At the same time, the bacterial cell becomes a reservoir for silver. This study aims to test the microcidal effect of silver-killed E. coli O104: H4 and its supernatant against fresh viable cells of the same bacterium and some other species, including E. coli O157: H7, Multidrug Resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Silver-killed bacteria were examined by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). Agar well diffusion assay was used to test the antimicrobial efficacy and durability of both pellet suspension and supernatant of silver-killed E. coli O104:H4 against other bacteria. Both silver-killed bacteria and supernatant showed prolonged antimicrobial activity against the tested strains that extended to 40 days.

  • Study of Mercury (II)
    Journal of Biotech Research [ISSN: 1944-3285] 2011; 3:72-77 Study of mercury (II) chloride tolerant bacterial isolates from Baghmati River with estimation of plasmid size and growth variation for the high mercury (II) resistant Enterobacter spp. Vivek Bhakta Mathema1, *, Bal Krishna Chand Thakuri1, Mika Sillanpää2, Reena Amatya Shrestha3 1Central Department of Biotechnology, Tribhuvan University, Kirtipur, Nepal; 2Faculty of Technology, Lappeenranta University of Technology, Patteristonkatu 1, FI-50100 Mikkeli, Finland; 3Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA, USA. A total of three mercury resistant belonging to genus Enterobacter, Streptococcus and Pseudomonas were isolated from river banks of Baghmati in Kathmandu and were further categorized on the basis of their tolerance to mercury (II) chloride. Among all these isolates Enterobacter strain expressed highest degree of resistance towards Hg (II) chloride showing distinct growth in medium with upto 80 µg/ml of HgCl2 . Excessive slime production along with delayed pattern of growth and lower viability was observed for the isolate under increasing concentrations of Hg (II) supplemented liquid culture medium. Upon investigating total genetic content of this isolate, occurrence of plasmid with approximate 18 kb size and susceptible to mercuric chloride after plasmid curing suggests a plasmid mediated tolerance. *Corresponding author: Vivek Bhakta Mathema, Central Department of Biotechnology, Tribhuvan University, Kirtipur, Nepal.

ABSTRACT Metals like mercury, arsenic, copper and silver have been used in various forms as antimicrobials for thousands of years. The use of metals in treatment was mentioned in Ebers Papyrus (1500BC); i.e, copper to decrease inflammation & iron to overcome anemia. Copper has been registered at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as the earliest solid antimicrobial material. Copper is used for the treatment of different E. coli, MRSA, Pseudomonas infections. Advantage of use of silver is it has low toxicity to human’s cells than bacteria.It is less susceptible to gram +ve bacteria than gram –bacteria due to its thicker cell wall. Zinc is found to be active against Streptococcus pneumonia, Campylobacter jejuni.

  • CMI, Vaccines and Vaccination by Dr
    CMI, Vaccines and Vaccination By Dr. Jonathan Sarfati – https://creation.com/dr-jonathan-sarfati Source: https://creation.com/cmi-vaccination , 13-5-2018 Introduction As a biblical, scientific organization, we often get asked by inquirers about our position on a range of related issues. One such issue is vaccinations. We realize that for some this is a highly charged issue that can engender strong emotions. Unfortunately, there is much confusion and even emotion, even in Christian circles, as a result of misinformation that is proliferated on the Internet. Often, with Christians, much of the thinking is driven by well-meaning, but misapplied biblical statements and, in some cases, even conspiratorial (anti-government or anti-establishment) constructs—an area outside of CMI’s purview. CMI takes a generally pro-vaccination position, as the best trade-off in this fallen world, because the benefits overall greatly outweigh the harms. This is consistent with a Christian ministry, because disease and suffering are the results of the Curse at the Fall, and Jesus himself alleviated the effects of the Curse. It is a scientific and historical fact that vaccines have saved millions of lives. Thus, as a part of our duty of care for our staff and supporters, we should support medical treatments with a proven record of high safety and effectiveness. And at my suggestion, the CMI-US office, following the biblical principle of proper care for work- ers (Colossians 4:1, Ephesians 6:9), pays for influenza (‘flu’) shots for all employees and their de- pendent family members, if they choose to obtain them.

  • Understanding the Oligodynamic Effect: Can Metals Kill Bacteria?
    CALIFORNIA STATE SCIENCE FAIR 2015 PROJECT SUMMARY Name(s) Project Number Michelle J. He J1610 Project Title Understanding the Oligodynamic Effect: Can Metals Kill Bacteria? Abstract Objectives/Goals The purpose of this experiment was to look for correlations of the properties of metals and their antibacterial strength. This experiment looks into the oligodynamic effect. This effect is little studied and relates to how certain metals kill bacteria on contact. Certain metals such as copper are more oligodynamic than others, and this may be due to an oxidation process. Finding trends between the properties of the metals such as conductivity and reactivity may help understand the mechanisms of the effect. Methods/Materials Two types of bacteria, E.coli, and S. epidermidis, were tested. They were grown on agar plates in an incubator. Eight types of metals were tested. They were titanium, aluminum, zinc, nickel, tin, copper, and silver. The metals were cut into 2.5 cm squares. Results In order from most to least effective, the metals were copper, silver, tin, titanium, nickel, aluminum, and zinc. The kill rate of copper was much higher than any other metal. The copper removed over 90% of the bacteria growing under the plate. Zinc apparently encouraged growth the most. Between the two bacteria, neither was majorly more susceptible to the metal. Conclusions/Discussion There were not obvious patterns among the properties of the metals in both conductivity and reactivity. Much of the data for all the metals was similar. Only copper and zinc stood out distinctly, the two outliers. This data from this experiment reinforces evidence about the antibacterial properties of copper.

Article Received on 15/04/2017 Article Revised on 04/05/2017 Article Accepted on 25/05/2017 ABSTRACT Though there has been improvement in providing safe drinking water in developing nations such as India, the adverse impact of unsafe water continues. Today, inadequate access to clean drinking water and sanitation are among the biggest environmental problems of India, threatening both urban and rural populations. Microbially unsafe water is still a major concern world over. Although many water-purification methods exist, these are expensive and beyond the reach of many people, especially in rural areas. Copper and silver have been used as disinfectants since ancient times and recent research has demonstrated that antimicrobial copper and silver surfaces may have practical applications in healthcare and related areas. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of copper and silver vessels against important diarrhoegenic bacteria including Escherichia coli, enteropathogenicSalmonella typhi. When drinking water was stored in copper vessels, the concentration of copper released in the water after 24h of storage was found to be 0.862 mg/L.

Fiori2 1Universidade do Extremo Sul Catarinense, Departamento de Engenharia Química, Criciúma, SC, Brazil 2Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Departamento de Engenharia Química, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia Química, Florianópolis, SC, Brazil Abstract Antimicrobial materials have long been used as an effective means of reducing the risks posed to humans by fungi, bacteria and other microorganisms. These materials are essential in environments where cleanliness, comfort and hygiene are the predominant concerns. This work presents preliminary results for a bactericidal vitreous material that is produced by the incorporation of a silver ionic specimen through ionic exchange reactions. Powdered glass was submitted to ionic exchange in an ionic medium containing AgNO3 as silver ions source. Different AgNO3 concentrations in ionic medium and different particle sizes of the glass were used in the samples development. Microbiological analysis of the samples was made by disk diffusion method in the Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacterium species. Samples were still submitted to SEM-EDS, atomic absorption and X-ray diffraction techniques. Results showed that the bactericidal effect was dependent on AgNO3 concentration in the ionic exchange medium, but was not dependent on the particle size of the glass.
