Nanophytomedicine: A promising practical approach in phytotherapy.

The long and rich history of herbal therapeutic nutrients is fascinating. It is incredible to think about how ancient civilizations used plants and herbs to treat various ailments and diseases. One group of bioactive phytochemicals that has gained significant attention recently is dietary polyphenols.

Enhancement of the biological autoluminescence by mito-liposomal gold nanoparticle nanocarriers.

One of the most important barriers to the detection of the biological autoluminescence (BAL) from biosystems using a non-invasive monitoring approach, in both the in vivo and the in vitro applications, is its very low signal intensity (< 1000 photons/s/cm). Experimental studies have revealed that the formation of electron excited species, as a result of reactions of biomolecules with reactive oxygen species (ROS), is the principal biochemical source of the BAL which occurs during the cell metabolism. Mitochondria, as the most important organelles involved in oxidative metabolism, are considered to be the main intracellular BAL source.

Selenium nanoparticle as a bright promising anti-nanobacterial agent.

The use of nanotechnology for nanobacteria (or calcifying nanoparticles) treatment is a new creative approach. Use of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) as anti-nanobacterial agents might be considered as a bright promising approach due to their critical role in the inhibition of crystal growth and aggregation of calcium oxalate. Hence, in this study, we investigated the probable outcome of SeNPs inhibitory effects on growth of nanobacteria.

Resistance of nanobacteria isolated from urinary and kidney stones to broad-spectrum antibiotics.

Background And Objective: Nanoscopic life forms called Nanobacteria or calcifying nanoparticles (CNP) are unconventional agents. These novel organisms are very small (0.1 to 0.
