“…The consequences of this investigation demonstrated a high prevalence (47% vs 50%) of MRSA in cloacal swab and sewage samples, separately. This is inconsistent with the result of previous reports, in which 19.2% prevalence of MRSA was observed in cloacal swab from broiler chickens in Chattogram district of Bangladesh 40 . Prevalence of MRSA in cloacal swab and environmental samples were 27.3%, and 8.3% in Iraq and Netherlands, respectively 15 , 16 .…”

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among foodborne bacteria is a well-known public health problem. A sink survey was conducted to determine the AMR pattern of common foodborne bacteria in cloacal swab of broiler chickens and sewage samples from five wholesale chicken markets of Dhaka city in Bangladesh. Bacteria were identified by culture-based and molecular methods, and subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Resistance genes were identified by multiplex PCR and sequencing. Multidrug resistance (MDR) was observed in 93.2% of E. coli, 100% of Salmonella spp., and 97.2% of S. aureus from cloacal swab samples. For sewage samples, 80% of E. coli, and 100% of Salmonella and S. aureus showed MDR. Noteworthy, 8.3% of S. aureus from cloacal swab samples showed possible extensively drug resistance. Antimicrobial resistance genes (beta-lactamase—blaTEM, blaSHV; quinolone resistance gene—qnrS) were detected in a number of E. coli and Salmonella isolates from cloacal swab and sewage samples. The methicillin resistance gene (mecA) was detected in 47.2% and 25% S. aureus from cloacal swab and sewage samples, respectively. The findings envisage the potential public health risk and environmental health hazard through spillover of common foodborne MDR bacteria.

“…Green synthetized ZnO and xanthan gum nanocomposite showed inhibition effect to violacein (61%) chitinase (70%) in C. violaceum and prodigiosin (71%) and protease (72%) in S. marcescens at 128 mu g/mL concentration ( 68 ). In the term of E. coli , the ZnNPs showed efficiency as an anti-inflammatory agent and suppressed multidrug resistance producing virulence and resistance genes in E. coli isolated from chicken meat ( 69 ).…”

Importance of Zinc Nanoparticles for the Intestinal Microbiome of Weaned Piglets

The scientific community is closely monitoring the replacement of antibiotics with doses of ZnO in weaned piglets. Since 2022, the use of zinc in medical doses has been banned in the European Union. Therefore, pig farmers are looking for other solutions. Some studies have suggested that zinc nanoparticles might replace ZnO for the prevention of diarrhea in weaning piglets. Like ZnO, zinc nanoparticles are effective against pathogenic microorganisms, e.g., Enterobacteriaceae family in vitro and in vivo. However, the effect on probiotic Lactobacillaceae appears to differ for ZnO and zinc nanoparticles. While ZnO increases their numbers, zinc nanoparticles act in the opposite way. These phenomena have been also confirmed by in vitro studies that reported a strong antimicrobial effect of zinc nanoparticles against Lactobacillales order. Contradictory evidence makes this topic still controversial, however. In addition, zinc nanoparticles vary in their morphology and properties based on the method of their synthesis. This makes it difficult to understand the effect of zinc nanoparticles on the intestinal microbiome. This review is aimed at clarifying many circumstances that may affect the action of nanoparticles on the weaning piglets' microbiome, including a comprehensive overview of the zinc nanoparticles in vitro effects on bacterial species occurring in the digestive tract of weaned piglets.

“…Metals with inherent antimicrobial properties such as silver, copper, and zinc, on the nanoscale, constitute a special class of antimicrobials that have a broad-spectrum antimicrobial nature and pose minimum toxicity to humans. Furthermore, a wide range of metals has antimicrobial activity, e.g., Ag, Al, As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ga, Hg, Mo, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sb, Te, and Zn [33,35,74,[76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84][85][86]. These NMs have vast antipathogenic activities and are used to eradicate such pathogens that have strong resistance against normal therapies.…”

Innovations in nanotechnology have had an immense impact on medicine, such as in drug delivery, tissue engineering, and medical devices that combat different pathogens. The pathogens that may cause biofilm-associated nosocomial diseases are multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, such as Escherichia coli (E. coli), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), including both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial species. About 65–80% of infections are caused by biofilm-associated pathogens creating a move in the international community toward developing antimicrobial therapies to eliminate such pathogenic infections. Several nanomaterials (NMs) have been discovered and significantly employed in various antipathogenic therapies. These NMs have unique properties of singlet oxygen production, high absorption of near-infrared irradiation, and reasonable conversion of light to heat. In this review, functionalized NPs that combat different pathogenic infections are introduced. This review highlights NMs that combat infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) and other pathogenic microorganisms. It also highlights the biomedical application of NPs with regard to antipathogenic activities.
