AbstractAcinetobacter baumannii is a biofilm forming multidrug resistant (MDR) pathogen responsible for respiratory tract infections. In this study, aluminium oxide nanoparticles (Al2O3 NPs) were synthesized and characterized by TEM and EDX and shown to be spherical shaped nanoparticles with a diameter < 10?nm. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) for the Al2O3 NPs ranged between 125 and 1,000?µg ml?1. Exposure to NPs caused cellular membrane disruption, indicated by an increase in cellular leakage of the contents. Biofilm inhibition was 11.64 to 70.2%, whereas attachment of bacteria to polystyrene surfaces was reduced to 48.8 to 51.9% in the presence of NPs. Nanoparticles also reduced extracellular polymeric substance production and the biomass of established biofilms. The data revealed the non-toxic nature of Al2O3 NPs up to a concentrations of 120?µg ml?1 in HeLa cell lines. These results demonstrate an effective and safer use of Al2O3 NPs against the MDR A. baumannii by targeting biofilm formation, adhesion and EPS production. 相似文献

Superoxide anion radical (SAR) is formed in almost all aerobic cells and it is the most abundant species generated by several enzymatic and non-enzymatic pathways in mammalian tissues, leading to unfavorable alteration of biomolecules including DNA. The SAR-modified macromolecules have been implicated in several disease states including disorders of inflammation. The SAR-induced damage to DNA showed hyperchromicity, single strand breaks, decrease in melting temperature, and modification of bases. Superoxide modified-DNA in rabbits elicited high titer antibodies and showed diverse antigens binding characteristics. The induced antibodies recognized native DNA and other nucleic acid polymers. Anti-DNA IgG from SLE sera, purified on Protein-A-Sepharose matrix, exhibited increased recognition of superoxide anion radical modified-DNA than native DNA in competitive immunoassay. The visual formation of immune complex between induced antibodies and native DNA, and between SLE anti-DNA IgG and superoxide modified-DNA, is a clear indication of property sharing between SLE autoantibodies and experimentally induced antibodies against superoxide modified-DNA. 相似文献

Spore suspensions of Aspergillus niger GCB 75, which produced 31.1 g/l citric acid from 15% sugars in molasses, were subjected to u.v.-induced mutagenesis. Among three variants, GCM 45 was found to be the best citric acid producer and was further improved by chemical mutagenesis using NTG. Out of 3 deoxy-D-glucose-resistant variants, GCM 7 was selected as the best mutant which produced 86.1 ± 1.5 g/l citric acid after 168 h of fermentation of potassium ferricyanide + H2SO4-pretreated black strap molasses (containing 150 g sugars/l) in Vogel's medium. On the basis of comparison of kinetic parameters, namely the volumetric substrate uptake rate (Q
s), and specific substrate uptake rate (q
s), the volumetric productivity, theoretical yield and specific product formation rate, it was observed that the mutants were faster growing organisms and had the ability to overproduce citric acid. 相似文献

Human parechoviruses are known to cause asymptomatic to severe clinical illness predominantly respiratory and gastroenetric infections. Despite their global prevalence, epidemiological studies have not been performed in Pakistan. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed 110 fecal specimen and found 26 (24%) positive for viral RNA with HPeV-10 (n = 3, 23%), HPeV-13 (n = 4, 31%) and HPeV-15 (n = 6, 46%) genotypes. Clinical features of patients with different HPeV genotypes were compared. All HPeV positive children were aged ≤4 years (mean 13.92 months). The male-to-female ratio was 1: 1.17 (46.2 vs 53.8%) with significant association (p = .031) to HPeV infectivity. HPeV-10 and -13 were found during summer while HPeV-15 was only detected during late winter season. Disease symptoms were more severe in children infected with HPeV-10 and -13 as compared to HPeV-15. Fever and vomiting were observed in 100% cases of HPeV-10 and -13 while only 17% patients of HPeV-15 had these complaints. Phylogenetic analyses showed that HPeV-10, -13 and -15 strains found in this study have 9–13%, 16.8% and 21.8% nucleotide divergence respectively from the prototype strains and were clustered to distinct genetic lineages. This is the first report of HPeV-15 infection in humans although first identified in rhesus macaques. The arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) motif present at the C-terminal of VP1 responsible for the viral attachment to cellular integrins was not found in all of these strains. In conclusion, these findings enhance our knowledge related to the epidemiology and genetic diversity of the HPeV in Pakistan and support the need for continued laboratory based surveillance programs especially in infants and neonatal clinical settings. Further, the parechovirus pathogenesis, cross-species transmission and disease reservoirs must be ascertained to adopt better prevention measures. 相似文献

A new series of tetrasubstituted thiophene analogues (4a-4f, 5a-5f and 8a-8i) were designed incorporating the pharmacophoric features of COX-1 (as in fenamates), 5-LOX and the p38 MAP kinase inhibitors. The designed series was synthesized by nucleophilic addition of aryl/aroylisothiocyanate and enamine (2) yielding the addition product l-(alpha-Carbomethoxy-beta-aminothiocrotonoyl)-aryl/aroyl amines (3/7); which on reaction with substituted phenacyl bromides gave the targeted tetrasubstituted thiophene esters (4a-4f / 8a-8i). The tetrasubstituted thiophenes esters (4a-4f ) on hydrolysis with one equivalent of potassium hydroxide solution in methanol at room temperature gave corresponding acids (5a-5f ). All the targeted compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity in carrageenin-induced rat hind paw oedema model at the doses of 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg body weight using standard drugs mefanamic acid and ibuprofen. The compounds (4c, 4e, 4f, 5f, 8a- 8i) which gave reasonable protection to the inflamed paw, eliciting good or moderate comparable anti-inflammatory activity were selected for investigating their analgesic activity using acetic acid induced writhing response test in albino mice at 10 mg/kg dose using standard drug ibuprofen and in order to arrive at possible mechanism of their anti-inflammatory activity, in vitro antioxidant nitric oxide radical scavenging assay at the concentrations of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 microg/mL were performed using standard drug ascorbic acid. 相似文献
