Antimicrobial activity of phytofabricated silver nanoparticles using L. against Gram-negative bacteria.

Background And Aim: Antibiotic resistance, especially in Gram-negative bacteria, is a major public health risk affecting all industries requiring the use of antibiotics, including agriculture and animal breeding. This study aimed to use papaya extracts to synthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and evaluate their antimicrobial activity against various Gram-negative bacteria.

Materials And Methods: Silver nanoparticles were synthesized from the aqueous extracts of papaya seed, root, and bark, with AgNO used as a reducing agent.

Antimicrobial and Antibiotic-Resistance Reversal Activity of Some Medicinal Plants from Cameroon against Selected Resistant and Non-Resistant Uropathogenic Bacteria.

Background And Aim: Antibiotics' resistance is the leading cause of complications in the treatment of urinary tract infections. This study aimed to screen the antimicrobial potential of 8 plants from Cameroon against multi-resistant uropathogenic (MRU) bacteria and to investigate their antibioresistance reversal properties.

Method: Bioactive compounds were extracted from leaves of , , and ; barks of and barks and seeds of and leaves and seeds of using water and ethanol as solvents.

The public health issue of antibiotic residues in food and feed: Causes, consequences, and potential solutions.

Antibiotics are among the essential veterinary medicine compounds associated with animal feed and food animal production. The use of antibiotics for the treatment of bacterial infections is almost unavoidable, with less need to demonstrate their importance. Although banned as a growth factor for a few years, their use in animals can add residues in foodstuffs, presenting several environmental, technological, animal health, and consumer health risks.
