Abstract:
Nanotubes (NT) composed of the electrically active polymer poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) have been used for photothermal ablation of both gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria. Since infrared absorption of PEDOT is dominated by bipolarons strongly coupled to phonons, we hypothesize that nonradiative decay of these states leads to heat generation. Photothermal death of bacteria by PEDOT NT was compared to single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT). Complete eradication of bacterial colonies incubated with 100 ug/ml of either PEDOT NT or SWNT occurred with a single exposure to 1064 nm light (3.8 W/cm2) for 60 s. PEDOT NT were also shown to elicit a mild antibacterial response upon incubation with bacteria and no infrared exposure. PEDOT NT have the same capacity for photothermal ablation of bacteria as compared to SWNT; therefore, they represent an exciting new class of polymer based nanoparticles for medically-relevant photothermal therapies.

Abstract:
Anti-bacterial and biodegradation activities of Poly (lactic acid) (PLA) and wood flour/PLA composites (WPLA) were investigated for the effect of anti-bacterial agent addition. Silver substituted Zeolite (commercially designated as Zeomic) was used as anti-bacterial agent in this study. Anti-bacterial activities were investigated through dynamic shake flask method accompanying with plate count agar (PCA) technique, against Staphylococcus aureus as testing bacteria. The results of anti-bacterial activity were reported by viable cell count. For biodegradation test, the degree and rate of biodegradations were evaluated from percentage of carbon conversion, the test being carried out under laboratory controlled-aerobic degradation environment at a temperature of 58±2°C. The results found that addition of Zeomic did not perform anti-bacterial activities for both the neat PLA and WPLA due to non-diffusivity of silver in Zeomic. For biodegradation test, both PLA and WPLA samples during incubation times of 21-60 days had shown considerable biodegradation rates as a result of chain scission by hydrolysis reaction and subsequent enzymatic-biodegradation by microorganism of PLA molecules. Regarding the effect of wood and Zeomic addition, it was found that introducing wood and Zeomic in PLA matrix tended to markedly increase the degree and rate of biodegradation of PLA and WPLA materials, whereby the PLA having 10%wt of wood with 1.5%wt of Zeomic had the most satisfactory biodegradation level and rate as a consequence of accelerated hydrolysis degradation from moisture in wood and Zeomic.

Abstract:
The aim of this study is to investigate the biopotency of methanolic extracts of Vitex mollis, Psidium guajava, Dalbergia retusa, and Crescential alata leaves against various staphylococcal strains isolated from cattle and rabbits. Methicillin-resistant S. aureus strains were isolated from cattle, while other strains were isolated from rabbits using standard methodology. The total phytochemical phenolic and saponins contents were obtained being the main groups of the antinutritional factors. The antimicrobial activity of the extracts against the standard culture of S. aureus (control) and S. aureus isolated from cattle and rabbits were investigated comparatively relative to that of oxacillin. It was found that both the control S. aureus and the isolated S. aureus are susceptible to all the four plant extracts, and sensitive to oxacillin. Of all the S. aureus including the control, MRSA2 is the most susceptible to all the extracts at 1000 μg/mL, except that of V. mollis where it is the least susceptible. Among all the plant extracts, P. guajava is the most active against MRSA2 and SOSA2. Therefore, the isolates from cattle (MRSA1 and MRSA2) are more susceptible to all the plant extracts than the isolates from rabbits. Among all the rabbit isolates, CoNS3 is the least susceptible to the extracts. Since all the plant extracts exhibit remarkable inhibitory activities against all the S. aureus strains, they are promising towards the production of therapeutic drugs.

Acne is a common skin problem and usually appears in many teenagers and young adults with hormone imbalance, bacterial infection, food or cosmetic application. Plectranthus amboinicus is a plant of the Lamiaceae family. The heavy and strong scent of P. amboinicus has been used for centuries in perfumes, and more recently in insect repellents, and alternative medicines. Most of pharmacological studies indicated that the essential oil from P. amboinicus has modulatory effect on gastrointestinal tract, antibacterial activity, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect. In this research, we aimed to isolate the polyphenols, instead of the essential oil, from the leaves of P. amboinicus and to test its therapeutic effects on acne. The total polyphenol concentrations and in vitro antioxidant activity in crude ethanol extract, n-hexane layer, methanol layer, n-butanol layer, and water layer, were investigated. We found the methanol layer, exhibited the highest total phenol content (167.79 ± 12.67 mg of gallic acid/mg of dry weight), DPPH and ABTS+ radical cation scavenging activities (IC50=27 ± 2 mg/mL and 21 ± 2 mg/mL, respectively) and Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC=0.38 μg TE /μg). However, the other three layers showed no or little activity to scavenge DPPH and ABTS. Furthermore, the crude ethanol extract and the methanol layer were tested for anti-bacterial activity against Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus aureus, which have been recognized as pus-forming bacteria triggering an inflammation in acne. Disc diffusion and broth microdilution were employed. Disc diffusion method showed that the 5 mg methanol layer exhibited 23 mm of inhibition zones against P. acnes, respectively. Crude ethanol extract did not show clear inhibition zone. The MIC values against Staphylococcus aureus for crude ethanol extract and methanol layer were 2.5 mg/mL and 0.3 mg/mL, respectively. On the other hand, the MIC values against Propionibacterium acnes were about 2 mg/mL and 0.3 mg/mL for crude ethanol extract and methanol layer, respectively. The anti-inflammatory effects of crude ethanol extract and the methanol layer were examined in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells. The methanol layer with the highest phenolic content, exhibited dose-dependent inhibitory effect against LPS-mediated nitric oxide (NO) release, without affecting cell viability in RAW264.7 macrophages. The methanol layer also significantly downregulated the expression of LPS-induced protein expression of iNOS (inducible NO synthase) and COX-2 (cyclooxygenase-2); while upregulated HO-1 (heme oxygenase-1) expression. To sum up, the methanol layer of P. amboinicus may serve as an attractive candidate in complementary and alternative medicine for the treatment of acne.

Abstract:
Medicinal plants are a great source of medicine for treating various human ailments. Traditional use of herbal medicine, which was developed within an ethnic group before the development and spread of modern science, is the very basis and an integral part of various cultures. Different medicinal systems throughout the globe are still operational and use natural herbs for treating diseases. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Ayurveda, Kampo, Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), and Unani are some commonly found traditional medicinal systems in use today. They are used directly, or their secondary metabolites are used as anti-bacterial, antifungal, immunomodulators, anti-hair fall, and multiple other purposes. However, their blood purification properties prevent blood from toxicity. Hundreds of medicinal plants are used in Ayurveda for blood purification, particularly plants which are astringent or bitter (pungent or sharp tastes). In addition, medicinal herbs do not have side effects.

Abstract:
Propionibacterium freudenreichii is a Gram-positive dairy probiotic bacterial species that has been used as a ripening starter in the production of Swiss-type cheese for a long time. It has been exploited for the optimization of cheese production, including ripening capacities and aroma compounds production, but also for the production of vitamin B12 and organic acids. Furthermore, it has emerged in the probiotics landscape owing to several beneficial traits, including tolerance to stress in the gastrointestinal tract, adhesion to host cells, anti-pathogenic activity, anticancer potential and immunomodulatory properties. These beneficial properties have been confirmed with in vitro and in vivo investigations, using several omics approaches that allowed the identification of important molecular actors, such as surface proteins, short-chain fatty acids and bifidogenic factors. The diversity within the species was shown to be an important aspect to take into consideration, since many of these properties were strain-dependent. New studies should dive further into the molecular mechanisms related to the beneficial properties of this species and of its products, while considering the complexities of strain diversity and the interactions with the host and its microbiota. This chapter reviews current knowledge on the possible impact of P. freudenreichii on human health.

The microfluidics-delivered nanohybrids invest the framework with an arranged course from wound discovery, receptive oxygen species rummaging and drug release. The drug release conduct mirrors the dynamic wound healing process, hence rendering an upgraded bio-mimetic regeneration. The properties of nanomaterials that are 1– 100 nm in size can be controlled to influence their capacities while connecting with biomaterials and biomedicines. Among the different sorts of nanomaterials, the clay minerals are universal in soils and viewed as protected materials for use in medicinal applications. Anti-bacterial activity is a vital factor for wound healing. Re-epithelization happens amid wound healing and includes the expansion of keratinocytes and the separation of fibroblasts. Ongoing improvements in nanotechnology for blending nanometer-estimate materials may give a chance to empowering viable wound healing because of material surface collaboration with cells and tissue.

Abstract:
Chronic liver disease and decompensated cirrhosis are the major causes of morbidity and mortality in the world. According to current data, deaths due to liver cirrhosis constitute 2.4% of the total deaths worldwide. Cirrhosis is characterized by hepatocellular damage that leads to fibrosis and regenerative nodules in the liver. The most common causes of cirrhosis include alcohol consumption, hepatitis C, hepatitis B, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Dysbiosis and intestinal bacterial overgrowth play a role in the development of complications of cirrhosis through translocation. In liver cirrhosis, ascites, gastrointestinal variceal bleeding, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis infection, hepatic encephalopathy, hepatorenal syndrome, hepatocelluler carcinoma are the most common complications. In addition, there are refractory ascites, hyponatremia, acute on-chronic liver failure, relative adrenal insufficiency, cirrhotic cardiomyopathy, hepatopulmonary syndrome and portopulmonary hypertension. In the primary prophylaxis of variceal bleeding, non-selective beta blockers or endoscopic variceal ligation are recommended for medium and large variceal veins. In current medical treatment, vasoactive agents, antibiotics, blood transfusion, endoscopic band ligation are the standard approach in the treatment of acute variceal bleeding. Sodium-restricted diet, diuretics and large-volume paracentesis are recommended in the management of ascites. In the treatment of hepatic encephalopathy, lactulose, branched chain amino acids, rifaximin and L-ornithine L-aspartate can be used. New therapeutic approaches such as ornithine phenyl acetate spherical carbon and fecal microbiota transplantation have shown beneficial effects on hepatic encephalopathy symptoms. In addition to their antioxidative, anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory properties, statins have been shown to reduce the risk of decompensation and death by reducing portal pressure in compensated cirrhosis. In the treatment of liver failure, some artificial liver devices such as molecular adsorbent recirculating system, the single albumin dialysis system, fractionated plasma separation and adsorption are used until transplantation or regeneration. The purpose of this chapter is to review the most up-to-date information on liver cirrhosis and to explain the complications assessment, current management and potential treatment strategies in decompensated cirrhosis.

Abstract:
From acidic NiP electroless bath, the co-deposition of TiNi nanoparticles in the NiP matrix to form novel NiP-TiNi nanocomposite coatings (NCCs) on top of API X100 carbon steel using several concentrations of TiNi nanoparticles (0.2, 0.4 and 0.8 g L-1 in the bath) is successfully achieved. The influence of the TiNi nanoparticles on the composition, deposition rate, thickness, and morphology of the NiP coating are investigated before and after annealing at 400 oC. The addition of TiNi nanoparticles into the NiP matrix led to the transform of the amorphous structure of the as-plated NiP into a semi-crystalline one. The microhardness of the composite coating significantly enhances with increasing TiNi concentration up to 0.4 g L-1 and further improvement takes place after heat treatment. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and the colony counting method are carried out to assess the corrosion protection and antibacterial properties, respectively, of the as-deposited and the annealed coatings. The results demonstrate that there is an optimum concentration for the addition of TiNi (0.4 g L-1), which offers the composite coating with the highest corrosion protection that reaches to about 98 %. Below and beyond this concentration as well as after heat treatment, the improvement in the corrosion protection of the composite coatings slightly decreases. Besides, the NiP–TiNi NCCs have effective antibacterial properties as it decreased the cell viability of Escherichia coli from 100 to 19%.

Abstract:
A novel woven textile material capable of generating stable low temperature plasma was created. This resulted in enhancing the capture efficiency of nanoparticles when the material was used as a filter as well as exhibiting anti-bacterial properties. The primary supposition of the study is that a micro-plasma array can be embedded into a textile fabric to induce a plasma sheath that filters and deactivates bacterial pathogens coming into contact with the fabric. The work proceeded through a series of steps: (1) determining the optimal type of plasma discharge; (2) finding the ideal wire electrode material, radii and placement to achieve stable uniform generation of non-thermal plasmas; (3) modeling the electric field surrounding the electrodes to evaluate the impact of an insulating textile on the electrode system; (4) testing various polymers and developing a plasma textile based on electrode geometries found in experimentation; (5) measuring the filtration efficiencies of the plasmas using a differential mobility and a condensation particle counter; and (6) testing the textile fabric’s ability to deactivate bacteria. The work confirmed the existence of sustainable, uniform plasma on the surface of the developed fabric capable of capturing over 98% of bacteria-sized particles and deactivating tested bacteria.

Abstract:
Carbon steel piping can be exposed to environments that contain various chemical and organic elements that induce corrosion and cracking events. This can lead to the loss of fluid into surrounding sensitive and remote environments. To minimize this inherent risk, various coating technologies have been utilized over the years in industry. These coatings typically suffer from complex application methods, high application cost, and vulnerabilities to environmental effects such as mechanical damage and cathodic disbondment. To overcome these challenges, a novel epoxy based composite coating that utilizes the properties of various nano-particulates such as graphene nanoplatelets (GnP), multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), chitosan, and hBN (Hexagonal boron nitride) is developed. These nanoparticles create a nano-scale “brick and mortar” type effect that is analogous to various natural structures such as the abalone shell (nacre). These nano-structures also enhance coating performance by increasing mechanical strength and anti-bacterial properties while simultaneously decreasing gas permeability. This performance enhancement serves to reduce overall corrosion-induced disbondment area. The dispersion of nanoparticles is verified using various microscopy methods such as scanning election microscopy and an optical 3D profilometer. To confirm the role of nanoparticles in the epoxy composite, the samples undergo rigorous testing to determine both mechanical properties as well as the feasibility of coating application, in particular, for use on girth welds. Using a dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), the material strength of each combination of nanocomposites is tested and used to determine the glass transition temperature. The testing also includes abrasion, and both long-term mechanical and thermal behaviors of the coating. To test the feasibility of the coating, cathodic protection tests in an accelerated corrosive environment, and gas permeability tests are carried out. The results show that the composite coating made from these nanomaterials had a decrease in cathodic disbondment area and gas permeability and an increase the glass transition temperature and scratch resistance. Therefore, the nanocomposite coatings are found to be a significant improvement over standard epoxy-based coating.
