Introduction: Musa sapientum are primarily grown in tropical and subtropical countries, and are commonly used around the world for their nutritional values. Peels were examined for mineral, nutritional content. The product of the mineral content is that the concentration of potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, bromine, and rubidium are high. M. sapientum pulp showed high antimicrobial activity against 13 gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Materials and Methods: The plant extract was prepared. Silver nanoparticles were taken in the form of AgNO3. The plant extract was tested for its anti-inflammatory activity by protein denaturation assay. To assess the antimicrobial activity, the prepared extract was inoculated in different culture plates containing different microorganisms. The results obtained were collected and statistically analyzed in SPSS software and graphs were obtained. Results: Analysis of antimicrobial activity shows The zone of inhibition in Mueller Hinton agar showed C. albicans zone of inhibition in the cultured plate with the diameter of 10 mm, 12 mm and 25 mm in 25 µL, 50 µL, and 100 µL respectively. S. mutans zone of inhibition in the cultured plate with the diameter of 15 mm, 18 mm, and 22 mm at 25 µL, 50 µL, and 100 µL respectively. Conclusion: From the results obtained and analyzed we may conclude that silver nanoparticles synthesized using Musa sapientum extract can be used as a good anti-microbial agent. Its anti-microbial activity can be enhanced by increasing the concentration. Hence furt her advancements in this study could lead to producing and marketing natural product-based antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory agents.

“…The reducing agent acts on the electrons in the metal ions to transform them into metal nanoparticles. Various types of natural reducing agents have been reported, such as basil [20], banana peel [21], sweet flag root [22], mangosteen peel [4], Moringa leaves, and green chiretta [23]. Some previous research also used the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles as coating on textile materials for various applications [24,25].…”

Since the late 2010-s and early 2020s, people around the world have not only encountered the pandemic crisis, but also in some places, they have had to deal with serious levels of air pollution. Personal protective equipment is essential to protect from microorganisms or fine particulate matter. Consequently, this study aimed to develop a silk face covering that could meet the international requirements with the addition of having an antibacterial property. The developed silk face covering consisted of three layers; the outer layer was water-repellent mulberry silk, the inner layer was oil-repellent eri silk, while the middle layer was cotton fabric coated with biosynthesized silver nanoparticles from mangosteen peels mixed with Andrographis paniculata extract. A biodegradable bacterial cellulose filter made of nata de coco waste was also prepared to improve filtration efficiency. It was found that the silver nanoparticles extracted from mangosteen peel and Andrographis paniculata inhibited S. aureus and E. coli by more than 99.9%, even after 20 washing cycles. The performance properties of the silk barrier face covering met Level I of the ASTM F3502-2021 standard, as well as being comfortable for public use.

The enriched nutritional and functional properties of inulinase with wide attention are considered commercial/industrial food enzymes. It can be produced by many microorganisms such as yeasts, fungi, and bacteria. Nocardiopsis is a genus under Actinomycetes, which has biotechnologically important microorganisms. This study aims to isolate and identify marine Actinomycetes Nocardiopsis species and to evaluate the antibacterial potential of the inulinase enzyme obtained from it. Marine actinobacteria (Nocardiopsis sp.) were isolated from sediment samples on YM agar. The isolate was identified by biochemical analysis of cell walls (amino acid and sugar). Enzyme screening assay was performed with temperature and pH influence in the production inulinase enzyme production. Antibacterial activity and minimal inhibitory activity of inulinase enzyme were performed with Staphylococcus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Antimicrobial testing revealed that with higher concentrations of inulinase enzyme, the zone of inhibition of bacterial growth increased, and the minimum inhibitory concentration of inulinase enzyme that prevented the growth of bacteria was close to the standard tetracycline. Inulinase enzyme obtained from Nocardiopsis species shows good antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, K. pneumoniae, and P. aeruginosa in comparison to the standard, tetracycline.
