“…B Representative Comet images, from null DNA damage (a) to maximum DNA damage (b), of eggs stained with ethidium bromide and observed under fluorescent microscope (Leica DM750 Fluorescence Microscope) different carbon allotropic forms as amorphous carbon, graphite and nanodiamonds, carbon nanotubes and carbon nanodots. Nano-diamonds and graphene oxides at concentration of 5000 µg/ml decrease basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) mRNA expression and protein level in the heart of chicken embryos [40,41]. In mice embryos, skeletal malformations were described following intraperitoneal injection of multiwall carbon nanotubes [42].…”

Nanoparticles are a newly emerging class of pollutants with eco-toxicological impacts on marine ecosystems; they are characterized by nano-scale size which improves their physical, chemical and biological properties. To better understand the mechanisms of embryotoxicity of carbon-based nanoparticles, the genotoxicity and the perturbation of the Gene Regulatory Network (GRN) expression have been investigated during the development of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus from fertilization to early pluteus stage. Increasing quantities of carbon nanoparticles (C-NPs), 0.5, 2.5 and 25 × 1013 C-NPs/500 cm3 of filtered seawater were administered during fertilization and the development was monitored up to the early pluteus stage (48 h). DNA damage and gene expression were assayed by Comet assay and Real-Time PCR, respectively. Taken together, our results indicate that embryo malformations taking place in the presence of C-NPs are due to altered regulation of the GNR and to a progressive accumulation of DNA single-strand breaks.

“…The bioavailability of selenium is related to its physical form [11]. With the recent progress of the nanotechnology field, nano-selenium (nano-Se) has acquired extensive attention because the nanometer particles display innovative features such as a high surface activity, high catalytic efficiency, large surface area, strong adsorbing ability, and low toxicity [13][14][15]. Recently, nano-Se has been widely used in poultry nutrition.…”

“…However, there is a huge concern about the application of the chemical form of nano-Se [16]. The chemical technique can cause hazardous effects for the environment and animals [13,15]. More recently, biosynthesis of nanoparticles is a new tactic for synthesizing nanoparticles that uses plants and microorganisms which have biomedical uses [16][17][18].…”

The adverse influences of elevated ambient temperatures during the summer season on the rabbit industry have received increased global attention. Therefore, this study intended to compare the potential effects of nano-selenium (nano-Se) synthesized by biological (BIO) and chemical (CH) methods on growth performance, carcass variables, serum metabolites, and inflammatory cytokines responses of growing rabbits in the summer season. Two hundred and fifty weaned rabbits (males, 35 days of age) were randomly divided into five treatment groups of 50 rabbits each (each group had five replicates with ten male rabbits). Treatment groups were fed a control diet and four controlled diets supplemented with nano-Se synthesized by biological method (BIO25 and BIO50, with a 25 and 50 mg of nano-Se/kg diet, respectively) and chemical method (CH25 and CH50, with a 25 and 50 mg of nano-Se/kg diet, respectively) for eight weeks. During 11 to 13 weeks of age, a gradual enhancement in live body weight (LBW), feed intake (FI) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) was noticed with BIO25 and BIO50 treatments compared to those in the other groups. The carcass percentage was significantly higher (p < 0.01) for animals fed with BIO25 than the other groups. The other organ functions were significantly higher (p < 0.01) in heat-stressed groups compared to that of nano-Se groups. Increasing the level of only BIO from a 25 to a 50 mg/kg diet gave more improvement in the studied parameters. Additionally, the concentrations of serum urea, triglycerides (TG), and glutamyl transferase (GGT) were lower (p < 0.01) in both treated and untreated groups. Likewise, the supplementation with nano-Se (BIO25, BIO50, or CH25) significantly improved the antioxidant indices and inflammatory cytokines responses as indicated from serum metabolites. Based on the study results, nano-Se especially synthesized by the biological method at diet levels of 25 or 50 mg/kg improved the growth performance, kidney and liver functions, carcass traits, antioxidants indices, and inflammatory cytokines of growing rabbits during thermal stress.

“…It is the most significant ionic cellulose ether with worldwide production. The main target is to use CMC as a core for superabsorbent hydrogel for water retention, soil conditioning, and fertilizer delivery to decrease the huge loss in agriculture [17,[20][21][22]. Superabsorbent hydrogels are mainly built on non-biodegradable resources, for example polyacrylates.…”

The deficiency of water sources and the environmental disposal of large amounts of biomass waste (orange peels) produces economic and environmental problems, though its conversion into biochar by a pyrolysis procedure might be used to improve soil productivity. In the current study, we investigated the performance of superabsorbent biochar composite grafted on CMC as a low-cost, alternative, and biodegradable terpolymer composite (IPNCB) for soil water retention capacity. The IPNCB composite was synthesized by both microwave and conventional routes. The optimal reaction parameters proved that the microwave route has a high grafting percentage (%G) and short reaction time compared to the conventional route. The superabsorbent composite was characterized using different methods: FTIR, TGA, and SEM. The results show that the equilibrium water swelling (EW) of the IPNCB composite was improved at a 2% biochar concentration. The incorporation of biochar (BC) into the polymer network improved the water holding capacity (WHC) to 57.6% and water retention (WR) to 9.1% after 30 days. The degradation test indicates the IPNCB composite has a good degradability rate. Mixing soil with the prepared IPNCB composite can improve plant growth and reduce water consumption through the irrigation of arid lands. The IPNCB composite is a candidate in sustainable agriculture applications.
