Journal ArticleDOI

A bio-inspired strategy for the synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) using the cell extract of cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. EA03: from biological function to toxicity evaluation

TL;DR: Cyanobacteria, as one of the largest groups of phototrophic bacteria, have a high potential as an excellent source of fine chemicals and bioactive compounds, including lipid-like compounds, amino acid derivatives, proteins, and pigments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Probiotics and their increasing importance in human health and infection control

TL;DR: Probiotics contribute to prevent viral infections, athlete's foot and fungal infections, and improvement of digestion and enhancing nutrition absorbance, inhibition of biofilm formation and increase in vitamins biosynthesis; especially those in groups B and K.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk factors and control strategies for silicotuberculosis as an occupational disease.

TL;DR: Some strategies can be implemented, such as controlling or reducing exposure to silica dust, ensuring continuity of treatment of TB or extended anti-TB treatment, management of the situation by occupational health professionals, prevention of oscillating migration, providing workers with compensation, training and education in occupational health.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesizing, characterizing, and toxicity evaluating of Phycocyanin-ZnO nanorod composites: A back to nature approaches.

TL;DR: When it comes to PHY-ZnO NRs, a protective effect for phycocyanin was detected which declined the level of ROS content as confirmed by fluorescent microscopy, and deserve to be deemed as a nano-drug candidate for further researches.
