Anti-Therapeutic Action: Potential toxicity at high concentrations

Biological applications of yttrium oxide nanocomposites synthesized from Aspergillus penicillioides and their potential role in environmental remediation

mycolabadmin

Researchers used a fungus called Aspergillus penicillioides to create tiny particles of yttrium oxide that can remove dangerous metals like lead and nickel from contaminated water. These particles work like microscopic sponges that grab onto the toxic metals when exposed to UV light. The particles also kill bacteria and fight harmful free radicals, making them useful for both cleaning water and potentially treating infections.

Graphene nanomaterials: A new frontier in preventing respiratory fungal infections

mycolabadmin

Fungal lung infections are a serious problem, especially for people with weak immune systems. Researchers are exploring graphene nanomaterials as a new treatment approach that can deliver antifungal drugs directly to infected areas in the lungs. These tiny particles work by creating toxic stress inside fungal cells and breaking down their protective biofilms, while using smaller drug doses and causing fewer side effects than traditional treatments.

Graphene nanomaterials: A new frontier in preventing respiratory fungal infections

mycolabadmin

Graphene nanomaterials, especially nano-graphene oxide, show promise as new treatments for serious lung fungal infections that particularly threaten people with weakened immune systems. These tiny materials work by generating damaging reactive oxygen species that kill fungal cells and prevent biofilm formation. Unlike traditional antifungal drugs, nano-graphene oxide can be delivered directly to infected lung tissue via inhalation, delivering medicine exactly where needed while reducing harmful side effects throughout the body.

Ganoderma lucidum inspired silver nanoparticles and its biomedical applications with special reference to drug resistant Escherichia coli isolates from CAUTI

mycolabadmin

Researchers created tiny silver particles using a medicinal mushroom called Ganoderma lucidum to fight dangerous bacteria that resist antibiotics and are associated with urinary catheter infections. These nanoparticles were found to effectively kill drug-resistant bacteria, work as antioxidants better than a common antioxidant standard, and showed promise in killing breast cancer cells. This eco-friendly approach offers a natural alternative to conventional antibiotics for treating serious antibiotic-resistant infections.

Graphene nanomaterials: A new frontier in preventing respiratory fungal infections

mycolabadmin

Scientists are exploring nano-graphene oxide, a microscopic material made from graphene, as a new treatment for serious lung fungal infections. These tiny particles can kill fungal cells through multiple mechanisms and deliver antifungal drugs directly to infection sites while reducing harmful side effects. Researchers found that graphene oxide can be combined with existing antifungal medications to make them work better and even help overcome drug-resistant fungal infections.
