Phytochemical properties of Cyrtocarpa edulis peel exert antimicrobial activity and enhance immunobiological parameters in Almaco jack Seriola rivoliana cells.

Fish aquaculture has increased but also disease problems related to it, along with antimicrobial resistance. The use of medicinal plants containing phytochemicals with antimicrobial, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory activities has been proposed. In this study, C.

Biogenic AgO nanoparticles with "Hoja Santa" (Piper auritum) extract: characterization and biological capabilities.

The 'sacred leaf' or "Hoja Santa" (Piper auritum Kunth) has a great value for Mexican culture and has gained popularity worldwide for its excellent properties from culinary to remedies. To contribute to its heritage, in this project we proposed the green synthesis of silver oxide nanoparticles (AgO NPs) using an extract of "Hoja Santa" (Piper auritum) as a reducing and stabilizing agent. The synthesized AgO NPs were characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopy (plasmon located at 405 nm), X-ray diffraction (XRD) (particle size diameter of 10 nm), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) (particle size diameter of 13.

Tannic acid-layered hydroxide salt hybrid: assessment of antibiofilm formation and foodborne pathogen growth inhibition.

Pathogenic bacteria in food are a public health problem worldwide. Polyphenolic bioactive compounds with antimicrobial activity and antioxidant capacity represent a tangible alternative to overcome this problem. To preserve the biological functions of phenolic compounds such as tannic acid, which has been described to possess antioxidant and antimicrobial activity, this study describes the synthesis of a zinc nanohydroxide to stabilize its properties.

Development, characterization, and immunomodulation performance of spray-dried Moringa oleifera seed extract in Longfin yellowtail Seriola rivoliana.

Moringa oleifera is one of the most promising plants in aquaculture because it improves the health status, zootechnical parameters and resistance against diseases. This research evaluates the physicochemical, antioxidant values of spray-dried Moringa oleifera seed extract microencapsulates obtained at 140 and 180 °C with whey protein concentrate (WPC) and maltodextrin (MD) as wall materials in two different proportions: WPC 100% and WPC-MD (3:1). Also, immune response of peripheral blood leukocytes (PBL) of Longfin yellowtail Seriola rivoliana stimulated with spray-dried Moringa oleifera seed for 24 h was assessed.

Determining the Photoelectrical Behavior and Photocatalytic Activity of an h-YMnO New Type of Obelisk-like Perovskite in the Degradation of Malachite Green Dye.

YMnO is a P-type semiconductor with a perovskite-type structure (ABO). It presents two crystalline systems: rhombohedral and hexagonal, the latter being the most stable and studied. In the hexagonal system, Mn ions are coordinated by five oxygen ions forming a trigonal bipyramid, and the Y ions are coordinated by five oxygen ions.

Nanohybrid of Thymol and 2D Simonkolleite Enhances Inhibition of Bacterial Growth, Biofilm Formation, and Free Radicals.

Due to the current concerns against opportunistic pathogens and the challenge of antimicrobial resistance worldwide, alternatives to control pathogen growth are required. In this sense, this work offers a new nanohybrid composed of zinc-layered hydroxide salt (Simonkolleite) and thymol for preventing bacterial growth. Materials were characterized with XRD diffraction, FTIR and UV-Vis spectra, SEM microscopy, and dynamic light scattering.

Chemical and biological protection of food grade nisin through their partial intercalation in laminar hydroxide salts.

The use of antimicrobial agents within a matrix, specifically layered compounds, is of growing interest for reducing contamination due to food borne pathogens and deteriorative microorganisms, one of the main health problems worldwide. In this study, zinc layered hydroxide nanoparticles were synthesized as a matrix for nisin immobilization. Layered materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier-Transform Infrared and Ultra Violet-Visible spectra, Scanning Electron Microscopy, and by Thermogravimetric Analysis.

Assessment of chemical, biological and immunological properties of "Damiana de California" Turnera diffusa Willd extracts in Longfin yellowtail (Seriola rivoliana) leukocytes.

In Mexican herbal medicines or natural remedies, Turnera diffusa (Turneraceae) known as "Damiana de California", has ethnopharmacological relevance, including aphrodisiac, diuretic, and antimicrobial activities. To explore the immunological effect of infusion and methanolic extracts from Damiana de California, this study investigated its chemical, biological, antimicrobial and immunological properties in Longfin yellowtail Seriola rivoliana leukocytes. The analysis of chemical compounds revealed a considerable level of total phenolic and flavonoid contents in the infusion compared with methanolic extract.

Immobilizing yeast β-glucan on zinc-layered hydroxide nanoparticle improves innate immune response in fish leukocytes.

Nanoparticle-based delivery technologies have played a central role in a wide variety of applications, including cell therapy, gene transformation, and cellular delivery of molecular dyes. This work synthesized via ionic exchange a nanoparticle consisting of zinc-layered hydroxychloride coupled with yeast β-glucan (ZG), whose cellular immune response was evaluated using fish spleen leukocytes. Leukocytes from the marine Pacific red snapper (Lutjanus peru) were stimulated with zinc-layered hydroxychloride (ZHC) coupled with yeast β-glucan (GLU) and challenged with live Vibrio parahaemolyticus after 24 h.
