Photoluminescence-tunable fluorescent carbon dots-deposited silver nanoparticle for detection and killing of bacteria.

Materials science & engineering. C, Materials for biological applications
Innovative methods to detect and kill pathogenic bacteria have a pivotal role in the eradication of infectious diseases and the prevention of the growth of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The combination of fluorescent carbon dots (FCDs) with silver n...

Synthesis and characterization of Zinc oxide nanoparticles utilizing seed source of Ricinus communis and study of its antioxidant, antifungal and anticancer activity.

Materials science & engineering. C, Materials for biological applications
ZnO nanoparticles have been synthesized using solution combustion technique and its antioxidant, antifungal, anticancer activity was studied. Ricinus communis plant seed extract used as fuel in synthesis by the solution combustion technique. Powder X...

Alarm lateral flow immunoassay for detection of the total infection caused by the five viruses.

Talanta
This study presents new type of the lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) for multi-target analysis. A test, named alarm-LFIA, has an essentially new function that consists in notice (signaling the danger) about the presence at least one target from the co...

Setting Up a Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering Database for Artificial-Intelligence-Based Label-Free Discrimination of Tumor Suppressor Genes.

Analytical chemistry
The quality of input data in deep learning is tightly associated with the ultimate performance of the machine learner. Taking advantage of the unique merits of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) methodology in the collection and construction of...

Genotoxicity evaluation of titanium dioxide nanoparticles using the mouse lymphoma assay and the Ames test.

Mutation research. Genetic toxicology and environmental mutagenesis
Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO-NPs) are widely used in the cosmetics, health, and food industries, but their safety and genotoxicity remain a matter of debate. We investigated whether TiO-NPs could induce gene mutations in mouse lymphoma L5178Y ...

Combination Therapy of Clinically Approved Antifungal Drugs Is Enhanced by Conjugation with Silver Nanoparticles.

International microbiology : the official journal of the Spanish Society for Microbiology
Silver nanoparticles (SN) have been recently developed as a new class of antimicrobial agents against numerous pathogenic microorganisms. SN have also been used as efficient drug delivery systems and have been linked with increasing drug potency. Her...

Predicting the toxicities of metal oxide nanoparticles based on support vector regression with a residual bootstrapping method.

Toxicology mechanisms and methods
For safely using the untested metal oxide nanoparticles (MONPs) in industrial and commercial applications, it is important to predict their potential toxicities quickly and efficiently. In this research, the quantitative structure-activity relationsh...

Biosynthesis of copper nanoparticles using Shewanella loihica PV-4 with antibacterial activity: Novel approach and mechanisms investigation.

Journal of hazardous materials
Metallic nanoparticle based disinfection represents a promising approach for microbial pollution control in drinking water and thus, biosynthesis of non precious metal nanoparticles is of considerable interest. Herein, an original and efficient route...

Magnetically Coated Bioabsorbable Stents for Renormalization of Arterial Vessel Walls after Stent Implantation.

Nano letters
The insertion of a stent in diseased arteries is a common endovascular procedure that can be compromised by the development of short- and long-term inflammatory responses leading to restenosis and thrombosis, respectively. While treatment with drugs,...
