Background: Antibiotic resistance in various microorganisms has become one of the most serious health problems worldwide. The use of nanoparticles in combination with conventional antibiotics is one of the recent efforts to overcome these challenges. This study aims to synthesize and evaluate the possibility of using amikacin-loaded selenium nanoparticles as antibacterial agent against multidrug-resistant , that causes bovine mastitis.

Objectives: In the present study, we investigate the effect of FeO nanoparticles conjugated with ursolic acid (FeONPs@UA) on inhibiting the growth, biofilm-forming ability and efflux pump activity in clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa with multiple drug resistance.

Methods: Iron oxide NPs conjugated with ursolic acid (FeONPs@UA) were synthesized. Physicochemical features of the NPs were studied by FT-IR, XRD, EDAX, and TEM.

The spread of microbial resistance is a threat to public health. In this study, the anti-microbial, anti-biofilm, and efflux pump inhibitory effects of ellagic acid-loaded magnetic nanoparticles (FeONPs@EA) against beta-lactamase producing Escherichia coli isolates have been investigated. The effects of FeO NPs@EA on the growth inhibition of E.

Hydatid cysts in the neck area are considered as very rare and few cases have been reported in endemic areas. In the present study, we reported a 38-year-old female that underwent surgical operation for extraction of simple cyst in the submandibular area and the diagnosis of hydatid cyst was established by laboratory examinations. The patient was later diagnosed with hepatic hydatid cyst and received systemic treatments.
