Anti-biofilm Effects of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Synthesized by Leaf Extract of Typha Latifolia on Biofilm Gene Expression in Multidrug-Resistant Klebsiella Pneumoniae Strains: A Laboratory Study
Background and Objectives: Biofilms are a community of bacteria on surfaces coated with extracellular polymeric materials, and one strategy to remove biofilms is to use nanoparticles. The aim of this study was to synthesize green zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles and determine its anti-biofilm effects on biofilm gene expression in multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains. Materials and M...
متن کاملAntibacterial and anti-biofilm effects of microwave-assisted biologically synthesized zinc nanoparticles
Objective(s): The present study aimed to investigate the antibacterial and anti-biofilm potential of the non-oxidized form of zinc nanoparticles (Zn NPs) prepared by a ‘green approach’ using the Lavandula vera extract with microwave irradiation.Materials and Methods: After synthesis of Zn NPs, the microdilution and disk diffusion methods was applied for antimicrobial evaluation followed b...
متن کاملEvaluation of Anti biofilm and Antibiotic Potentiation Activities of Silver Nanoparticles Against some Nosocomial Pathogens
Nowadays silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are used as antimicrobial due to its well known physical, chemical, and biological properties. A large collection of bacterial cells adhering to a surface is called bacterial biofilm. Exposure to silver nano particles (AgNPs) may prevent colonization of new bacteria onto the biofilm. In the present work, we have investigated whether the biofilm format...
