The study aims to synthesize and examine the biological activity of mono- and binuclear platinum (II) and palladium (II) complexes containing terminal and bridging nitrite ligands against the test cultures of Bacillus subtilis B4647, Aspergillus brasiliensis (niger) F679, Pseudomonas aeruginosa B8243, and Escherichia coli. Through the interaction of mononuclear platinum (II) and palladium (II) complexes, dimeric complexes having nitrite ligands were synthesized. The composition and structure of these complexes were established using elemental analysis, conductometry, potentiometry, cryoscopy, infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and X-ray fluorescence analysis. A way to coordinate nitrite ligands with the central atom was established. Antimicrobial and antifungal properties were evaluated according to the capability of the synthesized complexes to inhibit the activity of bacteria and fungi via diffusion in agar and in vitro dilution. The minimum inhibitory and bactericidal concentrations of the complexes suppressing the visible growth of microorganisms and fungi, as well as exhibiting their bactericidal effect, ranged from 62.5–125 μmol/dm3. The obtained results revealed a high activity of the palladium (II) binuclear complex of the non-electrolytic type and the platinum (II) binuclear complex of the cationic type. Unlike mononuclear complexes, palladium and platinum binuclear complexes demonstrate higher antibacterial activity. Antibacterial effectiveness exhibited by the palladium complex of the non-electrolytic type against bacteria Bacillus subtilis and Escherichia coli, as well as fungi Aspergillus niger, is more pronounced. The only exception is the antimicrobial activity of the palladium complex against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which is comparable to that of the binuclear platinum complex of the cationic type. By changing the structure of the complex, the composition and charge of the inner sphere, the number of coordination centers, as well as the nature and denticity of ligands, it is possible to achieve a higher toxic effect of the complexes against bacteria and fungi.

ZusammenfassungZentrales Bauteil des Genius® 90 Therapie Systems ist der sogenannte Genius-Tank, dem die frische Dialyseflüssigkeit entnommen und in den die verbrauchte Lösung nach der Dialyse zurückgeführt wird. Daher kommt der sicheren Aufbereitung des Systems eine besondere Bedeutung zu. Hierfür wird ein Aufbereitungsverfahren unter Verwendung von UV-Licht in Kombination mit einem chemischen Desinfektionsmittel angewendet. Ziel der hier beschriebenen Untersuchung war es, die Wirkungsbreite und Wirkungstiefe dieses Aufbereitungsverfahrens unter praxisnahen Phase-3-Bedingungen zu ermitteln. Dazu wurde das Gerät mit Mikroorganismen und Viren künstlich kontaminiert und die Wirkung der einzelnen Verfahrensschritte ermittelt. Im Gegensatz zu der üblichen Vorgehensweise praxisnaher Untersuchungen machen Aufbereitungsverfahren medizinischer Geräte unter Phase-3-Kriterien meist eine neuartige Arbeitsweise erforderlich – im Falle der hier vorgestellten Untersuchung sogar die Konstruktion eines speziellen Geräts zur Platzierung von Keimträgen im Genius-Tank. Im Ergebnis konnte gezeigt werden, dass bereits UV-Licht allein sowie in Kombination mit einem chemischen Desinfektionsmittel unter praxisnahen Bedingungen eine sichere Wirksamkeit gegen Bakterien (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) und bakterielle Sporen (Bacillus subtilis), Schimmelpilze (Aspergillus brasiliensis) und Viren (Murines Parvovirus) besitzt.

Abstract With the increase of general knowledge and the advancement of science and technology, antibacterial substances were used more than antibiotics. In our current study, the antibacterial virtues of CFO/BiOI nanocomposite were investigated due to its high importance on Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus cereus. MIC, MBC , Disk Diffusion and IC50 tests Cefalotin (CF), Amoxicillin (AMX), Gentamicin (GM), Trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole (SXT) and Ceftriaxone (CRO) antibiotics in concentration 30W, 10i, 10t , 25h and 30 were used to find the antibacterial properties of the synthesized nanocomposite, respectively. For the synthesis of nanocomposites polyethylene glycol (PEG) and sulfonic acid was used as a solvent. It is noteworthy that the synthesis was performed by heat dissolution method without the presence of surfactant. Also, various techniques such as X-Ray Diffraction(XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), High resolution mapping and Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX) have been used to determine the properties of produced nanocomposites. SEM test results showed that the formed nanoparticles were globular and their size was limited area of 22 to 34 nm. The results showed CFO / BiOI nanocomposite exhibits strong significant biological activity against Bacillus cereus. The results of MBC (Minimum Bactericidal Concentration) and MIC (Minimum Inhibition Concentration) tests for CFO/BiOI nanocomposites on bacteria were examined in the range of 0.12-0.48 mg/ml and 0.06 to 0.24 mg/ml respectively. According to the results, the minimum IC50 value was determined at a concentration of 0.061 mg/ml. On the other hand, the most resisting and susceptible bacteria in this method were Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus cereus, respectively. These findings are identical to those of a prior study on CoFe2O4 nanoparticles antibacterial properties. MBC of the nanocomposites, 50 µl from all the tubes that showed no obvious bacterial growth were distributed on BHI agar plates and incubated for 24 h at 37 ◦C. The MBC endpoint is defined as the lowest concentration which killed 98% of the bacterial population.

Generating electricity using microbial fuel cell powered by benthic mud collected from two locations in Akure was carried out. The locations were Riverbed of FUTA and Apatapiti area of Akure. This was achieved by building anode and cathode containers connected together by a salt bridge and an external circuit was made to transfer the electrons from the anode to the cathode. Bacteria and fungi were isolated from the benthic mud for eight days using standard microbiological techniques. Lactobacillus plantarum, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Enterobacter aerogenes, Trichoderma sp, Mucor sp and Alterania sp; Lactobacillus plantarum, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis, Myrothecium sp and Geotrichum candidum were bacteria and fungi isolated from the benthic mud of Apatapiti area and Riverbed of Futa, Akure respectively. This was used for the generation of electricity using unsterilized mud sample and the control setup was sterilized mud from same source. The set-up was monitored every 24hrous to determine the voltage and current generated. The pH, concentration and temperature were measured. The temperature remains constant throughout the experiment. The set-up were operated at a normal temperature of 27oC and 29oC for Riverbed of FUTA and Apatapiti area of Akure respectively. The peak voltage was between 182.5V and 192.5V and current produced from the main set-up was between 0.3A to 0.53A for Futa river bed while for Apatapiti area of Akure the peak voltage and current were 192.5V and 0.3A respectively. Higher microbial population, current and voltage were observed to be generated in River bed of Futa than Apatapiti area. The difference in the voltage and current and the control set-up shows that anaerobic microorganisms are capable of producing electricity from microbial fuel cell under appropriate conditions.

The emergence of bacterial resistance to currently available antibiotics emphasized the urgent need for new antibacterial agents. Nanotechnology-based approaches are substantially contributing to the development of effective and better-formulated antibiotics. Here, we report the synthesis of stable manganese oxide nanostructures (MnO NS) by a facile, one-step, microwave-assisted method. Asprepared MnO NS were thoroughly characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), UV-Visible spectroscopy and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). UV-Visible spectra give a sharp absorption peak at a maximum wavelength of 430 nm showed surface plasmon resonance (SPR). X-ray diffraction (XRD) profile demonstrated pure phase and crystalline nature of nanostructures. Morphological investigations by a scanning electron microscope showed good dispersity with spherical particles possessing a size range between 10–100 nm. Atomic force microscope data exhibited that the average size of MnO NS can be controlled between 25 nm to 150 nm by a three-fold increment in the amount of stabilizer (o-phenylenediamine). Antimicrobial activity of MnO NS on both gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis) and gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacterial strains showed that prepared nanostructures were effective against microorganisms. Further, this antibacterial activity was found to be dependent on nanoparticles (NPs) size and bacterial species. These were more effective against Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) as compared to Escherichia coli (E. coli). Considering the results together, this study paves the way for the formulation of similar nanostructures as effective antibiotics to kill other pathogens by a more biocompatible platform. This is the first report to synthesize the MnO NS by green approach and its antibacterial application.
