Antimicrobial resistance is one of the largest medical challenges because of the rising frequency of opportunistic human microbial infections across the globe. This study aimed to extract chitosan from the exoskeletons of dead bees and load it with bee venom (commercially available as Apitoxin [Api]). Then, the ionotropic gelation method would be used to form nanoparticles that could be a novel drug-delivery system that might eradicate eight common human pathogens (i.

In recent investigations, secondary bacterial infections were found to be strongly related to mortality in COVID-19 patients. In addition, and Methicillin-resistant (MRSA) bacteria played an important role in the series of bacterial infections that accompany infection in COVID-19. The objective of the present study was to investigate the ability of biosynthesized silver nanoparticles from strawberries ( L.

Surra is a parasitic disease caused by the eukaryotic, unicellular hemoprotozoan, , which affects the development of animal production and is widespread among both domestic and wild animals. As such, in this research, we studied the antiparasitic activity and the ameliorative impact of leaf extracts (ELE) against -induced brain injury and spleen immune response in mice. As a result, we found that ELE decreased the amount of trypanosomes in the blood and improved the weight loss caused by infection.

Magnesium nanoparticles have been the focus of study over the past few years because of its functionality in the body. Assessment of the impact of magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgNPs) on eimeriosis has yet to be conducted. The goal of this study was to see how MgNPs affected the parasite infected jejunum.

Eimeriosis is caused by a protozoan parasite of the genus Eimeria and infection affecting most domestic animal species. The aim of this research was to comprehend the impact of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) on eimeriosis induced by Eimeria papillata in mouse jejunum, and how they work as antioxidants and anti-apoptotic agents against eimeriosis. The numbers of meronts, gamonts, and developing oocysts of E.

Background: Although elemental selenium has been found to be effective against , no study has yet investigated the effects of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) on the parasite. The aim of this study, therefore, was to evaluate the ameliorative effect of SeNPs compared with elemental selenium on mice jejunum infected with sporulated oocysts of .

Methods: The mice were divided into 4 groups, with the first being the non-infected, control group, and the second, third, and fourth groups being orally inoculated with 1,000 sporulated oocysts of .
