ULUSU, Funda; OZEL, Sultan Suleyman; Sarilmaz, Adem; ULUSU, Yakup
This pioneering study presents the synthesis and comprehensive evaluation of bare and metal-doped Ag₂S nanocrystals (NCs) as multifunctional agents with potential applications in antibacterial, antioxidant, and anticancer therapies. The incorporation of manganese, nickel, cobalt, and zinc into Ag₂S NCs resulted in a notable enhancement of their bioactivity, representing a novel approach in nanomaterial design. The antibacterial assessments revealed that Mn:Ag₂S NCs were the most potent candidate, exhibiting exceptional activity against S. aureus and E. coli, with the lowest MIC values recorded at 1.28 mg/mL and 1.08 mg/mL, respectively. The antioxidant studies demonstrated that the Mn:Ag₂S NCs exhibited remarkable free radical scavenging and ferric reducing capacities, with the lowest IC50 values (22.69 µg/mL for DPPH and 61.31 µg/mL for FRAP) underscoring their potential to mitigate oxidative stress. Importantly, cytotoxicity assays revealed that Ni:Ag₂S and Mn:Ag₂S nanocrystals selectively inhibited the proliferation of human colon cancer cells (HT-29), achieving IC50 values of 61.51 µg/mL and 90.12 µg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, these NCs demonstrate reduced toxicity towards mouse fibroblast cells (L929). This selective cytotoxicity indicates the potential of these agents in targeted cancer therapies, thereby reducing damage to healthy tissues. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to systematically explore the synergistic effects of metal doping on the multifunctional properties of Ag₂S NCs. These findings provide a robust basis for further in vivo studies and offer new avenues for the development of safe and effective nanomaterials in biomedical applications, particularly as antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer agents.

The pharmaceutical and nutraceutical potentials of whole fruit, pulp and seeds of Rosa pimpinellifolia L. were evaluated. Forty-two phenolic compounds and two triterpenoids were identified in extracts by LC-MS/MS and GC–MS, respectively. The most prominent compounds were ellagic acid, catechin, epicatechin, tannic acid, quercetin, oleanolic acid, and ursolic acid. The highest enzyme inhibitory activities of the extracts (94.83%) were obtained against angiotensin-converting enzyme and were almost equal to those of the commercial standard (lisinopril, 98.99%). Whole fruit and pulp extracts (IC50:2.47 and 1.52 μg DW/mL) exhibited higher antioxidant capacity than the standards (α-tocopherol, IC50:9.89 μg DW/mL). The highest antibacterial activity was obtained against Bacillus cereus (MIC: 256 μg/mL) for the whole fruit extract. Correlation analyses were conducted to find the correlation between individual phenolics and enzyme inhibitory activities. The results showed the remarkable future of not only the edible part but also the seeds of black rose hips in phytochemical and functional aspects.

One of the nanomaterial-based antimicrobials, CuS, has emerged as a potential active therapeutic agent to combat biofilm infections, showing superior antibacterial activity with both photothermal and photodynamic effects under NIR illumination. To investigate the influence of transition metals on the antibacterial activity of CuxS, the antibacterial properties of shape- and phase- controlled copper-based multinary sulfide (M: CuxS (M: Mn, Zn and Ni)) nanostructures prepared by hot injection method were investigated against Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Escherichia coli under NIR light irradiation. It has been shown that CuxS-based nanomaterials suppress bacterial growth under NIR light irradiation and that, in addition to their antibacterial activity, they also exhibit a remarkable ability to form biofilms. The antibiofilm efficacy of the M:CuxS (M: Mn, Zn and Ni) nanocomposites was significantly higher than that of bare CuS, resulting in biofilm inhibition with rates of 52.53 %, 62.24 % and 74.48 % on E. coli for Mn:CuxS, Zn:CuxS and Ni:CuxS, respectively. In addition, the biofilm of S. aureus was more affected by treatment with M:CuxS (M: Mn, Zn and Ni) nanocomposites, with biofilm activity of 64.15 %, 68.42 % and 87.35 % for Mn:CuxS, Zn:CuxS and Ni:CuxS, respectively. Ni:CuxS showed the highest antibacterial activity, which is attributed to smaller crystal and particle size and energy band gap, resulting in a larger number of nanoparticles per unit volume, a larger surface area and a stronger tendency to electrostatically bind to bacterial cell membranes, a faster ability to penetrate channels and stronger absorption in the NIR range. This work points the way for a broad application of CuS-based biocompatible synergistic antibacterial nanocomposites and can also serve as a guide for antibacterial/antibiofilm approaches as an alternative to conventional antibiotic treatments.

Royal jelly is one of the most remarkable commercial bee products used in cosmetics, medicine, and as a dietary supplement. This study aimed to determine some quality parameters (amino acid, multi-elemental, total phenolic-flavonoid, 10-HDA, sugar, and moisture content) as well as antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of different royal jelly samples (domestic and non-domestic samples). In this study, royal jelly samples exhibited high antioxidant and antimicrobial activity. 10-HDA values were found to be higher in domestic royal jelly samples (2.17-2.71%) compared to non-domestic samples (0.31-1.71%). Also, it was found that the acidity value varied between 2.57-3.37 mL 0.1 N NaOH/g and 3.87-4.97 mL 0.1 N NaOH/g in non-domestic and domestic royal jelly samples, respectively. L-Proline was the amino acid with the highest rate of occurrence in both domestic (21972.39-35053.00 nmol/g) and non-domestic (19688.31-21711.50 nmol/g) samples. It was determined that the new method developed for amino acid analysis has many advantages over other methods. Chemometrics of principal component analysis (PCA) showed that amino acid profile, elemental profile, and chemical parameters were capable of presenting characteristic and descriptive properties of royal jelly samples. In addition to these findings, Raman spectroscopy combined with chemometrics of hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) was successfully used to distinguish domestic and non-domestic royal jelly samples. The obtained results will provide an important basis for subsequent research on the evaluation of the amino acid content, physicochemical properties, phenolic content, and the antioxidant and elemental profile of royal jelly.

Gul, Osman; Saricaoglu, Furkan Turker; Besir, Aysegul; Atalar, Ilyas; Yazici, Fehmi
Hazelnut meal protein (4% (w/v)) and clove essential oil (CEO) (3% (v/v)) were homogenized with ultrasound (US) at different times (2, 4 and 6 min) and amplitudes (50, 75 and 100%) to obtain nano-emulsion films. Film forming nano-emulsions (FFNs) were analyzed for average particle size (Dz) and zeta potential, and edible film characterization were evaluated depending on US treatment, as well as antibacterial and antioxidant activities. Dz values and zeta potential of FFNs decreased with increasing acoustic energy delivered to nano-emulsion system. Thickness and water solubility of films significantly decreased with increasing US treatment. Films became more transparent depending on US treatment probably due to particle size reduction. Tensile strength (TS) of films significantly increased with US treatment, while elongation at break (EAB) slightly increased. Microstructure of films became more homogeneous after US treatment and caused to lower water vapor permeability. Enrichment with CEO has given the films antibacterial activity against L. monocytogenes, B. subtilis, S. aureus, P. aeruginosa and E. coli, and antioxidant activity, and US application has improved these activities. US technology can be used to improve mechanical, barrier and antimicrobial properties of hazelnut meal protein based edible films enriched with CEO.
