Abstract Nanotechnology is a capable approach to enhance the activity of common antimicrobial agent mainly used in human and veterinary drug. Gentamycin is a broad-spectrum antibacterial against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The study aims to determine the characterization and the biological activity of gentamicin in the Nano-form prepared by Sol-gel application using an ultrasound device by aqueous solution at temperature (80)0C. Nano gentamycin examined by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and antibacterial effect of both Nano and stander gentamycin were analyzed. The results showed that the average size of gentamycin nanoparticles was 68.51 nanometers with homogeneous distribution. The EDX showed large number of elements present in the Nano solution. The antibacterial effect of Nano gentamycin took a wide inhibition range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria compared to the standard substance, where the inhibition diameter for E.coli was 29 mm, and for St. epidermidis was 27 mm. The MIC of gentamicin nanostructures was the concentration 0.00125 mg/ml.

Introduction: Many multi-resistant patogens appear continuously resulting in a permanent need for the development of novel antibiotics. A large number of antibiotics introduced in clinical and veterinary practices are not effective. Antibacterial peptides with unusual mode of action may represent a promising option against multi-resistant pathogens. The entomopathogenic Xenorhabdus budapestensis bacteria produce several different antimicrobial peptides compounds such as bicornutin-A and fabclavin. Aim: The aim of the authors was to evaluate the in vitro antibacterial effect of Xenorhabdus budapestensis using zoonotic patogen bacteria. Method: Cell-free conditioned media and purified peptide fractions of Xenorhabdus budapestensis were tested on Gram-positive (Rhodococcus equi, Erysipelothrix rhusiopathia, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus equi, Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis, Listeria monocytagenes) and Gram-negative bacteria (Salmonella gallinarum, Salmonella derbi, Bordatella bronchoseptica, Escherichia coli, Pasteurella multocida, Aeromonas hydrophila) using agar diffusion test on blood agar plates. Results: It was found that Xenorhabdus budapestensis bacteria produced compounds with strong and dose-dependent effects on the tested organisms. Purified peptid fraction exerted a more marked effect than cell free conditioned media. Gram-positive bacteria were more sensitive to this antibacterial effect than Gram-negative bacteria. Conclusions: Antibacterial peptide compound from Xenorhabdus budapestensis exert marked antibacterial effect on zoonotic patogen bacteria and they should be further evaluated in future for their potential use in the control or prevention of zoonoses.

Analysis of the decayed apples (van. Starking delicious), collected from the localmarket, for patulin mycotoxin, using column chromotography and TLC Plates showedthat the presence of the amount of patulin mycotoxin in the mouldy tissues (1.3 , 2.5 ,3.4 , 4.2, 5.5, and 6.4 ) cm in diameters were (5.1, 5.8, 6.3, 10.5, 12.3, and 14 ) μgpatulin/g moldy tissues respectively. According to this research also, Patulinmycotoxin could diffused to the surrounding mouldy tissues. It is found that (0.5and0.2), (1.0 and 0.5), and (1.5 and 0.5) μg patulin/g tissues in the first and secondcentimeters after mouldy tissues 4.2, 5.5 and 6.4 cm respectively, this phenomenondue to the presence of intracellular spaces in the tissues which allow to patulin todiffuse from mouldy to the healthy tissues there was no patulin found in the othersurrounding healthy tissues. Gram positive bacteria found to be more susceptible topatulin, the zone of inhibition against Staphyllococcus aureus was 10 to 11 mm indiameter at concentration 10 and 30 mg /ml respectively when compared with 0.3μg/ml streptomycin and 0.06 μg/ml ciprofloxacin while no inhibitory effect foundagainst Gram negative bacteria Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli
