Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from curd has emerged as a welcome source of antimicrobials and therapeutics and is accepted as probiotics. Probiotics have been associated with improved healing of intestinal ulcers and healing of infected cutaneous wounds. Therefore this current study was undertaken to assess the antibacterial, antioxidant, minimum inhibitory concentration and cytotoxicity efficacy of Lactobacilli isolated from spoiled curd sample. The bacteria was isolated using serial dilution method and the antagonistic properties of these isolates against Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were examined using agar well diffusion method. Amongst the 8 isolates, C3 exhibited the highest antibacterial activity against all the pathogens. It was then tested for antioxidant property using DPPH assay and also found wound healing property using 3T3 cell line. This review points to a new perspective and therapeutic potential of beneficial probiotic species as a safe alternative approach for treatment of patients affected by cutaneous wounds.

Epidemiologic studies demonstrate that vegetable consumption decreases the risk of various types of cancers. Crucifers were found to have anti-cancer and antioxidant activities due to their enriched content of glycosylates. Nanotechnology is the design, characterization, production & application of structures, devices, and systems by controlling shape and size at the nanoscale. This work describes a novel combinatorial synthesis approach, which is rapid and simple for the synthesis of metallic nanostructures of novel metals such as silver (Ag) by using a “comparison study of Conventional method (CM) and Microwave (MW) synthesis” method of silver nanoparticles. By the current study, we describe a cost-effective and environment-friendly technique for green synthesis of silver nanoparticles through the extract of Broccoli. AgNPs characterized using UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy was used to monitor the quantitative formation of silver nanoparticles. The characteristics features of the obtained silver nanoparticles were studied using a Scanning electron microscope (SEM), Transmission electron microscope (TEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Here, we have reported a simple biological and low-cost approach for the preparation of stable silver nanoparticles by bioreduction of silver nitrate solution using Brassica oleracea (Broccoli) aqueous extract. The in-vitro analysis was performed in HEp 2 cell lines against which anti-cancer activity was recorded. Additionally, the antioxidant activity was also found by estimating the antioxidant enzymes. The in vivo toxicity was performed using chick embryos. The important outcome of the study will be the development of value-added products from cruciferous plants like B. oleracea for nanotechnology-based industries.

Ficus carica L. or the common name is red figs that belong to the Moraceae family or the Mulberry family. Every part of the fruit or the tree has been able to treat different types of common diseases, for example, it is used as a natural laxative or a supplementary food for diabetes. Thus, this research uses four different solvents, ethyl acetate, ethanol, hexane, and water, to obtain the respective crude extracts in order to investigate the anti-diabetic properties by determining the inhibition of the activity of the diabetic enzymes, α-amylase, and α-glucosidase; and the DPPH assay determines the antioxidant activity while qualitative phytochemical screening was for phenols, alkaloids, tannins, saponins, and flavonoids; total quantitative phenolic and total flavonoid content was done. The phytochemical screening showed the presence of the compounds tested in different types of crude extracts. For the total phenolic content, ethyl acetate extract exhibits the highest content. In contrast, hexane extract shows the highest total flavonoid content. For the DPPH assay, ethyl acetate extract has the highest scavenging activity at 13.351 µg/mL with corresponding with the data of total phenolic content. For the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, water extract has the lowest IC50 value among the four extracts but higher value than the standard. For α-amylase inhibitory activity, only ethanol extract showed the IC50 value, but it was a high value. In conclusion, there is potential for figs to be a natural source of medicine, and the extracts tested can be used for future studies.

Keratin, which made up the chicken feather, is difficult to be broken down by the proteolytic enzyme. Annually, millions of tons of chicken feathers are disposed of worldwide as waste without realizing the high protein content in the feather. Due to the presence of keratinase from keratinolytic bacteria, chicken feathers are disposed of together with poultry excreta. Therefore, this study is conducted to study the ability of liquid protein hydrolysate produced by bacteria in poultry excreta to utilize into biofertilizing and biocontrol. Keratinolytic bacteria are identified from poultry excreta by screening. The isolated enzyme was optimized in various conditions such as different pH, temperature, and feather concentration as well as nitrogen and carbon sources. Enzymatic activity increased gradually from 1% to 5% in carbon and nitrogen sources. Liquid protein hydrolysate was used to study the biofertilizing ability on the growth of Cucumis sativus and antibacterial effect on Escherichia coli. Pseudomonas sp. has the capability to degrade the feather on 10th day due to the high enzymatic activity. Pseudomonas sp. shows high enzymatic activity at 37⁰C, pH 8, and feather concentration at 0.5%. The chlorophyll estimation shows a p-value<0.05 after being treated with liquid protein hydrolysate. Liquid protein hydrolysate promoted the growth of Cucumis sativus as well as Pseudomonas sp. The antibacterial properties can also be seen against Escherichia coli. In a nutshell, chicken feather produces liquid protein hydrolysate, which has biofertilizing properties. The full potential of liquid hydrolysate can be understood with further analysis of peptide in protein hydrolysate.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease which spreads promptly through multiple means. The viral disease in humans was first identified in Wuhan, the capital of Hubei, China. This contagious disease created a great impact and consumed the lives of many in different parts of the world. A virus gets transmitted mostly in close contact with the infected individuals, either through respiratory droplets or through handling the contaminated surface. Several attempts have been made by the researchers, and there are no vaccines developed yet. Currently, plasma from the survived individuals is used to support the infected individuals to fight against infections in many developed countries. Therefore this review focuses on the Indian medicinal plants, particularly Neem (Azadirachta indica), Pepper (Piper nigrum), Turmeric (Curcuma longa), Gale of wind (Phyllanthus amarus), etc., which has a good antiviral property. These medicinal plants are used in ancient medicines to treat diseases like Dengue virus, Hepatitis B virus, and so on. Uptake of these medicinal plants in combinations may help people to prevent them against the deadly disease and boost up their immunity.

Un-treated wastewater can contaminate surface water and harm huge amounts of life. Toxic compounds like pesticides in the wastewater can seriously disrupt aquatic ecosystems also, so there is a necessity to monitor their components. It is very important to determine these pesticides at trace levels in wastewater with an updated method. A modified liquid-liquid extraction process for micro-quantitative determination of multiclass multi-residues in surface wastewater samples of organo-chlorine (OCPs), organo-phosphorus (OPPs), synthetic pyrethroids and other pesticides by using GC-MS and GC-ECD has been established. The important method validation parameters, like the limit of detection and limit of quantification, linearity, accuracy, precision, specificity, were evaluated as per standard guidelines. The percent recovery ranged from 84.3 to 111, with an acceptable coefficient of variation (RSD) of 1.8 to 15.4%. The linearity showed a reliable range (0.995–0.999). Validated methods have been finally applied to field wastewater samples, and a significant number of water samples found to be contaminated with targeted pesticides. So, surface water pollution with special reference to pesticides has to be monitored on a regular basis has been discussed.

Antibacterial activity of honey obtained from an apiculture farm was tested on Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogens isolated from wound pus was observed. Agar well diffusion method was used to determine the antibacterial activity of honey on the test organisms. Moreover, the result was that the honey sample had heavy antibacterial activities against the test organisms, which was revealed by the zone of inhibition obtained. The antibacterial activity increased with the increase in concentrations of honey and showed a clear zone for both organisms. Therefore honey can be accepted as an antibacterial agent for the treatment of wounds, burns, bedsores, and ulcers.
