Triacylglycerol lipase from Pseudomonas cepacia and Fe(3)O(4) magnetic nanoparticles were encapsulated simultaneously within biomimetic silica through the catalysis of polyallylamine. The encapsulation efficiency reached 96% with an activity recovery of 51%. After 5 h at 37°C, the activities of the free and encapsulated lipases decreased by 77 and 16%, respectively. Addition of 10 and 15 mol% trimethylmethoxysilane to tetramethoxysilane during encapsulation doubled the lipase activity while inclusion of 50 and 60 mol% γ-(methacryloxypropyl)-trimethoxysilane tripled the activity. Thus, such encapsulation not only stabilized P. cepacia lipase but also could enhance the activity by varying silane additives.

The development of efficient immobilization support for the enhancement of enzyme activity and recyclability is a highly desirable objective. Single-crystalline ordered macro-microporous ZIF-8 (SOM-ZIF-8), has emerged as a highly effective matrix for enzyme immobilization, however, the inherent hydrophobic nature limits its further advancement. Herein, we have customized the immobilization of the Pseudomonas cepacia lipase (LP) in the modification-channels of SOM-ZIF-8 by functionalizing the inner surface-properties with polyethylene glycol (PEG) (LP@SOM-ZIF-8-PEG), and significant enhancement of the activity and (thermal, solvent and cyclic) stability can be realized.

() infections are increasingly challenging due to their propensity to form biofilms and low outer membrane permeability, especially in chronically infected patients with thick mucus. exhibits multiple drug resistance mechanisms, making it one of the most significant global public health threats. In this study, we found that moxifloxacin (MXC) and antibacterial peptides (ε-poly-l-lysine, ε-PLL) exhibited a synergistic effect against multidrug-resistant (MDR-).

Iron is essential for the formation, maturation and dispersal of bacterial biofilms, playing a crucial role in the physiological and metabolic functions of bacteria as well as in the regulation of virulence. Limited availability of iron can impair the formation of robust biofilms by altering cellular motility, hydrophobicity and protein composition of the bacterial surface. In this study, the antibiofilm activity of two natural iron chelating agents, kojic acid (5-hydroxy-2-hydroxymethyl-4H-pyran-4-one) and maltol (3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyrone), were investigated against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
