Abstract
Using biomolecule-rich plant extracts, the conversion of metal ions to metal oxide nanoparticles via abiogenic approach is highly intriguing, environmentally friendly, and quick. The inherent inclination of plant extracts function as capping agents in the insitu synthesis. In this study, biogenic zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO−NPs) were synthesized using an aqueous leaf extract from Moringaoleifera. The ZnO−NPs were then mixed with carboxylated carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to create a carboxylated CNTs/biogenic ZnO composite using asol–gel method. The CNTs/ZnO composite displayed 18 mm, 16 mm, and 17 mm zones of inhibition (ZOI) against Bacillus cereus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli, respectively. In contrast with ZnO−NPs, the produced carboxylated CNTs/ZnO composite demonstrated a 13 percent elevation in ZOI as antibacterial activity against Bacillus cereus ATCC 19659, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853. The characterization of ZnO−NPs and the carboxylated CNTs/ZnO composite were performed via FTIR, UV/Vis spectroscopy, SEM, and XRD. The XRD pattern depicted a nano−sized crystalline structure (Wurtzite) of ZnO−NPs and a carboxylated CNTs/ZnO composite. The current work comprehends a valuable green technique for killing pathogenic bacteria, and gives fresh insights into the manufacture of metal oxide composites for future research.

Abstract
Viral infections are a major cause of severe, fatal diseases worldwide. Recently, these infections have increased due to demanding contextual circumstances, such as environmental changes, increased migration of people and product distribution, rapid demographic changes, and outbreaks of novel viruses, including the COVID-19 outbreak. Internal variables that influence viral immunity have received attention along with these external causes to avert such novel viral outbreaks. The gastrointestinal microbiome (GIM), particularly the present probiotics, plays a vital role in the host immune system by mediating host protective immunity and acting as an immune regulator. Bacteriocins possess numerous health benefits and exhibit antagonistic activity against enteric pathogens and immunobiotics, thereby inhibiting viral infections. Moreover, disrupting the homeostasis of the GIM/host immune system negatively affects viral immunity. The interactions between bacteriocins and infectious viruses, particularly in COVID-19, through improved host immunity and physiology are complex and have not yet been studied, although several studies have proven that bacteriocins influence the outcomes of viral infections. However, the complex transmission to the affected sites and siRNA defense against nuclease digestion lead to challenging clinical trials. Additionally, bacteriocins are well known for their biofunctional properties and underlying mechanisms in the treatment of bacterial and fungal infections. However, few studies have shown the role of probiotics-derived bacteriocin against viral infections. Thus, based on the results of the previous studies, this review lays out a road map for future studies on bacteriocins for treating viral infections.

LC-ESI-QTOF/MS characterization of antimicrobial compounds with their action mode extracted from vine tea ( Ampelopsis grossedentata) leaves. Food Sci Nutr 2022; 10:422-435. [PMID: 35154679 PMCID: PMC8825723 DOI: 10.1002/fsn3.2679] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2021] [Revised: 10/10/2021] [Accepted: 10/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Vine tea (Ampelopsis grossedentata) is a tea plant cultivated south of the Chinese Yangtze River. It has anti-inflammatory properties and is used to normalize blood circulation and detoxification. The leaves of vine tea are the most abundant source of flavonoids, such as dihydromyricetin and myricetin. However, as the main bioactive flavonoid in vine tea, dihydromyricetin was the main focus of previous research. This study aimed to explore the antibacterial activities of vine tea against selected foodborne pathogens. The antimicrobial activity of vine tea extract was evaluated by the agar well diffusion method. Cell membrane integrity and bactericidal kinetics, along with physical damage to the cell membrane, were also observed. The extract was analyzed using a high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD), and the results were confirmed using a modified version of a previously published method that combined liquid chromatography and electrospray-ionized quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-QTOF/MS). Cell membrane integrity and bactericidal kinetics were determined by releasing intracellular material in suspension and monitoring it at 260 nm using an ultraviolet (UV) spectrophotometer. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to detect morphological alterations and physical damage to the cell membrane. Six compounds were isolated successfully: (1) myricetin (C15H10O8), (2) myricetin 3-O-rhamnoside (C21H20O12), (3) 5,7,8,3,4-pentahydroxyisoflavone (C15H10O7), (4) dihydroquercetin (C15H12O7), (5) 6,8-dihydroxykaempferol (C15H10O8), and (6) ellagic acid glucoside (C20H16O13). Among these bioactive compounds, C15H10O7 was found to have vigorous antimicrobial activity against Bacillus cereus (AS11846) and Staphylococcus aureus (CMCCB26003). A dose-dependent bactericidal kinetics with a higher degree of absorbance at optical density 260 (OD260) was observed when the bacterial suspension was incubated with C15H10O7 for 8 h. Furthermore, a scanning electron microscope study revealed physical damage to the cell membrane. In addition, the action mode of C15H10O7 was on the cell wall of the target microorganism. Together, these results suggest that C15H10O7 has vigorous antimicrobial activity and can be used as a potent antimicrobial agent in the food processing industry.
