Contamination of cheese with pathogenic microorganisms can pose a risk to human health and result in significant economic losses. The aim of the present study was to investigate the presence of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus and to determine their antibiotic resistance patterns in traditional cheeses produced in Jolfa County. 60 samples of traditional cheese were randomly collected from shops in Jolfa County. To examine the presence of the targeted microorganisms according to national food standards, the study utilized Giolitti-Cantoni broth, Baird-Parker agar, blood agar, and Mueller-Hinton agar, as well as diagnostic and biochemical tests for bacterial species confirmation. The antibiotic resistance pattern against six antibiotics was determined. The results indicated that all samples were contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Additionally, among the Staphylococcus aureus isolates, the highest antibiotic sensitivity was to amikacin at 66.67%, while the highest resistance was to cefixime at 75%. In case of Escherichia coli, the highest antibiotic sensitivity was also to amikacin at 100%, and the highest resistance frequency for this bacterium was reported for azithromycin at 25%. The results of the present study showed that the condition of traditional cheeses in Jolfa County is highly undesirable, and awareness regarding the proper use of traditional products is essential in preventing health and treatment issues, including gastrointestinal diseases.

Bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli are the most common causes of foodborne illness. Candida tropicalis is also found in the faeces of chronic diarrhoea patients. Biofilms can form on the surfaces of living or inanimate objects. Biofilm formation contributes to various infections and makes their eradication difficult. The Nephelium mutabile plant is known to have active substances that are antibacterial, anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-mutagenic, and anti-carcinogenic. The objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness of Nephelium mutabile leaf extract in inhibiting biofilms formed by Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida tropicalis. This study used a Completely Randomized Design [CRD] with two sample groups: the sample group with the addition of Nephelium mutabile extract before biofilm formation and the group sample without any treatment. The concentration of Nephelium mutabileleaf extract for the biofilm inhibition test was 25%. Distilled water is used for negative control. Nephelium mutabile extract was most effective in inhibiting the formation of a Candida tropicalis biofilm [92.24%], and the lowest effectiveness inhibited the formation of Staphylococcus aureus biofilm [35.76%]. Nephelium mutabile leaf extract has the potential to be an antibiofilm for bacteria and fungi [Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida tropicalis].Keywords: Antibiofilm, Staphylococcus Aureus, Escherichia Coli, Candida Tropicalis, Nephelium Mutabile

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) poses an increasingly alarming threat to global public health, characterized by its escalating antibiotic resistance and heightened virulence. This dire situation necessitates the exploration of novel and hitherto uncharted targets for effective pathogen control. The primary objective of our current investigation is to identify the most promising riboswitch as a druggable target and assess its potential inhibition through both small molecules and antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) in silico. I conducted an exhaustive search for the most plausible druggable riboswitch using the RiboScan tool, subsequently subjecting its sequence to rigorous docking studies with ten distinct resveratrol derivatives through the PatchDock algorithm. In addition, we harnessed the power of ASO by designing and hybridizing five ASO sequences to silence the identified riboswitch target effectively. This comprehensive analysis pinpointed the glmS riboswitch as the most promising candidate for targeted intervention. Molecular docking results uncovered the exceptional inhibitory potential of resveratrol derivatives, with particular emphasis on ZINC000100827960, which emerged as a lead natural inhibitor. Furthermore, the ASO sequences, meticulously designed for their intended purpose, exhibited compelling efficacy in terms of hybrid free energy, RNA-RNA docking interactions, and a remarkably low probability of causing off-target effects within the human transcriptome. Taken together, our findings underscore the significant promise of both resveratrol derivatives and the ASO candidates as potent inhibitors of the glmS riboswitch in MRSA. These results warrant not only further consideration, but also rigorous experimental validation to pave the way for innovative strategies in combating the menace posed by MRSA.Keywords: Staphylococcus aureus, Methicillin resistant, riboswitch, Antisense oligonucleotides, Resveratrol, Molecular docking

This research is a type of laboratory study that was conducted with the aim of determining the antibacterial effect of Myristica fragrans on staphylococcus isolates beta lactamase producing antibiotics. The methanol extract of the plant was prepared by maceration method. The extract was filtered with Whatman No.1 paper and concentrated by rotary evaporator system. Different concentrations of 200, 100, 80, 40, 20, 10, 5, 2.5, 1.25, 0.625 of the extract were prepared in DMSO: Methanol (1:1v/v) solvent. Identification of beta-lactamase producing isolates was done by phenotypic method with cefotaxime antibiotic discs and cefotaxime / clavulanic acid combined disc. Antibacterial activity against 40 isolates of beta-lactamase-producing isolates was investigated by agar wells diffusion method. After incubation for 24 hours at 37°C, the sensitivity of bacteria was determined by measuring the diameter of the growth inhibition zone. Based on the results, out of 60 Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, 67% of isolates were beta-lactamase producers, respectively. All isolates of Staphylococcus aureus showed sensitivity to Myristica fragrans extract, and the average of minimum growth inhibition concentration to beta-lactamase-producing Staphylococcus aureus was 10 mg/ml. Due to increasing antibiotic resistance, it seems that Myristica fragrans extract can be used against beta-lactam-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains in controlling infections, and in this regard, isolation and identification of the effective substances of the plant extract it is suggested.Keywords: Staphylococcus aureus, Beta-lactamase, Myristica fragrans, Antibacterial activity

The spread of incurable diseases, especially infectious diseases caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria and certain cancers, has become a serious public health concern. Consequently, the search for potent drug scaffolds has played an essential role in drug lead discovery. The multicomponent reaction (MCR) offers a novel method for efficient synthesis. It is rapidly evolving and is important for the discovery of novel molecules. We synthesized four dihydropyrimidinone (DHPM) derivatives with the one-pot MCR method, obtaining compounds 1-4. According to the NMR spectra analyses, compound 3 is a new derivative. In this experiment, we optimized the pH of the process. Based on the results, 1-4 had yields of 66.6, 72.9, 35.9, and 69.0%, respectively, at a pH of 4. In contrast, all yields significantly rose by 79.4, 91.9, 81.7, and 84.0% at pH 5. A pH of 5 was therefore advantageous for getting a high yield from these reactions. Compound 1 showed a significant inhibition against E. coli with an MIC value of 12.5 µg/mL with moderate activity against the breast cancer cell lines T47D and 4T1. Compound 3 was the most potent against S. aureus, with an MIC value of 25 µg/mL.Keywords: Dihydropyrimidinone derivatives, Bioactivity, E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, T47D, 4T1 cell lines

Staphylococcus Aureus is an extremely dangerous infectious pathogen in the healthcare and community setting. Discovery of the right chemotherapies to treat this infection has been difficult due to the high toxicity associated with some of the most effective drugs. Computational chemistry is helping to identify potential effective drugs to treat this infection. In this study molecular docking was utilized to examine the effects of 3 different compounds on Staphylococcus aureus and HTH3E. The structure of the ligands was drawn in Chemdraw software and the molecular docking was carried out using Pyrx computational tool. Visualizations of the docking interactions with the target active site were generated via Discovery Studio. HTH3E showed the lowest binding affinity with a score of -27.105 kcal/mol. The results demonstrate that (3-amino-5-hydroxy-2-methyl-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)(5-hydroxy-1H-1λ6-thiophen-3-yl)methyl carbamic acid is a promising lead and therefore further study of this compound is warranted. The newly designed compound was also subjected to molecular dynamics study and was found to be stable and firmly fixed in the binding pocket of the receptor.

Rapid augmentation in the prevalence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Staphylococcus aureus is a worldwide threat. Advising newer antibiotics may fail to reduce the chances of the emergence of newer drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Very little shreds of evidence can be found to treat clinical MDR Staphylococcus aureus with biogenic silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in West Bengal. To prepare AgNPs biogenically using aqueous tulsi leaf extract (TLE) and also to assess its antibacterial effect upon clinical MDR Staphylococcus aureus, biogenic synthesis of the AgNPs using aqueous TLE was done, characterized those with UV-Vis Spectrophotometer, dynamic light scattering, field emission scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and evaluated the antibacterial activity against the clinical MDR Staphylococcus aureus. ANOVA followed by LSD post hoc test was used to test the differences between the OD (optical density) of different experimental sets. The biosynthesized AgNPs were spherical, monodispersed, and of smaller size (9-23 nm) with the involvement of eugenol, quercetin, and oleanolic acid present in the tulsi leaf. A significant change in OD was observed in AgNPs (prepared using TLE) treated broth compared to only tulsi leaf extract treated culture. There was a significant similarity between the efficacies of AgNPs and clindamycin (P < 0.05). Our findings propose that AgNPs synthesized using TLE were fast and efficient to ameliorate the bacterial growth, which may be used as a potent antibacterial agent for the treatment of clinical MDR Staphylococcus aureus infection in near future.Keywords: Ag Nanoparticles, Biogenic, Clindamycin, MDR, MRSA, Staphylococcus aureus, Tulsi

This paper deals with the study on the antibacterial activity of TiO2-doped Ag prepared from radiophotography wastewater. The antibacterial agent was prepared by reduction of Ag(I) in the radiophotography wastewater over TiO2 photocatalyst under UV light irradiation and characterized by EDS, XRD, SRUV, and TEM machines. The antibacterial activity in inhibiting the growth of Staphylococcus aureus was examined by counting the number of viable bacterial colonies using the TPC method. The result shows that Ag doping on TiO2 as TiO2-Ag can shift its absorption into the visible region. TiO2-Ag assigns better antibacterial activity compared to TiO2 under visible light irradiation. The efficiency of the antibacterial activity is found to be influenced by Ag loaded in the TiO2, irradiation time, and the antibacterial agent dose. The highest antibacterial activity is achieved by 100 mg/L of TiO2-Ag (2) under 3 h irradiation by visible light.

Groundnut shells (GSs) are abundant renewable by-products which have been underexploited for potential applications. Therefore, this paper reports the bioactive potential of groundnut shell extracts (GSEs) against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The GSs were ground into powder form and subjected to extraction using ethanol, ethyl acetate, and a mixture of ethanol and ethyl acetate using an electrical shaker for 6 h and 12 h; and subsequently centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 20 min. The GSEs were then qualitatively screened for phenol, quinone, saponin tannins, and flavonoids using the standard procedures. More so, antibacterial activities of these GSEs against P. aeruginosa (ATCC 29953) and S. aureus (ATCC 25923) were tested using Agar well diffusion method on Mueller-Hinton agar (MHA). Therefore, the preliminary phytochemical screening reviewed the presence of saponin, tannin, flavonoid, quinone, and phenol. And the investigation of the antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa demonstrated that S. aeureus was more sensitive to attack by the EtOH derived GSEs; whereas, P. aeruginosa was readily affected by the EtOAc GSEs. Generally, P. aeruginosa was more inhibited by these GSEs even at the lower concentrations of 25 and 12.5 mg/ mL; especially with the EtOH + EtOAc and EtOAc derived GSEs. EtOH + EtOAc GSE has potential of enhancing these bacterial inhibitionsKeywords: Sustainable feed-stock, Bioactivity, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Santaloïdes afzelii (R.Br. ex Planch.) Schellenb (Connaraceae) is used in Africa as an analgesic, aphrodisiac and in the treatment of stomachaches, muscular pains and in medico magic rites. The present study aims to identify the bioactive organic compounds from the bark and seeds of Santaloïdes afzelii collected in Korhogo in the north of Côte d’Ivoire. Microbiological testing againts Staphylococcus aureus of the hydro ethanolic crude extracts of the bark and seeds showed low activities compared to the activities of oxacillin and cefoxitin. The chemical investigations of these extracts led to the identification of gallic acid, epi-catechin and dimers of procyanidin.Keywords: Connaraceae, Dimers procyanidins, epi-Catechin, Gallic acid, Santaloïdes afzelii, Staphylococcus aureus

The review article summarizes the applications of silver nanoparticles for diverse sectors. Over the decades, nanoparticles used as dignified metals such as silver exhibited distinctive characteristics basically correlated to chemical, physical and biological property of counterparts having bulkiness. Numerous studies reported that Nanoparticles of about 100nm diameter play a crucial role in widely spread industries due to unique properties including the dimension of small particle, high surface area and quantum confinement and they dispersed without agglomeration. Decade of discoveries clearly established that shape, size and distribution of Silver nanoparticles strongly affect the electromagnetic, optical and catalytic properties, which are often an assortment of changeable synthetic methods and reducing agents with stabilizers. Generation after generation the postulates come forth about properties of silver for the ancient Greeks cook from silver pots and the old adage ‘born with a silver spoon in his mouth’ thus show that eating with a silver spoon was well-known as uncontaminated. Impregnation of metals with silver nanoparticles is a practical way to exploit the microbe aggressive properties of silver at very low cost. The nanoparticles help in targeted delivery of drugs, enhancing bioavailability, sustaining drug or gene effect in target tissues, and enhancing the stability. Implementations of silver partials in medical science and biological science have been noticed from years ago; however alteration with nanotechnology is innovative potential. Over 23% of all nanotechnology based products, diagnostic and therapeutic applications implanted with silver nanoparticles (e.g. In arthritic disease and wound healing, etc.) and widely known for their antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral effect, employed in textile fabrics and added into cosmetic products as antiseptic to overcome skin problems. Thus, Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been urbanized as an advanced artifact in the field of nanotechnology.Keywords: Antimicrobial activity, Biofilm forming, Nanosilver, Silver nanoparticles, Staphylococcus aureus

Following our interest in reaching for a molded rubber article with possible detergent contact applications, durable silver nanopowder (AgNP) is synthesized by arc discharge, then mixed with varying ratios of ethylene propylene rubber (EPR), affording novel AgNP@EPR nanocomposites. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of AgNP as well as AgNP@EPR show no trace of impurity, while scanning electron microscopy (SEM) indicates an average diameter of 50 nm for the former. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images while confirm the SEM results, show quite a few 5 nm AgNP particles lying beside some micro crumbs. Our DC arc discharge technique involves explosion of movable silver anode and static cathode by a current pulse between 5 to 10 A cm-2. A solution blending method is employed for preparation of AgNP@EPR nanocomposites. The AgNP is first dispersed in toluene using an ultrasonic homogenizer, and then thoroughly mixed with EPR in the same solvent whose removal gives nanocomposites of 2, 4, 6 and 8 vol% AgNP in EPR, showing strong antibacterial activity against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.Keywords: Antibacterial Activity, Arc discharge, Escherichia coli, Ethylene propylene rubber (EPR), Silver nanopowder, Staphylococcus aureus
