Paraburkholderia panacisoli sp. nov., a potentially antagonistic bacterium against the root rot fungal pathogen Cylindrocarpon destructans, isolated from ginseng cultivation soil.

A new bacterium, designated DCY113, was isolated from ginseng cultivation soil in Gochang-gun, South Korea, and its taxonomic position identified by the polyphasic approach. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis determined that this isolate belongs to the genus Paraburkholderia, and was closest to P. dipogonis DL7 (98.

Paenibacillus panacihumi sp. nov., a potential plant growth-promoting bacterium isolated from ginseng-cultivated soil.

A novel bacterium, designated DCY114, was isolated from ginseng-cultivated soil in Gochang-gun, Republic of Korea. This isolate was assigned to the genus Paenibacillus and is closely related to Paenibacillus amylolyticus NRRL NRS-290 (98.3%), P.

Biosynthesis of gold and silver chloride nanoparticles mediated by Crataegus pinnatifida fruit extract: in vitro study of anti-inflammatory activities.

This research article investigates the one-pot synthesis of gold and silver chloride nanoparticles functionalized by fruit extract of Crataegus pinnatifida as reducing and stabilizing agents and their possible roles as novel anti-inflammatory agents. Hawthorn (C. pinnatifida) fruits are increasingly popular as raw materials for functional foods and anti-inflammatory potential agents because of abundant flavonoids.

Biological synthesis of gold and silver chloride nanoparticles by Glycyrrhiza uralensis and in vitro applications.

The current study highlights the rapid biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles (Gu-AuNps) and silver chloride nanoparticles (Gu-AgClNps) by aqueous root extract of Glycyrrhiza uralensis, a medicinal plant. G. uralensis has been reported for anticancer and hepatoprotective effects.

Cardamom fruits as a green resource for facile synthesis of gold and silver nanoparticles and their biological applications.

Gold (FA-AuNps) and silver (FA-AgNps) nanoparticles were synthesized at room temperature by aqueous extract of dried fruits of Amomum villosum, also known as Fructus Amomi (cardamom), in order to confer antioxidant, catalytic, antimicrobial activities and treatment effect against breast cancer cells. Fruit extracts served as both reducing agents and stabilizers in lieu of chemical agents. Ultra-violet visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, field emission transmission electron microscopy (FE-TEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, elemental mapping, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy were employed to characterize the biosynthesized nanoparticles.
