Abstract
The rise of antimicrobial resistance caused by inappropriate use of these agents in various settings has become a global health threat. Nanotechnology offers the potential for the synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) with antimicrobial activity, such as iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs). The use of IONPs is a promising way to overcome antimicrobial resistance or pathogenicity because of their ability to interact with several biological molecules and to inhibit microbial growth. In this review, we outline the pivotal findings over the past decade concerning methods for the green synthesis of IONPs using bacteria, fungi, plants, and organic waste. Subsequently, we delve into the primary challenges encountered in green synthesis utilizing diverse organisms and organic materials. Furthermore, we compile the most common methods employed for the characterization of these IONPs. To conclude, we highlight the applications of these IONPs as promising antibacterial, antifungal, antiparasitic, and antiviral agents.

Abstract
Magnetic bimetallic nanoparticles find many industrial and clinical applications in the field of water treatment, antibacterial and anticancer activities. Therefore, the current article reports green synthesis using oleo-polyol as a surface modifier and synthesis agent for bimetallic magnetic magnesium ferrite nanoparticles. The role of hydroxyl functionality of castor oil (a natural polyol) on the enhancement of structural, morphological, magnetic, and particle size properties has also been discussed. These properties were characterized using FTIR, XRD spectroscopy, SEM, AFM, and TEM microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) techniques. The effect of calcination temperatures (600-900 °C) on particle size (23-40 nm to 500-600 nm), crystallite sizes (73.15-292.67 nm), and saturation magnetization (20.87, 23.07, 32.39, and 33.13 emu g-1) was analyzed. The influence of calcined temperatures on the anticancer activity of these nanoparticles has also been investigated in vitro using lung cancer cells (A549). Their biocompatibility, cytotoxicity, flow cytometry, and statistical analysis against lung cancer cells (A549) have been discussed. The green synthesis of magnesium nanoferrite particles using natural polyol and their application as anticancer agents against lung cancer cells (A549) have not been reported previously. They have exhibited far superior IC50 values and anticancer activity as compared to other reported metal oxides and magnesium oxide nanoparticles.

Abstract
A simple method of preparing amorphous nickel ferrite nanoparticles of about 5 nm diameter is described. These particles were characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and selected area electron diffraction (SAED). The nanoparticles were evaluated for their use as a magnetic material for immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC). The ferrite nanoparticles bound to bovine serum albumin (BSA) and the binding fitted Langmuir isotherm model. A high capacity of 916 mg BSA/g dried nanoparticle was observed. Six proteins (Soybean trypsin inhibitor (STI), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), papain, catalase, β-galactosidase and casein) were used and all were found to bind at >90% level (except papain which showed 84% binding). All the proteins except LDH and β-galactosidase could be eluted with 1 M imidazole and with % activity recovery of >80%. Papain could be purified from its dried crude latex by 5-fold and purified papain showed a single band on SDS-PAGE. These nanoparticles constitute a high capacity and are magnetic material useful for IMAC and do not require any pre-functionalization.

Abstract
In recent times, nanoparticles (NPs) have found increasing interest owing to their size, large surface areas, distinctive structures, and unique properties, making them suitable for various industrial and biomedical applications. Biogenic synthesis of NPs using microbes is a recent trend and a greener approach than physical and chemical methods of synthesis, which demand higher costs, greater energy consumption, and complex reaction conditions and ensue hazardous environmental impact. Several microorganisms are known to trap metals in situ and convert them into elemental NPs forms. They are found to accumulate inside and outside of the cell as well as in the periplasmic space. Despite the toxicity of NPs, the driving factor for the production of NPs inside microorganisms remains unelucidated. Several reports suggest that nanotization is a way of stress response and biodefense mechanism for the microbe, which involves metal excretion/accumulation across membranes, enzymatic action, efflux pump systems, binding at peptides, and precipitation. Moreover, genes also play an important role for microbial nanoparticle biosynthesis. The resistance of microbial cells to metal ions during inward and outward transportation leads to precipitation. Accordingly, it becomes pertinent to understand the interaction of the metal ions with proteins, DNA, organelles, membranes, and their subsequent cellular uptake. The elucidation of the mechanism also allows us to control the shape, size, and monodispersity of the NPs to develop large-scale production according to the required application. This article reviews different means in microbial synthesis of NPs focusing on understanding the cellular, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms of nanotization of metals.

Abstract
In the recent times, nanomaterials have emerged in the field of biology, medicine, electronics, and agriculture due to their immense applications. Owing to their nanoscale sizes, they present large surface/volume ratio, characteristic structures, and similar dimensions to biomolecules resulting in unique properties for biomedical applications. The chemical and physical methods to synthesize nanoparticles have their own limitations which can be overcome using biological methods for the synthesis. Moreover, through the biogenic synthesis route, the usage of microorganisms has offered a reliable, sustainable, safe, and environmental friendly technique for nanosynthesis. Bacterial, algal, fungal, and yeast cells are known to transport metals from their environment and convert them to elemental nanoparticle forms which are either accumulated or secreted. Additionally, robust nanocarriers have also been developed using viruses. In order to prevent aggregation and promote stabilization of the nanoparticles, capping agents are often secreted during biosynthesis. Microbial nanoparticles find biomedical applications in rapid diagnostics, imaging, biopharmaceuticals, drug delivery systems, antimicrobials, biomaterials for tissue regeneration as well as biosensors. The major challenges in therapeutic applications of microbial nanoparticles include biocompatibility, bioavailability, stability, degradation in the gastro-intestinal tract, and immune response. Thus, the current review article is focused on the microbe-mediated synthesis of various nanoparticles, the different microbial strains explored for such synthesis along with their current and future biomedical applications.

Abstract
The present study describes preparation of cellulose incorporated magnetic nano-biocomposites (CNPs) by using cellulose as base material. The prepared CNPs were characterised by SEM, EDAX, TEM, XRD, and FT-IR and found to exhibit an intrinsic peroxidase-like activity with a Km and Vmax of 550 μM and 3.8 μM/ml/min, respectively. The CNPs exhibited higher pH and thermal stability compared to commercial peroxidase. These nanocomposites were able to completely remove (i) a persistent azo dye, methyl orange at a concentration of 50 ppm, within 60 min under acidic conditions (pH 3.0) and also (ii) decolourize commercial textile dye mixture under acidic conditions within 30 min. CNP-mediated degradation of dyes into simple products was further confirmed by UV-Vis and AT-IR spectroscopy The added advantage of CNPs separation after decolourization by simple magnet due to their magnetic properties and consequent reusability makes them fairy attractive system for dye remediation from environmental samples or textile industries effluents.

Abstract
Background:Cholesterol oxidases are bacterial oxidases widely used commercially for their application in the detection of cholesterol in blood serum, clinical or food samples. Additionally, these enzymes find potential applications as an insecticide, synthesis of anti-fungal antibiotics and a biocatalyst to transform a number of sterol and non-sterol compounds. However, the soluble form of cholesterol oxidases are found to be less stable when applied at higher temperatures, broader pH range, and incur higher costs. These disadvantages can be overcome by immobilization on carrier matrices.Methods:This review focuses on the immobilization of cholesterol oxidases on various macro/micro matrices as well as nanoparticles and their potential applications. Selection of appropriate support matrix in enzyme immobilization is of extreme importance. Recently, nanomaterials have been used as a matrix for immobilization of enzyme due to their large surface area and small size. The bio-compatible length scales and surface chemistry of nanoparticles provide reusability, stability and enhanced performance characteristics for the enzyme-nanoconjugates.Conclusion:In this review, immobilization of cholesterol oxidase on nanomaterials and other matrices are discussed. Immobilization on nanomatrices has been observed to increase the stability and activity of enzymes. This enhances the applicability of cholesterol oxidases for various industrial and clinical applications such as in biosensors.

Abstract
In the present study, we report in vitro synthesis of silver and gold nanoparticles (NPs) using cellulase enzyme in a single step reaction. Synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by UV-VIS spectroscopy, Dynamic Light Spectroscopy (DLS), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Circular Dichroism (CD) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). UV-visible studies shows absorption band at 415nm and 520nm for silver and gold NPs respectively due to surface plasmon resonance. Sizes of NPs as shown by TEM are 5-25nm for silver and 5-20nm for gold. XRD peaks confirmed about phase purity and crystallinity of silver and gold NPs. FTIR data shows presence of amide I peak on both the NPs. The cellulase assisted synthesized NPs were further exploited as immobilization matrix for cellulase enzyme. Thermal stability analysis reveals that the immobilized cellulase on synthesized NPs retained 77-80% activity as compared to free enzyme. While reusability data suggests immobilized cellulase can be efficiently used up to sixth cycles with minimum loss of enzyme activity. The secondary structural analysis of cellulase enzyme during the synthesis of NPs and also after immobilization of cellulase on these NPs was carried out by CD spectroscopy.
