Abstract
Bacterial antimicrobial resistance is posed to become a major hazard to global health in the 21st century. An aggravating issue is the stalled antibiotic research pipeline, which requires the development of new therapeutic strategies to combat antibiotic-resistant infections. Nanotechnology has entered into this scenario bringing up the opportunity to use nanocarriers capable of transporting and delivering antimicrobials to the target site, overcoming bacterial resistant barriers. Among them, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are receiving growing attention due to their unique features, including large drug loading capacity, biocompatibility, tunable pore sizes and volumes, and functionalizable silanol-rich surface. This perspective article outlines the recent research advances in the design and development of organically modified MSNs to fight bacterial infections. First, a brief introduction to the different mechanisms of bacterial resistance is presented. Then, we review the recent scientific approaches to engineer multifunctional MSNs conceived as an assembly of inorganic and organic building blocks, against bacterial resistance. These elements include specific ligands to target planktonic bacteria, intracellular bacteria, or bacterial biofilm; stimuli-responsive entities to prevent antimicrobial cargo release before arriving at the target; imaging agents for diagnosis; additional constituents for synergistic combination antimicrobial therapies; and aims to improve the therapeutic outcomes. Finally, this manuscript addresses the current challenges and future perspectives on this hot research area.

Abstract
The present review details a chronological description of the events that took place during the development of mesoporous materials, their different synthetic routes and their use as drug delivery systems. The outstanding textural properties of these materials quickly inspired their translation to the nanoscale dimension leading to mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). The different aspects of introducing pharmaceutical agents into the pores of these nanocarriers, together with their possible biodistribution and clearance routes, would be described here. The development of smart nanocarriers that are able to release a high local concentration of the therapeutic cargo on-demand after the application of certain stimuli would be reviewed here, together with their ability to deliver the therapeutic cargo to precise locations in the body. The huge progress in the design and development of MSNs for biomedical applications, including the potential treatment of different diseases, during the last 20 years will be collated here, together with the required work that still needs to be done to achieve the clinical translation of these materials. This review was conceived to stand out from past reports since it aims to tell the story of the development of mesoporous materials and their use as drug delivery systems by some of the story makers, who could be considered to be among the pioneers in this area.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2022; 238:113601.

Abstract
The toxicological properties of different silica particles functionalised with essential oil components (EOCs) were herein assessed using the in vivo model C. elegans. In particular, the effects of the acute and long-term exposure to three silica particle types (SAS, MCM-41 micro, MCM-41 nano), either bare or functionalised with eugenol or vanillin, were evaluated on different biological parameters of nematodes. Acute exposure to the different particles did not reduce nematodes survival, brood growth or locomotion, but reproduction was impaired by all the materials, except for vanillin-functionalised MCM-41 nano. Moreover, long-term exposure to particles led to strongly inhibited nematodes growth and reproduction. The eugenol-functionalised particles exhibited higher functionalisation yields and had the strongest effects during acute and long-term exposures. Overall, the vanillin-functionalised particles displayed milder acute toxic effects on reproduction than pristine materials, but severer toxicological responses for the 96-hour exposure assays. Our findings suggest that the EOC type anchored to silica surfaces and functionalisation yield are crucial for determining the toxicological effects of particles on C. elegans. The results obtained with this alternative in vivo model can help to anticipate potential toxic responses to these new materials for human health and the environment.

Abstract
Foodborne infection is one of the leading sources of infections spreading across the world. Foodborne pathogens are recognized as multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens posing a significant problem in the food industry and healthy consumers resulting in enhanced economic burden, and nosocomial infections. The continued search for enhanced microbial detection tools has piqued the interest of the CRISPR-Cas system and Nanoparticles. CRISPR-Cas system is present in the bacterial genome of some prokaryotes and is repurposed as a theragnostic tool against MDR pathogens. Nanoparticles and composites have also emerged as an efficient tool in theragnostic applications against MDR pathogens. The diagnostic limitations of the CRISPR-Cas system are believed to be overcome by a synergistic combination of the nanoparticles system and CRISPR-Cas using nanoparticles as vehicles. In this review, we have discussed the diagnostic application of CRISPR-Cas technologies along with their potential usage in applications like phage resistance, phage vaccination, strain typing, genome editing, and antimicrobial. we have also elucidated the antimicrobial and detection role of nanoparticles against foodborne MDR pathogens. Moreover, the novel combinatorial approach of CRISPR-Cas and nanoparticles for their synergistic effects in pathogen clearance and drug delivery vehicles has also been discussed. Bacterial CRISPR Cas system are repurposed as a thergodiganostic tool against MDR pathogen. Combinatorial approach of CRISPR-Cas and Nanoparticle is used as delivery vehicle and clearing pathogens. CRISPR-Cas and Nanoparticles is a tool for the food safety profiling of MDR food-borne pathogen.

Abstract
This review focuses on the design of mesoporous silica nanoparticles for infection treatment. Written within a general context of contributions in the field, this manuscript highlights the major scientific achievements accomplished by professor Vallet-Regí's research group in the field of silica-based mesoporous materials for drug delivery. The aim is to bring out her pivotal role on the envisage of a new era of nanoantibiotics by using a deep knowledge on mesoporous materials as drug delivery systems and by applying cutting-edge technologies to design and engineer advanced nanoweapons to fight infection. This review has been divided in two main sections: the first part overviews the influence of the textural and chemical properties of silica-based mesoporous materials on the loading and release of antibiotic molecules, depending on the host-guest interactions. Furthermore, this section also remarks on the potential of molecular modelling in the design and comprehension of the performance of these release systems. The second part describes the more recent advances in the use of mesoporous silica nanoparticles as versatile nanoplatforms for the development of novel targeted and stimuli-responsive antimicrobial nanoformulations for future application in personalized infection therapies.

Abstract
In the twenty-first century food sector, nanotechnological processing is a new frontier that has vibrant impact on enhancing the food quality, nutritional value, food safety, and nano-fortified functional foods aspects. In addition, the added-value of various robust nano-scale materials facilitates the targeted delivery of nutraceutical ingredients and treatment of obesity and comorbidities. The recent advancement in nanomaterial-assisted palatability enhancement of healthy foods opened up a whole new area of research and development in food nanoscience. However, there is no comprehensive review available on promises of nanotechnology in the food industry in the existing literature. Thus, herein, an effort has been made to cover this leftover literature gap by spotlighting the new nanotechnological frontier and their future scope in food engineering for better health. Following a brief introduction, promises of nanotechnology have revolutionized the twenty-first century food sector of the modern world. Next, recent and relevant examples discuss the exploitation and deployment of nanomaterials in food to attain certain health benefits. A detailed insight is also given by discussing the role of nano-processing in nutraceutical delivery to treat obesity and comorbidities. The latter half of the work focuses on improving healthy foods' palatability and food safety aspects to meet the growing consumer demands. Furthermore, marketed products and public acceptance of nanotechnologically designed food items as well as future prospects are also covered herein.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to design, develop, and quantify the effectiveness of a simple method to facilitate the smart delivery of antimicrobial essential oils (EOs) via their absorption into a chemically bound high surface area support material. To this end, Santa Barbara Amorphous 15 (SBA-15) was functionalized by means of a post-synthetic reaction using (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) to create an amine-terminated SBA-15 (SBA-APTES), and functionalization was confirmed by FTIR, TGA, and N2 isotherm analysis. Amine-modified SBA-15 was then grafted to a 3-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTS)-modified silicon (Si) surface (Si-GPTS), and subsequent attachment to the GPTS-modified surface was confirmed through XPS, dynamic contact angle, and SEM analysis. The smart delivery devices (SBA-15 and SBA-APTES) were then loaded with antimicrobial oregano essential oil (OEO) and the antimicrobial activity was assessed against common food spoilage microorganisms Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas fluorescens. Antimicrobial activity results indicate that both SBA-OEO and SBA-APTES-OEO have good antimicrobial activity and that functionalization of bare SBA-15 with APTES has no effect on antimicrobial activity (P > 0.05) compared to SBA-OEO. Moreover, it appears that direct surface coating of the modified SBA to a surface substrate may not provide a significant quantity of oil needed to elicit an antimicrobial response. Nevertheless, given the strong absorption properties of SBA materials, good antimicrobial activity, and the GRAS nature of SBA-OEO and SBA-APTES-OEO, the results found in this study open potential applications of the functionalized carrier materials.

Abstract
The rise of antibiotic resistance and the growing number of biofilm-related infections make bacterial infections a serious threat for global human health. Nanomedicine has entered into this scenario by bringing new alternatives to design and develop effective antimicrobial nanoweapons to fight against bacterial infection. Among them, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) exhibit unique characteristics that make them ideal nanocarriers to load, protect and transport antimicrobial cargoes to the target bacteria and/or biofilm, and release them in response to certain stimuli. The combination of infection-targeting and stimuli-responsive drug delivery capabilities aims to increase the specificity and efficacy of antimicrobial treatment and prevent undesirable side effects, becoming a ground-breaking alternative to conventional antibiotic treatments. This review focuses on the scientific advances developed to date in MSNs for infection-targeted stimuli-responsive antimicrobials delivery. The targeting strategies for specific recognition of bacteria are detailed. Moreover, the possibility of incorporating anti-biofilm agents with MSNs aimed at promoting biofilm penetrability is overviewed. Finally, a comprehensive description of the different scientific approaches for the design and development of smart MSNs able to release the antimicrobial payloads at the infection site in response to internal or external stimuli is provided.

Abstract
Available disinfection methods and therapies against Helicobacter pylori have multiple disadvantages, such as increased prevalence of antibiotic-resistant strains, which requires the search for novel effective antimicrobial agents against H. pylori. Among them, naturally-occurring antimicrobial compounds, like essential oil components (EOCs), have been reported as substances with anti-H. pylori potential. To avoid the disadvantages associated with using EOCs in their free form, including volatility, low water solubility and intense sensory properties, their immobilisation in inert supports has recently been developed. This study sought to evaluate the inhibitory properties of EOCs immobilised on silica microparticles against H. pylori and to elucidate the mechanism of action of the immobilised antimicrobials. After the preparation and characterisation of the antimicrobial supports, the susceptibility of H. pylori in the presence of the immobilised compounds was assessed by plate count, fluorescent viability staining and direct viable count-fluorescent in situ hybridisation analyses. The antimicrobial supports were found to inhibit H. pylori growth, and to induce morphological and metabolic alterations to the H. pylori membrane, with a minimum bactericidal concentration value between 25 and 50 μg/ml according to the tested EOC. These findings indicate that immobilised EOCs can be used as potential antimicrobial agents for H. pylori clearance and treatment.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is a rapidly developing toolbox that provides solutions to numerous challenges in the food industry and meet public demands for healthier and safer food products. The diversity of nanostructures and their vast, tunable functionality drives their inclusion in food products and packaging materials to improve their nutritional quality through bioactive fortification and probiotics encapsulation, enhance their safety due to their antimicrobial and sensing capabilities and confer novel sensorial properties. In this food nanotechnology state-of-the-art communication, matrix materials with particular focus on food-grade components, existing and novel production techniques, and current and potential applications in the fields of food quality, safety and preservation, nutrient bioaccessibility and digestibility will be detailed. Additionally, a thorough analysis of potential strategies to assess the safety of these novel nanostructures is presented.

[PMID: 30558308 PMCID: PMC6320763 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics10040279] [Citation(s) in RCA: 55] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2018] [Revised: 12/07/2018] [Accepted: 12/07/2018] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Mesoporous silica materials (MSM) have a great surface area and a high pore volume, meaning that they consequently have a large loading capacity, and have been demonstrated to be unique candidates for the treatment of different pathologies, including bacterial infection. In this text, we review the multiple ways of action in which MSM can be used to fight bacterial infection, including early detection, drug release, targeting bacteria or biofilm, antifouling surfaces, and adjuvant capacity. This review focus mainly on those that act as a drug delivery system, and therefore that have an essential characteristic, which is their great loading capacity. Since MSM have advantages in all stages of combatting bacterial infection; its prevention, detection and finally in its treatment, we can venture to talk about them as the "nightmare of bacteria".
