Article Synopsis
- A solvent casting technique was employed to create biomimetic nanocomposite scaffolds using varying concentrations of Curcumin-loaded gold nanoparticles (Cur-AuNPs) combined with chitosan-sodium alginate.
- The physicochemical properties of the Cur-AuNPs and the resulting nanocomposites were analyzed through various characterization methods, focusing on their biocompatibility and antibacterial activity.
- These studies indicate that Cur-AuNPs integrated with biomimetic nanocomposites have potential applications for nanotheranostics in targeted therapies.
Isolated renal mucormycosis (IRM) in an immunocompetent child is extremely rare condition and carries a grave prognosis. We report an 18-month-old child with IRM who was managed successfully with amphotericin B and nephrectomy.
