Finding of antibiotic compounds pyrrolo [1,2-a]pyrazine-1,4-dione, hexahydro and Cyclo(prolyl-tyrosyl) isolated from the degradation of epoxy.

The investigation focused on the endophytic gram-positive microbial isolate KARE_P3, capable of degrading epoxy resin materials. This isolate produced bioactive secondary metabolic molecules with potent inhibitory effects against , Microbial Type Culture Collection and GenBank (MTCC 96). The study examined microbial growth and degradation mechanisms at various time points, with samples collected on the 35th and 70th days of fermentation.

Characterization of cotton fabric nanocomposites with generated copper nanoparticles for antimicrobial applications.

In the present study, cotton fabric nanocomposites with generated copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) were prepared using leaf extract as reducing agent. The prepared cotton fabric nanocomposites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscoy (SEM) techniques. The cotton fabric nanocomposites exhibited significant antibacterial activity against bacteria.
