Preparation and characterization of Meta-bromo-thiolactone calcium alginate nanoparticles

Esra Kamal Eltayb et al.

Summary: This study successfully prepared calcium alginate nanoparticles (CANPs) loaded with mBTL, a quorum and virulence inhibitor for Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The synthesized CANPs showed stable nano-size particles and sustained drug release profile. The mBTL-loaded-CANPs displayed stable structure and no interaction between mBTL and polymer. The findings suggest the potential of mBTL-loaded-CANPs in alleviating infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Alginate Nanoparticles Enhance Anti-Clostridium perfringens Activity of the Leaderless Two-Peptide Enterocin DD14 and Affect Expression of Some Virulence Factors

Hassan Zgheib et al.

Summary: A novel approach was developed to improve the anti-Clostridium perfringens activity of EntDD14 by loading it onto alginate nanoparticles, resulting in a formulation with reduced minimum inhibitory concentration and no cytotoxicity in eukaryotic cells. This formulation down-regulated the expression of genes encoding clostridial toxins, suggesting a potential strategy to counteract the pathogenicity of C. perfringens.

Capsule Independent Antimicrobial Activity Induced by Nanochitosan against Streptococcus pneumoniae

Fulwah Y. Alqahtani et al.

Summary: This study prepared polymeric nanoparticles (CNPs) with wide-spectrum antimicrobial activity against Streptococcus pneumoniae TIGR4 and its capsular mutant. The CNPs showed concentration-dependent reduction in bacterial hemolysis and were cytocompatible at lower concentrations, suggesting their potential in treating pneumococcal diseases.
