“…The plates were kept at 4 °C for 2h before incubation to permit diffusion to occur. The plates were kept at 37 °C for 24 h except yeast strain that were incubated at 28 °C for 24h then followed by measure of the diameter of the inhibition zone (mm), and this was replicate for five times and the average was taken [ 56 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 ].…”

Combination of arylidene hydrazinyl moiety with pyrido[2,3- d ]pyrimidin-4-one skeleton in compounds 7‒26 results in the output of unprecedented anti-microbial agents. Arylidene hydrazinyl based on Pyrido[2,3- d ]pyrimidin-4-one analoges 7‒26 prepared by the treatment of [2,3- d ]pyrimidin-4-ones 6a , b with various aromatic aldehydes. The antimicrobial action for recently synthesized compounds was considered towards gram positive bacterial species ( Staphylococcus aurous ATCC- 47077; Bacillus cereus ATCC-12228), gram negative bacterial species ( Escherichia coli ATCC-25922; Salmonella typhi ATCC-15566) and Candida albicans ATCC-10231 as fungal strains. The antimicrobial action expanded by expanding the electron donating group in position 2 and 5 for Pyrido[2,3- d ]pyrimidin-4-one core. Derivatives 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 and 12 ; individually appeared hopeful anti-microbial action towards all strains utilized with inhibition zone higher than that of standard reference drug with lowest MIC.

“…Nanocomposites with ZnONPs have been produced with different materials in order to increase the growth inhibition of microorganisms [45,46]. However, the results of the antifungal activity were contradictory; ZnONPs capped by surfactant in cotton fiber have proved the inhibition of Candida albicans in 94% [68], while the incorporation of ZnONPs in polylactic acid films does not inhibit the Candida albicans growth [80].…”

Candida albicans is an opportunistic dimorphic yeast. This organism is pathogen associated to superficial and systemic infections. Actually, Candida albicans represents an emergent pathogen especially in a patient with some immunity compromises. Added to this, the use of antifungal in an indiscriminate form has increased the resistance of the existing drugs. In this aspect, the nanotechnology generates the possibility of creating new therapeutic agents. Nanoparticles are structures of 1-100 nm with special physicochemical characteristics that allow it to function as therapeutic agents or as carriers of these. Palladium, silver, and gold metallic nanoparticles and iron, titanium, zinc, and copper oxides have been used as growth inhibitors. These nanoparticles have been proved alone or in form of nanocomposites. The objective of this chapter is to describe the state of the art of the use of nanoparticles as inhibitors of the growth of Candida albicans, as well as the most relevant results regarding the mechanisms involved in this inhibition.

“…The use of phytochemicals in the synthesis of nanoparticles constitutes an important symbiosis between nanotechnology and green chemistry [9]. Green synthesis of metal nanoparticles has several advantages, such as better biocompatibility, convenient scale-up, quick [10], uncomplicated reaction procedures, and more. This is evidenced by the research in which synthesis cadmium telluride quantum dots [11] and zinc telluride quantum dots [12] was used the aqueous extract of the Ficus johannis plant.…”

The growing production and wider application of metal nanoparticles gives rise to many concerns about their release to natural ecosystems. It is very important to be aware of the harmful impact of nanoparticles on living organisms, including plants. Therefore, it is of vital significance to explore the impact of metal nanoparticles on plants. This work assessed the phytotoxicity of bimetallic Ag/Au nanoparticles and Geum urbanum L. extract. The obtained bimetallic Ag/Au nanoparticles were characterized by UV–vis spectrophotometry (UV–vis), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The microscopic studies enabled the determination of the size of the obtained nanoparticles, which was 50 nm. The wide range of concentrations evaluated in the course of the study made it possible to observe changes in selected plants (seeds of Lepidium sativum, Linum flavum, Zea mays, Solanum lycopersicum var. Cerasiforme and Salvia hispanica-Chia) caused by a stress factor. The studies showed that the solution of Ag/Au nanoparticles was most toxic to flax (IC50 = 9.83 × 10–6/9.25 × 10–6 mg/ml), and least toxic to lupine (IC50 = 1.23 × 10–3/1.16 × 10–3 mg/ml). Moreover, we studied the toxicity of Geum urbanum extract. The extracts diluted to 0.00875 mg/ml stimulated the growth of lupine, flax and garden cress; extracts diluted to 0.175 mg/ml stimulated the growth of Chia and tomatoes; and extracts diluted to 0.00875 mg/ml stimulated the growth of corn. G. urbanum extract was most toxic to lupine (IC50 = 0.374 mg/ml), and least toxic to corn (IC50 = 4.635 mg/ml).
