Effect of silver nanoparticles on tropane alkaloid production of transgenic hairy root cultures of Hyoscyamus muticus L. and their antimicrobial activity.

The utilization of nanotechnology and biotechnology for enhancing the synthesis of plant bioactive chemicals is becoming increasingly common. The hairy root culture technique can be used to increase secondary metabolites such as tropane alkaloids. Agrobacterium was used to induce hairy roots from various explants of Hyoscyamus muticus.

Eco-friendly Biosynthesis of Ag-NPs by Streptomyces griseus With Anti- Candida albicans and Antitumor Activity.

Background: The most significant sexually transmissible fungal disease, semen candidiasis, is caused by Candida albicans and impacts male reproductive potential. Actinomycetes are a group of microorganisms that could be isolated from various habitats and used for the biosynthesis of various nanoparticles with biomedical applications.

Objective: Testing antifungal activity of biosynthesized Ag nanoparticles versus isolated C.

De novo expression and antibacterial potential of four lactoferricin peptides in cell-free protein synthesis system.

For the first time, we produced four lactoferricin (LFcin) peptides by a cell-free () method. These short antimicrobial peptides were expressed in an cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) system and the bioactivity of the produced peptides was demonstrated. Additionally, we designed a novel synthetic consensus peptide (ConLFcin).

Synthesis and investigations on tellurium myconanoparticles.

Tellurium has attracted the attention of many researchers and manufacturers due to its unique properties. Through the current work, six fungal isolates have been screened for their ability to reduce potassium tellurite (KTeO) into elemental tellurium nanoparticles (TeNPs). The most promising fungal isolate was identified as and given the accession number (KY766958) based on molecular basis and has been used for biogenic (enzymatic) production of TeNPs.
