The scheme, termed as percolative microcavity synthesis, involves the use of a granular medium with percolative microcavities which facilitate nearly similar grain size/shape dependent reaction zones limiting intrinsic growth inhomogeneities, enabling particle size/shape control. The viability of the process is demonstrated for the synthesis of gold nanoparticles by a plant extract based biological method as well as a chemical method.

Its hemagglutinating activity was inhibited by glycoproteins possessing N-linked as well as O-linked glycans. The thermodynamics and kinetics of binding of glycans and glycoproteins to F. solani lectin Was Studied using SUH ace plasmon resonance. The lectin showed high affinity for asialofetuin, asia-lofibrinogen, asialofibrinogen, and thyroglobulin: and comparatively low affinity for mucin, fetuin, fibrinogen, and holotransferrin. Glycoproteins showed glycans with significant contribution from enthalpy and positive entropy, suggesting several fold higher affinity than their corresponding g the involvement of non-polar protein-protein interaction. Moreover, the higher affinity of the glycoproteins was due to their faster association rates and low activation energy. (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc.

Out of the 40 fungal cultures screened, one fungus Gliocladium sp. was found to produce taxol and 10-DABIII (10-deacetyl baccatin III). These compounds were purified by TLC and HPLC and characterized using UV-spectroscopy, ESI-MS, MS/MS, and proton NMR. One liter of Gliocladium sp. culture yielded 10 mu g of taxol and 65 mu g of 10-DABIII.

Moreover, these methods are eco-unfriendly and cumbersome, yield bigger particles, and agglomerate because of not being capped by capping agents. In contrast, biological synthesis of inorganic nanomaterials occurs under ambient conditions, namely room temperature, atmospheric pressure, and physiological pH. These methods are reliable, eco-friendly, and cheap. In this paper, we report for the first time the extracellular and intracellular synthesis of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) using living peanut seedlings. The formed GNPs were highly stable in solution and inside the plant tissue. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that extracellular GNPs distributions were in the form of monodispersed nanoparticles. The nanoparticles ranged from 4 to 6 nm in size. The intercellular nanoparticles were of oval shape and size ranged from 5 to 50 nm. Both extracellular and intracellular nanoparticles were further characterized by standard techniques. The formed GNPs inside the plant tissue were estimated by inductively coupled plasma spectrometry. This opens up an exciting possibility of a plant-based nanoparticle synthesis strategy, wherein the nanoparticles may be entrapped in the biomass in the form of a film or produced in the solution, both of which have interesting applications.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;1.348&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Khan, Shadab Ali</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ahmad, Absar</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phase, size and shape transformation by fungal biotransformation of bulk TiO2</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chemical Engineering Journal</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Anatase</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biotransformation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brookite</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">humicola sp</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TiO2</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AUG</style></date></pub-dates></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PO BOX 564, 1001 LAUSANNE, SWITZERLAND</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">230</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">367-371</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Nanosynthesis is an ever expanding frontier in recent years in view of its implications to many future technologies covering diverse fields. Considerable progress has been made realizing high quality synthesis of elemental nanomaterials as well as compounds as chemical, biological and physical routes. The issue of technologically viable large scale synthesis still continues to be a challenge. Here we demonstrate a novel environmentally friendly top down approach to nanosynthesis which exploits the strength and peculiarities of fungus based bioleaching in extracting radicals from compounds and then providing them with a reactive as well as capping environment. Thus protein capped nanoparticles of TiO2 (5-28 nm, circular and brookite phase) are formed directly from micron size (150-250 nm, disc shape, anatase phase) powder by exposing them to a medium of fungus Humicola sp. at just 50 degrees C. The fungus Humicola sp. is not only useful for the synthesis of nanoparticles but also for the transformation of shape, phase and size of TiO2. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.

The nanoparticle-based therapeutics against the protein aggregation in AD is also taking a lead especially with amyloid-beta as a primary target. In this work, we have screened for the first time protein-capped (PC) metal nanoparticles for their potency in inhibiting Tau aggregation in vitro. We present a novel function of PC-Fe3O4 and PC-CdS nanoparticles as potent Tau aggregation inhibitors by fluorescence spectrometry, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and electron microscopy. We demonstrate that the biologically synthesized PC-metal nanoparticles, especially iron oxide do not affect the viability of neuroblastoma cells. Moreover, PC-CdS nanoparticles show dual properties of inhibition and disaggregation of Tau. Thus, the nanoparticles can take a lead as potent Tau aggregation inhibitors and can be modified for specific drug delivery due to their very small size. The current work presents unprecedented strategy to design anti-Tau aggregation drugs, which provides interesting insights to understand the role of biological nanostructures in Alzheimer's disease.&lt;br /&gt;
