“…Zones of inhibition were seen around the discs of positive controls in plates of both bacteria, as expected. A similar zone of inhibition was noted in individual components against a spectrum of bacteria in various studies indicating their antibacterial activity [ 35 , 39 , 40 ]. The mean zone of inhibition in plates of FN around the O1/W emulsion disc was 0.82 cm (0.86 + 0.76+0.86) and for PG it was 0.70 cm (0.70 + 0.70+0.70).…”

“…Although the number of published articles using biosynthesized CuONPs for C. albicans inhibition is limited, the CMI found in this study is lower than in other reports. For instance, CuONPs coated with essential oils from Artemisia absinthium were reported with a MIC of 500 µg/mL [ 34 ]. In another study using the extract of Prunus mahaleb as a reducing agent, a MIC of 125 µg/mL was found [ 35 ].…”

Candida albicans (ATCC SC5314) was exposed to biosynthesized copper oxide nanoparticles (CuONPs) to determine their inhibitory capacity. Nanoparticles were polydisperse of small size (5.8 ± 3.5 nm) with irregular shape. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against C. albicans was 35.5 µg/mL. The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) of C. albicans was verified when exposed to different concentrations of CuONPs. Ultrastructural analysis of C. albicans revealed a high concentration of CuONPs in the cytoplasm and outside the cell; also, nanoparticles were detected within the cell wall. Cytotoxic analyses using fibroblasts (L929), macrophages (RAW 264.7), and breast (MCF-12) cell lines show good results of cell viability when exposed at the MIC. Additionally, a hemocompatibility analysis was carried out and was found to be below 5%, considered the threshold for biocompatibility. Therefore, it is concluded that the biosynthesized CuONPs have a high potential for developing a topical antifungal treatment.

“…under high temperature stress [ 7 ], cucumber ( Cucumis sativus L.) under salinity and heat stress [ 8 ], pak choi ( Brassica chinensis L.) under heavy metal stress [ 10 ], and rapeseed ( Brassica napus L.) under salinity stress [ 9 ]. There are studies on bio-nano-copper as a guard against plant pathogens such as on absinthium ( Artemisia absinthium L.) [ 23 ], ginger ( Zingiber officinale Roscoe) [ 24 ], and guar ( Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L.) [ 25 ]. However, there are very few studies on the effects of Se and CuO bio-nanofertilizers on other crops such as banana [ 11 ] and tomato [ 26 ].…”

Strawberry production presents special challenges due the plants’ shallow roots. The rooting stage of strawberry is a crucial period in the production of this important crop. Several amendments have been applied to support the growth and production of strawberry, particularly fertilizers, to overcome rooting problems. Therefore, the current investigation was carried out to evaluate the application of biological nanofertilizers in promoting strawberry rooting. The treatments included applying two different nanofertilizers produced biologically, nano-selenium (i.e., 25, 50, 75, and 100 mg L−1) and nano-copper (i.e., 50 and 100 mg L−1), plus a control (untreated seedlings). The rooting of strawberry seedlings was investigated by measuring the vegetative growth parameters (root weight, seedling weight, seedling length, and number of leaves), plant enzymatic antioxidants (catalase, peroxidase, and polyphenol oxidase activity), and chlorophyll content and its fluorescence and by evaluating the nutritional status (content of nutrients in the fruit and their uptake). The results showed that the applied nanofertilizers improved the growth, photosynthetic pigments, antioxidant content, and nutritional status of the seedlings compared to the control. A high significant increase in nutrient contents reached to more than 14-fold, 6-fold, 5-folf, and 4-fold for Cu, Mn, N, and Se contents, respectively, due to the applied nanofertilizers compared with the control. The result was related to the biological roles of both Se and CuO in activating the many plant enzymes. Comparing the Se with the CuO nanofertilizer, Cu had the strongest effect, which was shown in the higher values in all studied properties. This study showed that nanofertilizers are useful to stimulate strawberry seedling growth and most likely would also be beneficial for other horticultural crops. In general, the applied 100 ppm of biological nano-Se or nano-CuO might achieve the best growth of strawberry seedlings under growth conditions in greenhouses compared to the control. Along with the economic dimension, the ecological dimension of biological nanofertilizers still needs more investigation.
