AbstractThe bacteriocidal properties of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) depend on their average diameter (toxicity increases with decreasing diameter). In the present work, we describe novel green chemistry biosynthesis of AgNPs from AgNO3 added to cell-free culture medium of baker’s yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, yielding nanoparticles in the range 11–25 nm. However, when yeast was grown in a moderate static magnetic field, AgNPs obtained from the resulting cell-free culture medium, were significantly smaller (2–12 nm) than those obtained without magnetic field. These latter nanoparticles were highly crystalline, stable and near-uniform shape. Furthermore, the antibacterial activity of AgNPs obtained from static magnetic fields were greater than those from control cultures. Static magnetic fields show a promising ability to generate biocidal nanoparticles via this novel green chemistry approach.

The effect of static magnetic field (MF) on the growth and biochemical indices of five fungal genera were studied. Exposing the above genera to the northern pole, southern pole and both poles and their influences were compared with the control treatment (without MF energy). The static MF of 10 gauss was applied to the above fungal genera for seven days at 28°C. The effect of static MF energy on the growth of fungal genera on solid media Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) and Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) was classified as stimulatory, inhibitory and no observable effect on growth of fungal genera. The effects of MF poles (southern, northern and both) inhibited the growth of Fusarium oxysporum, while the MF poles stimulated the growth of fungal genera (Aspergillus niger, Alternaria alternate and Penicillium chrysogenium) and had no observable effect of southern pole and both poles on growth of Rhizopus oryzae, while the northern pole inhibited the growth of R. oryzae compared with control group by measuring the growth diameter (cm). The effects of MF poles on the biochemical indices of the fungal genera were performed by filtering the growth and measuring the enzyme activity in the filterate. Exposing the fungal genera to the northern pole, southern pole. The fungal genera were influenced by MF energy for 3 days at 28°C and pH6.5 showed increased in the activities of amylase and protease due to northern pole at significant difference (at the 0.05 levels), the northern pole increased amylase activity (U/ml) in the culture medium filteratedof P. chrysogenumup to (0.246 U/ml) higher than other mentioned genera, A. niger, F. oxysporum, R. oryzae and A. alternata 0.172, 0.146, 0.116, 0.105U/ml respectively. The northern pole increased protease activity (U/ml) in the culture filterate of P. chrysogenumup to (0.081 U/ml) higher than other mentioned genera, A. niger, A. alternata , R. oryzae and F. oxysporum 0.08, 0.074, 0.056,0.054U/ml respectively and decreased when treated with southern pole however it was higher than the control treatment under optimum condition.

Sodium fluoride solution was injected i.p. to three groups of rats at a dose equivalent to 0.1 LD50 three times a week up to 18 injections. Two out of these groups and two out of three groups were sham-injected with normal saline and were exposed to the whole body impact of a 25 mT static magnetic field (SMF) for 2 or 4 hr a day, 5 times a week. Following the exposure, various functional and biochemical indices were evaluated along with histological examination and morphometric measurements of the femur in the differently exposed and control rats. The mathematical analysis of the combined effects of the SMF and fluoride based on the a response surface model demonstrated that, in full correspondence with what we had previously found for the combined toxicity of different chemicals, the combined adverse action of a chemical plus a physical agent was characterized by a tipological diversity depending not only on particular effects these types were assessed for but on the dose and effect levels as well. From this point of view, the indices for which at least one statistically significant effect was observed could be classified as identifying (I) mainly single-factor action; (II) additive unidirectional action; (III) synergism (superadditive unidirectional action); (IV) antagonism, including both subadditive unidirectional action and all variants of contradirectional action.
