“…It exhibited considerably low toxicity (Abdelhakim et al 2020 ), high absorption rate (Yusof et al 2019 ), improved bioavailability (Hosseini and Sarviab 2015 ), and better biocompatibility (Shahid et al 2019 ). As such, a wide range of therapeutic and biological activities such as anticancer, antibacterial (Abdelhakim et al 2020 ), antifungal, antioxidant (Mousa et al 2021 ), anti-protozoa (Wajiha et al 2018 ). Thus, these NPs could be a promising candidate in the field of active packaging owing to these unique properties.…”

In this paper, gamma-irradiation was successfully used to intensify the yield of Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) produced by the fungus Alternariatenuissima as a sustainable and green process. The obtained data showed that 500 Gy of gamma-irradiation increased ZnONPs’ yield to approximately four-fold. The synthesized ZnONPs were then exploited to develop active Carboxymethyl Cellulose films by casting method at two different concentration of ZnONPs 0.5% and 1.0%. The physicochemical, mechanical, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties of the prepared films were evaluated. The incorporation of ZnONPs in the Carboxymethyl Cellulose films had significantly decreased solubility (from 78.31% to 66.04% and 59.72%), water vapor permeability (from 0.475 g m−2 to 0.093 g m−2 and 0.026 g m−2), and oxygen transfer rate (from 24.7 × 10–2 to 2.3 × 10–2 and 1.8 × 10–2) of the respective prepared films. Meanwhile, tensile strength (from 183.2 MPa to 203.34 MPa and 235.94 MPa), elongation (from 13.0% to 62.5% and 83.7%), and Yang's modulus (from 325.344 to 1410.0 and 1814.96 MPa) of these films were increased. Moreover, the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities against several human and plant pathogens the prepared of Carboxymethyl Cellulose-ZnONPs films were significantly increased. In conclusion, the prepared Carboxymethyl Cellulose-ZnONPs films showed enhanced activities in comparison with Carboxymethyl Cellulose film without NPs. With these advantages, the fabricated Carboxymethyl Cellulose-ZnONPs films in this study could be effectively utilized as protective edible coating films of food products.

“…Furthermore, one of the most common enteric diseases in poultry and livestock farming is coccidiosis. Coccidiosis is a protozoan disease caused by enteric protozoa of the genus Eimeria infecting the intestinal mucosa and resulting in bloody diarrhea, reduced weight gain and high mortality in poultry and livestock farming [131]. ZnO NPs have also been reported to exhibit anticoccidial properties.…”

In recent years, zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) have gained tremendous attention attributed to their unique properties. Notably, evidence has shown that zinc is an important nutrient in living organisms. As such, both prokaryotes and eukaryotes including bacteria, fungi and yeast are exploited for the synthesis of ZnO NPs by using microbial cells or enzyme, protein and other biomolecules compounds in either an intracellular or extracellular route. ZnO NPs exhibit antimicrobial properties, however, the properties of nanoparticles (NPs) are depended upon on their size and shape, which make them specific for various applications. Nevertheless, the desired size and shape of NPs can be obtained through the optimization process of microbes mediated synthesis by manipulating their reaction conditions. It should be noted that ZnO NPs are synthesized by various chemical and physical methods. Nonetheless, these methods are expensive and not environmentally friendly. On that account, the microbes mediated synthesis of ZnO NPs have rapidly evolved recently where the microbes are cleaner, eco-friendly, non-toxic and biocompatible as the alternatives to chemical and physical practices. Moreover, zinc in the form of NPs is more effective than their bulk counterparts and thus, they have been explored for many potential applications including in animals industry. Notably, with the advent of multi-drug resistant strains, ZnO NPs have emerged as the potential antimicrobial agents. This is mainly due to their superior properties in combating a broad spectrum of pathogens. Moreover, zinc is known as an essential trace element for most of the biological function in the animal’s body. As such, the applications of ZnO NPs have been reported to significantly enhance the health and production of the farm animals. Thus, this paper reviews the biological synthesis of ZnO NPs by the microbes, the mechanisms of the biological synthesis, parameters for the optimization process and their potential application as an antimicrobial agent and feed supplement in the animal industry as well as their toxicological hazards on animals.

“…ZnONPs had high absorption rate, lower toxicity (Yusof et al ), better bioavailability and biocompatibility compared to their conventional Zn sources (Hosseini and Sarviab ; Shahid et al ). They showed a wide range of biological and therapeutic activities including antibacterial (Shahid et al ; Abd Elkodous et al ), antioxidant (Gao et al ), antiprotozoa (Wajiha et al ) and anticancer (Bisht and Rayamajhi ). In addition, recent studies indicated the promising properties of ZnONPs that could be implemented in the poultry and livestock industry (Zhao et al ; Khoobbakht et al ).…”

Aims Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) were successfully synthesized using the culture filtrate of the endophytic fungus Alternaria tenuissima as a rapid, eco‐friendly and cost‐effective method. Methods and Results The rapid synthesis of ZnONPs was completed after 20 min as confirmed by UV–Vis spectroscopy. The synthesized ZnONPs showed a single‐phase crystalline structure. Dynamic light scattering analysis showed that the synthesized ZnONPs were monodispersed and the recorded polydispersity index value was 0·311. Zeta potential value of –23·92 mV indicated the high stability of ZnONPs. Transmission electron microscope revealed the spherical shape and the mean particle size was 15.45 nm. Functional groups present in the prepared samples of ZnONPs were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Additionally, the biological activities of in vitro antimicrobial, anticancer, antioxidant as well as the photocatalytic activities were evaluated. ZnONPs showed broad spectrum of antimicrobial potential against all the tested plant and human pathogens. Based on the MTT assay, ZnONPs inhibited the proliferation of normal human melanocytes, human breast and liver cancer cell lines with IC50 concentrations of 55·76, 18·02 and 16·87 µg ml−1. ZnONPs exhibited promising antioxidant potential with 50% inhibitory concentration of 102·13 µg ml−1. Moreover, ZnONPs showed efficient degradation of methylene blue dye. Conclusions The synthesized ZnONPs showed promising activities that can be better explored in the near future for many medical, agricultural and industrial applications. Significance and Impact of the Study This study suggests a new and alternate approach with the excellent biotechnological potentiality for the production of ZnONPs which could open up the way for the industrial manufacture of nanoparticles using microbial platforms.
