Evaluation 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...
متن کاملSynthesis and Charaterization of Magensium Oxide Mesoporous Microstructures Using Pluronic F127
Mesoporous MgO microstructures were synthesized using magnesium acetate tetrahydrate, ammonium oxalate monohydrate and Pluronic F127 via heating at 40 °C for 24 h and subsequent calcination. The mesoporous structure of magnesium oxide with the specific surface area of 47m2 /g, pore volume 0.30 cm3 /g and the average pore size 24 nm is produced. According to ...
متن کاملPeptide mapping by capillary electrophoresis with Pluronic F127.
Separation of peptides and proteins by capillary zone electrophoresis suffers from the interaction of these solutes with the capillary wall which results in the formation of broad peaks and low resolution. To minimize the protein/peptide-capillary wall interaction we tried to use Pluronic F127, a triblock copolymer of the general formula (polyethylene oxide)(x)(polypropylene oxide)(y)(polyethyl...
متن کاملDevelopment of Cefotaxime Impregnated Chitosan as Nano-antibiotics: De Novo Strategy to Combat Biofilm Forming Multi-drug Resistant Pathogens
Frequent incidents of antibiotic-resistant biofilm forming pathogens in community-associated and hospital-acquired infections have become a global concern owing to failure of conventional therapies. Nano-antibiotics (NABs) are de novo tools to overcome the multi-drug resistant mechanisms employed by the superbugs. Inhibition of biofilm formation is one of those strategies to curb multi drug res...
متن کاملPhysicochemical Characterization and Dissolution Studies of Solid Dispersions of Clotrimazole with Pluronic F127
Purpose: To evaluate the physicochemical properties of clotrimazole (CLT) solid dispersion with Pluronic F127 (PLU). Methods: Solid dispersions of the antifungal drug, clotrimazole, were prepared with Pluronic F127 using grinding (PM) and fusion (FUS) methods. Physicochemical characterization of the dispersions were performed using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), x-ray powder diffracti...
