“…It has been reported that CuNPs of about 30 nm are more active against pathogens than those of smaller size [ 33 ]. CuONPs have received much attention in a wide range of applications, including their use as antimicrobial agents [ 9 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 ].…”

In the last decade, metal nanoparticles (NPs) have gained significant interest in the field of biotechnology due to their unique physiochemical properties and potential uses in a wide range of applications. Metal NP synthesis using microorganisms has emerged as an eco-friendly, clean, and viable strategy alternative to chemical and physical approaches. Herein, an original and efficient route for the microbial synthesis of copper NPs using bacterial strains newly isolated from an Antarctic consortium is described. UV-visible spectra of the NPs showed a maximum absorbance in the range of 380–385 nm. Transmission electron microscopy analysis showed that these NPs are all monodispersed, spherical in nature, and well segregated without any agglomeration and with an average size of 30 nm. X-ray powder diffraction showed a polycrystalline nature and face centered cubic lattice and revealed characteristic diffraction peaks indicating the formation of CuONPs. Fourier-transform infrared spectra confirmed the presence of capping proteins on the NP surface that act as stabilizers. All CuONPs manifested antimicrobial activity against various types of Gram-negative; Gram-positive bacteria; and fungi pathogen microorganisms including Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans. The cost-effective and eco-friendly biosynthesis of these CuONPs make them particularly attractive in several application from nanotechnology to biomedical science.

“…Since the discovery of the first vaccine in the 1790s, many other vaccines have been developed and have since played a major role in the prevention of various diseases. Vaccines are defined as preparations based on microorganisms with attenuated virulence or on their constituents, which the administration aims to protect the host from the disease caused by the pathogen involved (Rappuoli et al, 2014). The best-known antibacterial vaccines are those for diphtheria (caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae), cholera (caused by Vibrio cholerae), tetanus (caused by Clostridium tetani), and pertussis (caused by Bordetella pertussis).…”

“…These factors typically include adhesins, iron receptors, secreted toxins, capsules (and their K antigens), capsule flagella (and their H antigens), outer membrane proteins, and lipopolysaccharides which may be transferred by plasmids, transposons, bacteriophages, and islets of pathogenicity (Terlizzi et al, 2017). Numerous studies have shown that the use of vaccines in certain pathologies of bacterial origin can help reduce the use of antibiotics (Bloom et al, 2018;Klugman and Black, 2018;Kobayashi et al, 2016;Rappuoli et al, 2014) and some have demonstrated the effectiveness of vaccines in the fight against antibiotic resistance (Klugman and Black, 2018;Ouldali et al, 2019). The most recent example is the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines, which has led to a significant drop in the proportion of resistant pneumococcal strains.…”

The importance of antibiotics in the treatment of infectious diseases of bacterial origin is well established. Despite the positive contribution of antibiotics in veterinary and clinical medicine, some of these molecules were regarded as harmful to both human and animal health with some undesirable effects. Moreover, microorganisms have developed resistance mechanisms to almost all commonly used antibiotics. Hence, there is an urgent need to find alternative ways against bacterial resistance to antibiotics which constitute a public health concern worldwide. The search for solutions to overcome this problem prompted researchers to seek new methods and molecules to continue the treatment of bacterial infections while limiting the spread of resistance and thwarting already resistant germs. The present study is new and current because it presents in a single document the most known alternatives to antibiotics. Therefore, the aim of this brief review was to discuss methods that can constitute a valid way to reduce the use or even replace conventional antibiotics. We found that phage therapy, probiotics, antimicrobial peptides, vaccines, medicinal plants, nanoparticles, antibodies, and cytokines are among the most promising alternatives and more investigation should focus on them.

“…Copper NPs shows antimicrobial activity towards Bacillus subtilis, E. coli, S. aureus, Micrococcus luteus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella enterica, and Enterobactor aerogenes [83], [84], [85] and also antifungal activity against Fusarium oxysporum and Phytophthora capsici [86]. The copper ions are capable of damaging cell membrane, DNA, RNA and other molecules, thus Cu NPs have shown profound effect against viruses such as human influenza A (H1N1), avian influenza (H9N2), and many more including COVID-19 virus reducing its viability, and half-life [87].…”

An emerging field of science “Nanotechnology” which is involved in manipulation of atoms and molecules has shown great potential in all fields of sciences. Nanotechnology deals with nanoparticles ranging from size 1 to 100 nm in diameter, due to small size and high surface area eventually increases the state of activity. This review focuses on metal and metal oxide nanoparticles and mainly on green synthesis, characterization and application of copper nanoparticles. Green synthesis of copper and copper oxide (Cu and CuO) is economically beneficial and ecofriendly. Copper nanoparticles are used in diverse fields such as biomedicine, pharmaceuticals, bioremediation, molecular biology, bioengineering, genetic engineering, dye degradation, catalysis, cosmetics and textiles. Structural properties and biological effects of copper nanoparticles have promising effectivity in field of life sciences.
