Antifungal and antibacterial investigation of quinary Zr Al Fe Co Ni layered double hydroxide and its Al Fe Co Ni quaternary and Fe Co Ni tertiary roots.

Layered double hydroxides (LDH) are promising 2D nanomaterials being investigated for several engineering and biomedical applications. In this work, quinary Zr Al Fe Co Ni LDH and its Al Fe Co Ni LDH quaternary and Fe Co Ni LDH tertiary roots were prepared and characterized. All samples showed an aggregated, layered morphology with zero surface charge and approximately 300 nm of hydrodynamic size.

Controlling Multi-Drug-Resistant Traits of Obtained from Retail Poultry Shops Using Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) as a Novel Technique.

spp. is considered one of the most important causes of food-borne illness globally. Poultry and its products are usually incriminated in its spread.

Antimicrobial properties of promising Zn-Fe based layered double hydroxides for the disinfection of real dairy wastewater effluents.

Bacterial resistance to conventional antibiotics is a serious challenge that requires novel antibacterial agents. Moreover, wastewater from dairy farms might contain countless number of pathogens, organic contaminants and heavy metals that consider a threat to the terrestrial and aquatic environment. Therefore, the development of cost-effective, highly operation-convenient, recyclable multifunctional antimicrobial agents became an urgent necessity.

Assessment of the efficacy of thymol against in experimentally infected rats.

The effect of thymol and ivermectin on the development and embryonation of () eggs, as well as their migration in albino rats was investigated both in vitro and in vivo. A total of forty male albino rats were divided into four groups for an in vivo experiment. The first group was uninfected; the second group was infected but left untreated; the third group was infected and received thymol at a dose of 40 mg/kg; and the fourth group was infected and received ivermectin (0.

Control of biofilm-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from dairy farm using Virokill silver nano-based disinfectant as an alternative approach.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is an important opportunistic pathogen that is responsible for many clinical infections in both animals and humans. This study aimed to detect the prevalence of P.

Cefotax-magnetic nanoparticles as an alternative approach to control Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) from different sources.

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of magnetic nanocomposite of cefotax against MRSA. A total of 190 samples were collected from milk, farm personnel and different environmental components from the dairy farm under the study to isolate S. aureus.

Prevalence, virulence genes, and antimicrobial resistance profile of isolated from retail poultry shops in Beni-Suef city, Egypt.

Objective: This study investigated the prevalence of in retail poultry shops, characterized the antibiotic resistance profile, and detected the genotypic pattern of virulence genes.

Materials And Methods: Broiler meat ( = 90), intestinal content ( = 40), and environmental samples ( = 95) were collected for this study. Besides, hand swabs ( = 20) were obtained from the poultry shop workers and stool samples ( = 40) were collected from the outpatient clinics of Beni-Suef University Hospital, Egypt.

The prevalence of Campylobacter species in broiler flocks and their environment: assessing the efficiency of chitosan/zinc oxide nanocomposite for adopting control strategy.

There is a growing trend to implement biosecurity measures in small commercial broiler flocks and trying to replace ineffective antimicrobial with alternative materials to interevent a strategy for the control of Campylobacter bacteria in these farms. This study was designed to determine the prevalence rate of Campylobacter spp. in broiler flocks and their environment.

Novel approach for controlling resistant Listeria monocytogenes to antimicrobials using different disinfectants types loaded on silver nanoparticles (AgNPs).

A combined use of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with different types of disinfectants as antimicrobial might be useful in mitigating the problem of development of bacterial resistance with a strong enhancement of the biocidal effect of disinfectants. To evaluate the biocidal activity of silver nanoparticles and its loaded forms, five commercial disinfectants (quaternary ammonium compounds (benzalkonium chloride (BC) and TH), Virkon®S, sodium hypochlorite, and hydrogen peroxide (HO)) were used against Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) isolates at different concentrations and exposure times to reveal intra-species variability and the percentage of resistance to antimicrobial agents used.
