AB  - Recently, many studies have shown various beneficial effects of polyphenol resveratrol (Res) on human health. The most important of these effects include cardioprotective, neuroprotective, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, osteoinductive, and anti-microbial effects. Resveratrol has cis and trans isoforms, with the trans isoform being more stable and biologically active. Despite the results of in vitro experiments, resveratrol has limited potential for application in vivo due to its poor water solubility, sensitivity to oxygen, light, and heat, rapid metabolism, and therefore low bioavailability. The possible solution to overcome these limitations could be the synthesis of resveratrol in nanoparticle form. Accordingly, in this study, we have developed a simple, green solvent/non-solvent physicochemical method to synthesize stable, uniform, carrier-free resveratrol nanobelt-like particles (ResNPs) for applications in tissue engineering. UV–visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) was used to identify the trans isoform of ResNPs which remained stable for at least 63 days. The additional qualitative analysis was performed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), while X-ray diffraction (XRD) determined the monoclinic structure of resveratrol with a significant difference in the intensity of diffraction peaks between commercial and nano-belt form. The morphology of ResNPs was evaluated by optical microscopy and field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) that revealed a uniform nanobelt-like structure with an individual thickness of less than 1 μm. Bioactivity was confirmed using Artemia salina in vivo toxicity assay, while 2,2–diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazylhydrate (DPPH) reduction assay showed the good antioxidative potential of concentrations of 100 μg/ml and lower. Microdilution assay on several reference strains and clinical isolates showed promising antibacterial potential on Staphylococci, with minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) being 800 μg/ml. Bioactive glass-based scaffolds were coated with ResNPs and characterized to confirm coating potential. All of the above make these particles a promising bioactive, easy-to-handle component in various biomaterial formulations.

AB  - Acinetobacter baumannii is an emerging nosocomial pathogen resistant to a wide spectrum of antibiotics, with great potential to form a biofilm, which further aggravates treatment of infections caused by it. Therefore, searching for new potent agents that are efficient against A. baumannii seems to be a necessity. One of them, which has already been proven to possess a wide spectrum of biological activities, including antimicrobial effect, is cinnamon essential oil. Still, further increase of antibacterial efficacy and improvement of bioavailability of cinnamon oil is possible by emulsification process. The aim of this study was comparative analysis of cinnamon essential oil and its emulsion against biofilm forming A. baumannii clinical isolates. Furthermore, the investigation of toxicological aspects of possible applications of essential oil and emulsion was done as well. Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry of essential oil indicated trans-cinnamaldehyde as the most abundant component. The cinnamon emulsion was synthesized from cinnamon essential oil by combining modified low- and high- energy methods. Synthesized emulsion was characterized with Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and photon correlation spectroscopy. Both substances exhibited significant antibacterial (minimal inhibitory concentrations in the range 0.125–0.5 mg/ml) and antibiofilm effects (inhibitions of formation and reduction of pre-formed biofilm were 47–81 and 30–62%, respectively). Compared to essential oil, the efficacy of emulsion was even stronger considering the small share of pure oil (20%) in the emulsion. The result of biofilm eradication assay was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. Even though the cytotoxicity was high especially for the emulsion, genotoxicity was not determined. In conclusion, strong antibacterial/antibiofilm effect against A. baumannii of the cinnamon essential oil and the fact that emulsification even potentiated the activity, seems to be of great significance. Observed cytotoxicity implicated that further analysis is needed in order to clearly determine active principles being responsible for obtained antibacterial/antibiofilm and cytotoxic properties.

AB  - Objective: Acinetobacter baumannii is a pathogenic species which presents a danger to healthcare facilities due to the rapid spread of antibiotic resistance. Plants are currently being explored as a potential source of bioactive compounds that could be used to combat infectious diseases. Cinnamon is used as a food spice, but essential oil has been proven for antimicrobial activity. Due to reduced stability and solubility of essential oil, nanoemulsion (NE) synthesis could provide stronger antimicrobial effects. Investigation and comparison of antimicrobial activity of cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum L.) bark essential oil (EO) and NE on the A. baumannii ATCC19606 and clinical isolates. Effect of EO and NE on biofilm formation and biofilm eradication.
Methods: GC/MS was performed in order to determine chemical composition of commercially purchased EO (P0125285, Frey + Lau, GmbH, Henstedt-Ulzburg, Germany). Droplet/particle size and polydispersity index of NE was determined by photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS). Minimal inhibitory concentration of EO and NE were defined using MIC assay. Effects of EO and NE were also examined on biofilm formation and eradication. Crystal violet staining was used for biofilm biomass quantification.
Results: GC/MS analysis determined that the most common compound was trans-Cinnamaldehyde (61.9%). NE droplet/particles had multimodal distribution, shown by PCS. MIC values for EO were in range 0.25mg/mL — 0.5mg/mL, and for NE 0.125mg/mL — 0.25mg/mL. Both tested substances showed good effect on biofilm eradication, and destroyed biofilm biomass up to 64%, whilst the inhibition of biofilm formation was up to 70%.
Conclusion: Taking all the results into account, it is a good start for further investigations of both EO and NE as a potential antimicrobial agent. Deeper knowledge about the mechanisms of actions of both of these tested substances could help us to understand the best and the most effective way to use them, in order to combat against Acinetobacter baumannii.

AB  - Natural chemicals and earth elements are increasingly used in research as basis for novel materials intended for use in medicine. Among phytopharmaceuticals, more specifically polyphenols, resveratrol is known for its’ antioxidative, anticancer, antimicrobial, and other beneficial effects. Selenium, an essential trace element, is lately being recognized in nanoparticle form as less toxic and equally or more efficient than commercially available forms. The synergy of these two agents have not been shown until lately, when their synergistic antioxidative and gene expression effects were investigated for the purpose of treating Alcheimer disease. During our previous research, we have successfully synthesized pure resveratrol particles, as well as selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs). Both of them were separately investigated regarding their biological activities. The first step in evaluation of their possible synergistic antioxidative effect was obtaining the stable composite of these two materials. Synthesis parameters and processing methods were varied, and obtained suspensions assessed by their macroscopic and microscopic characteristics. The sample with both components homogeneously distributed in the particle form, was chosen for further experiments. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to characterize sample, and antioxidative activity (by DPPH reduction assay), and cytocompatibility (using MTT cytotoxicity assay) were additionally determined. Results showed improved cytocompatibility as compared to pure resveratrol particles, and preserved, significantly high antioxidative potential.

abstract = "Natural chemicals and earth elements are increasingly used in research as basis for novel materials intended for use in medicine. Among phytopharmaceuticals, more specifically polyphenols, resveratrol is known for its’ antioxidative, anticancer, antimicrobial, and other beneficial effects. Selenium, an essential trace element, is lately being recognized in nanoparticle form as less toxic and equally or more efficient than commercially available forms. The synergy of these two agents have not been shown until lately, when their synergistic antioxidative and gene expression effects were investigated for the purpose of treating Alcheimer disease. During our previous research, we have successfully synthesized pure resveratrol particles, as well as selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs). Both of them were separately investigated regarding their biological activities. The first step in evaluation of their possible synergistic antioxidative effect was obtaining the stable composite of these two materials. Synthesis parameters and processing methods were varied, and obtained suspensions assessed by their macroscopic and microscopic characteristics. The sample with both components homogeneously distributed in the particle form, was chosen for further experiments. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to characterize sample, and antioxidative activity (by DPPH reduction assay), and cytocompatibility (using MTT cytotoxicity assay) were additionally determined. Results showed improved cytocompatibility as compared to pure resveratrol particles, and preserved, significantly high antioxidative potential.",

AB  - Selenium is an especially important element for the functioning of antioxidative enzymes, making it one of the essential micronutrients. Although selenium is required in extremely small amounts, often it is lacking from the organism. However, inorganic and organic sources of selenium are known to possess considerable toxicity. Recently, the nanoparticle form of selenium has been shown to exhibit lesser toxicity, and also better antimicrobial and other biological effects, than selenium-containing compounds. Nanotechnology has already found application in many fields, for improving material properties for various purposes, among them, in the process of improving food characteristics. It is possible that selenium nanoparticles can be applied as antimicrobial agents in food, and there has been growing interest in this area of research. We have synthesized selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) by chemical reduction method, using sodium selenite, ascorbic acid, and bovine serum albumin. The antimicrobial activity of these particles has been assessed by minimum inhibitory concentration assay and colony-forming units count, on Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella enterica, which are common bacterial food contaminants. As intestinal microbiota, especially probiotic bacteria, have been shown to play important role in organism functioning, we also tested how SeNPs influence Lactobacillus rhamosus and Lactobacillus plantarum. To evaluate cytotoxicity, we used MTT assay on the human intestinal cell line (HT-29). Antioxidative properties were assessed by DPPH assay. SeNPs showed higher antibacterial activity on pathogenic bacteria than on probiotic strains. Cytotoxic effect was present only in the highest tested concentrations. The antioxidative activity was considerable, resulting in above 80% reduction of DPPH free radical, at 1 g/ml of SeNPs. Based on these results, SeNPs are a promising subject for further research in developing materials for food packaging or as antimicrobial selenium additives.

AB  - Антимикробна резистенција представља велики проблем за јавно здравље због ограничених терапијских могућности. Acinetobacter baumannii је опортунистички патоген, отпоран на многе групе антибиотика и доводи до појаве болничких инфекција. Светска здравствена организација прогласила је A. baumannii за патогенa који ефикасно избегава ефекат конвенционалних антибиотика, тако да је потреба за новим антимикробним средствима евидентна. Природни производи укључујући етарска уља су препозната као добри антимикробни агенси. Цимет је вековима познат зачин који има широку примену и за етарско уље (ЕУ цимета) је показано да поседује различите биолошке активности. Циљ ове студије је било испитивање ефекта ЕУ цимета и његове новосинтетисане наноемулзије (НА) на формирање биофилма A. baumannii. ЕУ цимета је хемијски окарактерисано применом GC/MS анализе. Величина капи и полидисперзитет припремљених НА испитани су фотонском корелационом спектроскопијом. МИК вредности су одређене микродилуционом методом, а антибиофилм активност бојењем кристал виолетом. GC/MS анализа је показала да је најзаступљенија компонента испитиваног ЕУ транс-цинамалдехид (61,9%), док НА показују мултимодалну расподелу величине честица. МИК вредности су се кретале у опсегу 0,25-0,5 mg/mL за EУ и 0,125-0,25 mg/mL за НА. Инхибиција формирања биофилма се кретала до 59% и 69%, за ЕУ и НА. Добијени резултати показују да НА има јачи антимикробни и антибиофилм ефекат, па се може рећи да би емулзификација могла бити приступ ка ефикаснијем сузбијању инфекција А. baumannii.

AB  - Биофилм као животна форма представља један од најважнијих фактора вируленције који је заступљен у 80-90% инфекција, а посебно на материјалима који се користе у ортопедији. Бактерије у биофилму су вишеструко отпорније на антибиотике и спољашње факторе, те је превенција развоја биофилма некада једини ефикасан метод спречавања појаве и ширења инфекције. У последње време интензивно се проучавају наноструктуирани материјали отпорни на колонизацију бактерија и развој биофилма. Селен је један од елемената који у својој наноформи показује добре биолошке ефекте, а ресвератрол је популарни полифенол чији се потенцијал за примену у медицини интензивно истражује. Добијањем обе ове компоненте у нано- облицима, отварају се даље могућности комбиновања и стварања композитног материјала са побољшаним особинама, за примену у превенцији биофилма. Ресвератрол и наночестице селена појединачно показују добар, али недовољно истражен антимикробни потенцијал. Након њиховог спајања испитали смо ефекат добијеног композита у спречавању формирања биофилма код више бактеријских врста. Концентрације композита од 6% (и ниже) су доводиле до инхибиције формирања биофилма од најмање 20% код већине тестираних бактерија. Посебно се истиче добар антибиофилм ефекат на сојевима P. aeruginosa, где је на тестираним концентрацијама уочена инхибиција формирања биофилма у опсегу од 20-60%.
