs, sepsis, and urinary tract infections, indicate that our supply of effective antibiotics is running low. The mechanisms of action of several antibiotic groups are covered in this review. Antimicrobials disrupt the development and metabolism of bacteria, leading to their eventual death. However, in recent years, microorganisms become resistant to the drugs. Bacteria encode resistant genes against antibiotics and inhibit the function of antibiotics by reducing the uptake of drugs, modifying the enzyme's active site, synthesizing enzymes to degrade antibiotics, and changing the structure of ribosomal subunits. Additionally, the methods of action of resistant bacteria against different kinds of antibiotics as well as their modes of action are discussed. Besides, the resistant pathogenic bacteria which get the most priority by World Health Organisation (WHO) for synthesizing new drugs, have also been incorporated. To overcome antimicrobial resistance, nanomaterials are used to increase the efficacy of antimicrobial drugs. Metallic, inorganic, and polymer-based nanoparticles once conjugated with antibacterial drugs, exhibit synergistic effects by increasing the efficacy of the drugs by inhibiting bacterial growth. Nanomaterial's toxic properties are proportional to their concentrations. Higher concentration nanomaterials are more toxic to the cells. In this review, the toxic properties of nanomaterials on lung cells, lymph nodes, and neuronal cells are also summarized.

Abstract
Through the innovative use of surface-displayed horseradish peroxidase, this work explores the enzymatic catalysis of both bioRAFT polymerization and bioATRP to prompt polymer synthesis on the surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells, with bioATRP outperforming bioRAFT polymerization. The resulting surface modification of living yeast cells with synthetic polymers allows for a significant change in yeast phenotype, including growth profile, aggregation characteristics, and conjugation of non-native enzymes to the clickable polymers on the cell surface, opening new avenues in bioorthogonal cell-surface engineering.

Abstract
Synthesis of silver nanoparticles using extracts from plants is an advantageous technological alternative to the traditional colloidal synthesis due to its simplicity, low cost, and the inclusion of environmentally friendly processes to obtain a new generation of antimicrobial compounds. The work describes the production of silver and iron nanoparticles using sphagnum extract as well as traditional synthesis. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) and laser doppler velocimetry methods, UV-visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) combined with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), dark-field hyperspectral microscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) were used to study the structure and properties of synthesized nanoparticles. Our studies demonstrated a high antibacterial activity of the obtained nanoparticles, including the formation of biofilms. Nanoparticles synthesized using sphagnum moss extracts likely have high potential for further research.

Abstract
Infections are the primary cause of death from burns and diabetic wounds. The clinical difficulty of treating wound infections with conventional antibiotics has progressively increased and reached a critical level, necessitating a paradigm change for enhanced chronic wound care. The most prevalent bacterium linked with these infections is Staphylococcus aureus, and the advent of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus has posed a substantial therapeutic challenge. Most existing wound dressings are ineffective and suffer from constraints such as insufficient antibacterial activity, toxicity, failure to supply enough moisture to the wound, and poor mechanical performance. Using ineffective wound dressings might prolong the healing process of a wound. To meet this requirement, nanoscale scaffolds with their desirable qualities, which include the potential to distribute bioactive agents, a large surface area, enhanced mechanical capabilities, the ability to imitate the extracellular matrix (ECM), and high porosity, have attracted considerable interest. The incorporation of nanoparticles into nanofiber scaffolds constitutes a novel approach to “nanoparticle dressing” that has acquired significant popularity for wound healing. Due to their remarkable antibacterial capabilities, silver nanoparticles are attractive materials for wound healing. This review focuses on the therapeutic applications of nanofiber wound dressings containing Ag-NPs and their potential to revolutionize wound healing.

Abstract
Wounds are structural and functional disruptions of skin that occur because of trauma, surgery, acute illness, or chronic disease conditions. Chronic wounds are caused by a breakdown in the finely coordinated cascade of events that occurs during healing. Wound healing is a long process that split into at least three continuous and overlapping processes: an inflammatory response, a proliferative phase, and finally the tissue remodeling. Therefore, these processes are extensively studied to develop novel therapeutics in order to achieve maximum recovery with minimum scarring. Several growth hormones and cytokines secreted at the site of lesions tightly regulates the healing processes. The traditional approach for wound management has been represented by topical treatments. Metal nanoparticles (e.g., silver, gold and zinc) are increasingly being employed in dermatology due to their favorable effects on healing, as well as in treating and preventing secondary bacterial infections. In the current review, a brief introduction on traditional would healing approach is provided, followed by focus on the potential of wound dressing therapeutic techniques functionalized with Ag-NPs.

Abstract
The development of antimicrobial polymers is a priority for engineers fighting microbial resistant strains. Silver ions and silver nanoparticles can assist in enhancing the antimicrobial properties of microcapsules that release such substances in time which prolongs the efficiency of antimicrobial effects. Therefore, this study aimed to functionalize different polymer surfaces with antimicrobial core/shell microcapsules. Microcapsules were made of sodium alginate in shell and filled with antimicrobial silver in their core prior to application on the surface of polymer materials by dip-coating methodology. Characterization of polymers after functionalization was performed by several spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. After the characterization of polymers before and after the functionalization, the release of the active substances was monitored in time. The obtained test results can help with the calculation on the minimal concentration of antimicrobial silver that is encapsulated to achieve the desired amounts of release over time.

Abstract
Metal nanoparticles (NPs) are increasingly being used in many areas, e.g., industry, pharmacy, and biomedical engineering. NPs can be obtained through chemical and biological synthesis or using physical methods. AgNPs, AuNPs, CuNPs, FeNPs, MgNPs, SnO2NPs, TiO2NPs, and ZnONPs are the most commonly synthesized metal nanoparticles. Many of them have anti-microbial properties and documented activity supported by many tests against some species of pathogenic bacteria, viruses, and fungi. AgNPs, which are used for the production of commercial self-sterilizing packages, are one of the best-explored nanoparticles. Moreover, the EFSA has approved the use of small doses of silver nanoparticles (0.05 mg Ag·kg−1) to food products. Recent studies have shown that metal NPs can be used for the production of coatings to prevent the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which has caused the global pandemic. Some nanoparticles (e.g., ZnONPs and MgONPs) have the Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) status, i.e., they are considered safe for consumption and can be used for the production of edible coatings, protecting food against spoilage. Promising results have been obtained in research on the use of more than one type of nanometals, which prevents the development of pathogen resistance through various mechanisms of inactivation thereof.

Abstract
Nanoscale contaminants (including engineered nanoparticles and nanoplastics) pose a significant threat to organisms and environment. Rapid and non-destructive detection and identification of nanosized materials in cells, tissues and organisms is still challenging, although a number of conventional methods exist. These approaches for nanoparticles imaging and characterisation both inside the cytoplasm and on the cell or tissue outer surfaces, such as electron or scanning probe microscopies, are unquestionably potent tools, having excellent resolution and supplemented with chemical analysis capabilities. However, imaging and detection of nanomaterials in situ, in wet unfixed and even live samples, such as living isolated cells, microorganisms, protozoans and miniature invertebrates using electron microscopy is practically impossible, because of the elaborate sample preparation requiring chemical fixation, contrast staining, matrix embedding and exposure into vacuum. Atomic force microscopy, in several cases, can be used for imaging and mechanical analysis of live cells and organisms under ambient conditions, however this technique allows for investigation of surfaces. Therefore, a different approach allowing for imaging and differentiation of nanoscale particles in wet samples is required. Dark-field microscopy as an optical microscopy technique has been popular among researchers, mostly for imaging relatively large specimens. In recent years, the so-called "enhanced dark field" microscopy based on using higher numerical aperture light condensers and variable numerical aperture objectives has emegred, which allows for imaging of nanoscale particles (starting from 5 nm nanospheres) using almost conventional optical microscopy methodology. Hyperspectral imaging can turn a dark-field optical microscope into a powerful chemical characterisation tool. As a result, this technique is becoming popular in environmental nanotoxicology studies. In this Review Article we introduce the reader into the methodology of enhanced dark-field and dark-field-based hyperspectral microscopy, covering the most important advances in this rapidly-expanding area of environmental nanotoxicology.

Abstract
In this review article, the recent examples of nanoarchitectonics on living cells are briefly explained. Not limited to conventional polymers, functional polymers, biomaterials, nanotubes, nanoparticles (conventional and magnetic ones), various inorganic substances, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), and other advanced materials have been used as components for nanoarchitectonic decorations for living cells. Despite these artificial processes, the cells can remain active or remain in hibernation without being killed. In most cases, basic functions of the cells are preserved and their resistances against external assaults are much enhanced. The possibilities of nanoarchitectonics on living cells would be high, equal to functional modifications with conventional materials. Living cells can be regarded as highly functionalized objects and have indispensable contributions to future materials nanoarchitectonics.

Abstract
Exosomes have attracted significant attention as cancer diagnostic targets and therapeutic agents due to their unique biogenesis and structure. To clarify the biological activities of exosomes, it is important to obtain a picture of their intracellular distribution and how they evolve over time. In this work, a new kind of intracellular exosome imaging and concurrent pH sensing method is demonstrated by using the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique. Specifically, 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4MBA)-tagged silver nanoparticles are attached onto the outer surfaces of exosomes, in which silver nanoparticles are employed as SERS generators. Raman agents 4MBA are susceptible to a specific intracellular stimulus, that is, undergo a protonation or deprotonation in response to intracellular pH variation, which correspondingly exhibit different vibrational spectra features. By using the SERS spectroscopy, tracking of the intracellular distribution of exosomes and the concurrent quantitative sensing of environmental pH were achieved, which demonstrated that, as time prolonged, exosomes first attached with the tumor cell surfaces, and then entered into the cells and accumulated in lysosomes. Such SERS-active hybridized exosomes, that are sensitive to discrete variations in intracellular pH, have proved their capability for the investigation of interactions between exosomes and cells. The spectral diversity and flexible surface modification of these hybridized exosomes are also highly expected in developing multifunctional exosome-based nanoplatforms, which offers great potential to promote the exosome-based therapeutics forward into an advanced stage.

Nigamatzyanova L, Fakhrullin R. Dark-field hyperspectral microscopy for label-free microplastics and nanoplastics detection and identification in vivo: A Caenorhabditis elegans study. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2021; 271:116337. [PMID: 33383415 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2020.116337] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2020] [Revised: 12/14/2020] [Accepted: 12/15/2020] [Indexed: 05/22/2023]
Abstract
Microplastics pollution is a serious ecological threat, severely affecting environments and human health. Tackling microplastics pollution requires an effective methodology to detect minute polymer particles in environmental samples and organisms. Here were report a novel methodology to visualise and identify nanoscale (down to 100 nm) and microscale synthetic commercially-available uniform spherical polymer particles using dark-field hyperspectral microscopy in visible-near infrared (400-1000 nm) wavelength range. Polystyrene particles with diameters between 100 nm-1 μm, polymethacrylate 1 μm and melamine formaldehyde 2 μm microspheres suspended in pure water samples were effectively imaged and chemically identified based on spectral signatures and image-assisted analysis. We succeeded in visualisation and spectral identification of pure and mixed nano- and microplastics in vivo employing optically-transparent Caenorhabditis elegans nematodes as a model to demonstrate the ingestion and tissue distribution of microplastics. As we demonstrate here, dark-field hyperspectral microscopy is capable for differentiating between chemically-different microplastics confined within live invertebrate intestines. Moreover, this optical technology allows for quantitative identification of microplastics ingested by nematodes. We believe that this label-free non-destructive methodology will find numerous applications in environmental nano- and microplastics detection and quantification, investigation of their biodistribution in tissues and organs and nanotoxicology.

Abstract
Bioelectronic medicine aims to interface electronic technology with biological components and design more effective therapeutic and diagnostic tools. Advances in nanotechnology have moved the field forward improving the seamless interaction between biological and electronic components. In the lab many of these nanobioelectronic devices have the potential to improve current treatment approaches, including those for cancer, cardiovascular disorders, and disease underpinned by malfunctions in neuronal electrical communication. While promising, many of these devices and technologies require further development before they can be successfully applied in a clinical setting. Here, we highlight recent work which is close to achieving this goal, including discussion of nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, and nanowires for medical applications. We also look forward toward the next decade to determine how current developments in nanotechnology could shape the growing field of bioelectronic medicine. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Emerging Technologies Nanotechnology Approaches to Biology > Nanoscale Systems in Biology Diagnostic Tools > Biosensing.

Abstract
Incorporation of non-equilibrium actions in the sequence of self-assembly processes would be an effective means to establish bio-like high functionality hierarchical assemblies. As a novel methodology beyond self-assembly, nanoarchitectonics, which has as its aim the fabrication of functional materials systems from nanoscopic units through the methodological fusion of nanotechnology with other scientific disciplines including organic synthesis, supramolecular chemistry, microfabrication, and bio-process, has been applied to this strategy. The application of non-equilibrium factors to conventional self-assembly processes is discussed on the basis of examples of directed assembly, Langmuir-Blodgett assembly, and layer-by-layer assembly. In particular, examples of the fabrication of hierarchical functional structures using bio-active components such as proteins or by the combination of bio-components and two-dimensional nanomaterials, are described. Methodologies described in this review article highlight possible approaches using the nanoarchitectonics concept beyond self-assembly for creation of bio-like higher functionalities and hierarchical structural organization.

Abstract
Heavy metals are classified as persistent pollutants owing to their nature of bioaccumulation and affect human life and environment, even in minor concentrations. Divalent Cadmium (Cd2+) is one of the heavy metal pollutants that are highly toxic. The present study investigates the novel application of maghemite nanoparticles coated Bacillus subtilis for the removal of Cd2+ ions from its aqueous solution by batch adsorption studies. Surface characterization of the biosorbent done by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and the presence of maghemite nanoparticle coat was confirmed. Parameters like pH, initial metal ion concentration, contact time, and temperature that affect the biosorption of cadmium ions are analyzed, and the equilibrium adsorption capacity expressed as a function of each of the parameters. The mechanism of biosorption was studied by plotting adsorption isotherms, and it follows pseudo-second-order kinetics. Thermodynamic studies showed the process to be spontaneous and endothermic. At optimum conditions of pH 4, 30 °C, 120 rpm, maximum removal percentage of 83.5%, which accounts for an equilibrium adsorption capacity of 32.6 mg/g of biosorbent. There was a recovery of 76.4% of the biosorbent after adsorption studies. Based on the adsorptive capacity and good recovery of the biosorbent, maghemite coated Bacillus subtilis proves to be an efficient adsorbent for the removal of Cd2+ ions from its aqueous solution.

Abstract
Non-cytotoxic, temperature-responsive and antibacterial poly(di(ethylene glycol)methyl ether methacrylate) - POEGMA188 based nanocomposite coatings attached to a glass surface were successfully prepared using ATRP polymerization. The thickness, morphology and wettability of the resulting coatings were analyzed using ellipsometry, AFM and contact angle measurements, respectively. The strong impact of the thicknesses of the POEGMA188 grafted brush coatings and content of AgNPs on the morphology and temperature-induced wettability changes of the nanocomposite was demonstrated. In addition to the strong temperature-dependent antibacterial activity, the proposed nanocomposite coatings have no significant cytotoxic effect towards normal cells. Moreover, the slight anti-cancer effect of AgNPs may be suggested.

Abstract
In the presented work "smart" antibacterial surfaces based on silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) embedded in temperature-responsive poly(di(ethylene glycol)methyl ether methacrylate) - (POEGMA188) as well as poly(4-vinylpyridine) - (P4VP) coatings attached to a glass surface were successfully prepared. The composition, thickness, morphology and wettability of the resulting coatings were analyzed using ToF-SIMS, XPS, EDX, ellipsometry, AFM, SEM and CA measurements, respectively. Temperature-switched killing of the bacteria was tested against Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 (representative of Gram-negative bacteria) and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 (representative of Gram-positive bacteria) at 4 and 37 °C. In general at 4 °C no significant difference was observed between the amounts of bacteria accounted on the grafted brush coatings and within the control sample. In contrast, at 37 °C almost no bacteria were visible for temperature-responsive coating with AgNPs, whereas the growth of bacteria remains not disturbed for "pure" coating, indicating strong temperature-dependent antibacterial properties of AgNPs integrated into brushes.

Abstract
With increasing emission of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) into the environment, it is important to understand the effects of ambient concentration of AgNPs. The biological effects of AgNPs on Scenedesmus obliquus, a ubiquitous freshwater microalgae, was evaluated. AgNPs exerted a minor inhibitory effect at low doses. Non-targeted metabolomic studies were conducted to understand and analyze the effect of AgNPs on algal cells from a molecular perspective. During the 48 hr of exposure to AgNPs, 30 metabolites were identified, of which nine had significant changes compared to the control group. These include d-galactose, sucrose, and d-fructose. These carbohydrates are involved in the synthesis and repair of cell walls. Glycine, an important constituent amino acid of glutathione, increased with AgNP exposure concentration increasing, likely to counteract an increased intracellular oxidative stress. These results provide a new understanding of the toxicity effects and mechanism of AgNPs. These metabolites could be useful biomarkers for future research, employed in the early detection of environmental risk from AgNPs.

Abstract
Encapsulating living cells within multilayer functional shells is a crucial extension of cellular functions and a further development of cell surface engineering. In the last decade, cell encapsulation has been widely utilized in many cutting-edge biomedical fields. Compared with other techniques for cell encapsulation, layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly technology, due to the versatility and tunability to fabricate diverse multilayer shells with controllable compositions and structures, is considered as a promising approach for cell encapsulation. This review summarizes the state-of-the-art and potential future biomedical applications of LbL cell encapsulation. First of all, a brief introduction to the LbL self-assembly technique, including assembly mechanisms and technologies, is made. Next, different cell encapsulation strategies by LbL self-assembly techniques are explained. Then, the biomedical applications of LbL cell encapsulation in cell-based biosensors, cell transplantation, cell/molecule delivery, and tissue engineering, are highlighted. Finally, discussions on the current limitations and future perspectives of LbL cell encapsulation are also provided.

Abstract
The increasing number of reports about false positive or negative results from conventional cytotoxicity assays of nanomaterials (NMs) suggests that more reliable NM toxicity assessment methods should be developed. Here, we report a novel approach for nanotoxicity evaluation based on surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). Three model NMs were tested on two model cell lines and the results were validated by WST-1 cytotoxicity assay and annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide (PI) staining as apoptosis-necrosis assay. The localization of nanoparticles (NPs) in the cells and the cellular conditions upon NP incubation were visualized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and enhanced dark-field (EDF) microscopy. SERS revealed a broader view on the consequences of cell-NM interactions compared to the conventional cytotoxicity assays where only one aspect of toxicity can be measured by one assay type. The results suggest that SERS can significantly contribute to the cytotoxicity evaluation bypassing NM or assay component-related complications with less effort.

Abstract
Formation of both mechanically durable and programmably degradable layer-by-layer (LbL) films in a biocompatible fashion has potential applications in cell therapy, tissue engineering, and drug-delivery systems, where the films are interfaced with living cells. In this work, we developed a simple but versatile method for generating in situ cross-linked and responsively degradable LbL films, based on the thiol-exchange reaction, under highly cytocompatible conditions (aqueous solution at pH 7.4 and room temperature). The cytocompatibility of the processes was confirmed by coating individual yeast cells with the cross-linked LbL films and breaking the films on demand, while maintaining the cell viability. In addition, the processes were applied to the controlled release of an anticancer drug in the HeLa cells.
