Wound Dressing Scaffold with High Anti-biofilm Performance Based on Ciprofloxacin-Loaded Chitosan-Hydrolyzed Starch Nanocomposite: In Vitro and In Vivo Study
This study is aimed at developing novel chitosan (CS)-hydrolyzed starch nanocomposite (HS/Ch-NC) loaded with ciprofloxacin to enhance its skin retention and wound healing efficacy and anti-biofilm efficacy. Drug-loading on the (HS/Ch-NC) and encapsulation efficiency was 55.2% and 97.2%, respectively. The activity of HS-NC loaded with ciprofloxacin as anti-biofilm activity by 72% and 63% against Enterobacter aerogenes and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, respectively. The obtained (HS/Ch-NC) loaded with ciprofloxacin is a promising candidate for the development of improved bandage materials, as cell viability and proliferation was a...

Intimate coupling of gC < sub > 3 < /sub > N < sub > 4 < /sub > /CdS semiconductor on eco-friendly biocarrier loofah sponge for enhanced detoxification of ciprofloxacin
This study deals with the intimately coupled photocatalysis and biodegradation (ICPB) of ciprofloxacin using gC3N4/CdS photocatalytic semiconductor and eco-friendly renewable loofah sponge as biocarrier in the ICPB. The photocatalyst gC3N4/CdS was prepared and their synergistic photocatalytic degradation of ciprofloxacin were assessed and the results shows that gC3N4/CdS (20%) exhibit 79% degradation efficiency in 36 h. Further ICPB exhibited enhanced ciprofloxacin degradation 95% at 36 h. The 62.4% and 81.1% of chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal was obtained in the photocatalysis and ICPB respectively. Enhanced degradat...

Quantifying patient- and hospital-level antimicrobial resistance dynamics in < em > Staphylococcus aureus < /em > from routinely collected data
Conclusion. Within this routinely collected dataset, we found that 65 % of changes in resistance within a patient's S. aureus population could not be explained by antibiotic exposure or between-patient transmission of bacteria, suggesting that within-host evolution via frequent gain and loss of AMR genes may be responsible for these changing AMR profiles. Our study highlights the value of exploring existing routine surveillance data to determine underlying mechanisms of AMR. These insights may substantially improve our understanding of the importance of antibiotic exposure variation, and the success of single S. aureus clo...

Enhancement of anaerobic digestion of ciprofloxacin wastewater by nano zero-valent iron immobilized onto biochar
Bioresour Technol. 2023 Jul 8:129462. doi: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.129462. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe commonly used antibiotic ciprofloxacin (CIP) can significantly inhibit and interfere with the anaerobic digestion (AD) performance. This work was developed to explore the effectiveness and feasibility of nano iron-carbon composites to simultaneously enhance methane production and CIP removal during AD under CIP stress. The results demonstrated that when the nano-zero-valent iron (nZVI) content immobilized on biochar (BC) was 33% (nZVI/BC-33), the CIP degradation efficiency reached 87% and the methanogenesis reached ...

Environ Res. 2023 Jul 7:116554. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.116554. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe detection of efficacious and environment-friendly nanomaterials with prominent photocatalytic performance is crucial for the detoxification of antibiotics in wastewater. Herein, a dual-S-scheme Bi5O7I/Cd0.5Zn0.5S/CuO semiconductor was designed and fabricated via a simple approach to degrade tetracycline (TC) and other types of antibiotics under LED illumination. However, Cd0.5Zn0.5S and CuO nanoparticles were decorated on the surface of the Bi5O7I microsphere to create a dual-S-scheme system that stimulates visible-light ut...
