Journal ArticleDOI
Zinc oxide nanoparticles: Synthesis, antiseptic activity and toxicity mechanism.
TL;DR: The methods of synthesizing zinc oxide nanocomposites as well as their characteristics, antimicrobial activity and cytotoxicity against normal and tumor cells are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial activity of biosilver nanoparticles produced by a novel Streptacidiphilus durhamensis strain
Bogusław Buszewski,Viorica Railean-Plugaru,Paweł Pomastowski,Katarzyna Rafińska,Małgorzata Szultka-Młyńska,Patrycja Golińska,Magdalena Wypij,Dariusz Laskowski,Hanna Dahm +8 more
TL;DR: Insight is provided into the development of new antimicrobial agents along with synergistic enhancement of the antibacterial mechanism against clinical bacteria as well as the synergistic effect of bio(AgNPs) with various commercially available antibiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Bioactive Compounds from Plant Materials.
TL;DR: A new approach has been adopted for SFE in which the solubility of nonpolar supercritical CO2 can be enhanced by the addition of small amounts of cosolvent, which is elaborated upon in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Medicago sativa as a source of secondary metabolites for agriculture and pharmaceutical industry
TL;DR: This review draws attention to the necessity of developing modern analytical tools for identification and quantification of individual M. sativa phytochemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of solvent and extraction technique on composition and biological activity of Lepidium sativum extracts
Katarzyna Rafińska,Paweł Pomastowski,Joanna Rudnicka,Aneta Krakowska,Audrius Maruśka,Monika Narkute,Bogusław Buszewski +6 more
TL;DR: Comparison of MALDI-TOF-MS spectra of all obtained extracts clearly indicates that both SFE and maceration with water are the most selective techniques of extraction due to the lowest level of interfering substances with high molecular masses.
