Assessment of antibacterial and anti-biofilm effects of zinc ferrite nanoparticles against Klebsiella pneumoniae.

In response to the emergence of drug resistance and limited therapeutic options, researchers are in action to look for more effective and sustainable antimicrobial practices. Over few years, novel nanoparticles are proving to be potent and promising for effectively dealing with ever- evolving microbial pathogens and diseases. In the present investigation, antibacterial and anti-biofilm efficiencies of zinc ferrite nanoparticles (ZnFeO NPs) are explored against opportunistic pathogens Klebsiella pneumoniae (K.

Recent Advances in Synthesis and Anticancer Potential of Triazole-Containing Scaffolds.

Cancer is the most lethal disease that may be found anywhere globally. Approximately 10% of individuals die due to cancer of various types, with 19.3 million new cancer cases and 10 million deaths reported in 2020.

Fungal Planet description sheets: 868-950.

Novel species of fungi described in this study include those from various countries as follows: , and on leaves, , and on leaves, and on leaves, on leaves, on litter of regenerating subtropical rainforest, (incl. gen. nov.

Catalytic reduction of p-nitrophenol and methylene blue by microbiologically synthesized silver nanoparticles.

Catalytic Reduction of p-nitrophenol and Methylene blue by Microbiologically Synthesized Silver Nanoparticles was studied in the present investigation. Catalytic reduction of 4-Nitophenol/p-nitrophenol (PNP) and methylene blue (MB) was assessed using both intra and extracellular silver nanoparticles (AgNP) with and without immobilization. Both intracellular and extracellular AgNP were synthesized from actinomycetes.

Comparative bioleaching of metals from pulverized and non-pulverized PCBs of cell phone charger: advantages of non-pulverized PCBs.

Sample inhomogeneity is a severe issue in printed circuit boards especially when we are comparing the bioleaching efficiency. To avoid the ambiguous results obtained due to inhomogeneity in PCBs, 12 similar cell phone chargers (of renowned company) having same make and batch number were collected from scrap market. PCBs obtained from them were used in present studies.
