Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most common microorganisms causing infections of severe skin wounds. Antibiotic or antiseptic treatments are crucial to prevent and curb these infections. Antiseptics have been reported to be cytotoxic to skin cells and few studies evaluate the impact of commonly used antibiotics. This study evaluates how clinical antibiotics affect skin cells' viability, proliferation, migration, and cytokine secretion and defines the highest non-cytotoxic concentrations that maintain antibacterial activity. Cell proliferation, viability, and migration were evaluated on cell monolayers. Cytokines related to the wound healing process were determined. The minimum inhibitory concentrations and the impact on bacterial biofilm were assessed. Results showed that 0.02 mg/mL ciprofloxacin and 1 mg/mL meropenem are the highest non-cytotoxic concentrations for fibroblasts and keratinocytes while 1.25 mg/mL amikacin and 0.034 mg/mL colistin do not affect fibroblasts' viability and cytokine secretion but have an impact on keratinocytes. These concentrations are above the minimum inhibitory concentration but only amikacin could eradicate the biofilm. For the other antibiotics, cytotoxic concentrations are needed to eradicate the biofilm. Combinations with colistin at non-cytotoxic concentrations effectively eliminate the biofilm. These results provide information about the concentrations required when administering topical antibiotic treatments on skin lesions, and how these antibiotics affect wound management therapies. This study set the basis for the development of novel antibacterial wound healing strategies such as antibiotic artificial skin substitutes.

Abstract
AMC@SiO2 core@shell nanocarriers (AMC: amikacin) are realized and contain an exceptionally high drug load of 0.8 mg mg-1 (i.e. 80% AMC of total nanocarrier mass). They are prepared via a solvent-antisolvent approach with AMC nanoparticles formed in a first step, which are then covered and stabilised by a thin silica shell in a one-pot synthesis. In total, the core@shell nanocarriers exhibit a mean diameter of 240 nm with an inner AMC core of 200 nm and an outer silica shell of 20 nm. Subsequent to synthesis, the nanocarriers can be stored in frozen dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and applied directly after warming to room temperature with particle contents of 5 mg mL-1. Size, structure, and composition of the AMC@SiO2 core@shell nanocarriers are evidenced by electron microscopy (SEM, TEM), spectroscopic methods (EDXS, FT-IR, UV-Vis), as well as X-ray powder diffraction and elemental analysis. As proof-of-concept, the AMC release and the activity of the novel nanocarriers are tested against two relevant, difficult-to-treat and notoriously multidrug resistant, bacterial pathogens: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb.) and Mycobacterium abscessus (M.abs.). Colloidal stability, storage stability, high drug load, and activity of the AMC@SiO2 core@shell nanocarriers are promising for, e.g., aerosol-type pulmonal application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multidrug-resistant bacteria are one of the world's biggest health problems; therefore, improving the spectrum of action of antibiotics could be necessary to reverse this situation. Amikacin and silver salts have well-known antimicrobial properties. However, both drugs lost their effectiveness against some bacteria, such as Acinetobacter baumannii. This work aims to develop a nanodrug from silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) functionalized with Amikacin against multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. METHODS AgNPs were produced using the bottom-up methodology and functionalized with Amikacin modified by the carbodiimide-based chemistry, forming AgNPs@Amikacin. Susceptibility tests were performed using Amikacin-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii strains to assess the bacteriostatic and bactericidal potential of the developed nanodrug. The clinical strains were induced to form a biofilm, and biomass quantification and the metabolic activity were determined. RESULTS The AgNPs have a hydrodynamic diameter of the particles with a bimodal distribution, with a size of 37.84 nm. The FT-IR spectrum of AgNPs@Amikacin exhibits vibrational modes corresponding to Amikacin, confirming the conjugation to AgNPs. Susceptibility testing demonstrated a minimal inhibitory and bactericidal concentration of < 0.5 µg/mL. The AgNPs@Amikacin reduced the biofilm metabolic activity of Acinetobacter baumannii at rates ≥ 50%, characterized by the minimal biofilm inhibition concentrations. CONCLUSIONS Results demonstrate a promising development of a new nanodrug with lower concentrations, less toxicity, and greater efficacy against multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.

Abstract
In this work, date-fruit syrup waste extract (DSWE) was used as an antioxidant additive to develop active gelatin films with enhanced food preservation properties. The effect of DSWE content (5, 10, 15, and 25 wt%) on the mechanical, physical, and antioxidant properties of the gelatin films were analyzed. Total phenolic content and antioxidant assay analysis revealed that the active compounds in blend films are highly migrated to the aqueous phase than the fatty medium. In the canola oil stability studies, gelatin/25 wt% DSWE film immersed oil sample exhibited low peroxide (POV) and p-anisidine (PV) values of 28.6 and 7.1, respectively, compared to the control oil (POV = 41.7 and PV = 13.1) in the air atmosphere and 45 °C for 30 days. Totox values of canola oil samples were decreased as a function of DSWE content in the films, indicating that polyphenols in DSWE are significantly resistant to oil's lipid oxidation.

Abstract
Nanopesticides have great potential applications due to their stability enhancement, sustained release and target affinity. In this work, a temperature-responsive nanocarrier for imidacloprid (IMI) was constructed using mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) as the core and paraffin wax (PW) as the outer layer. IMI was loaded into MSNs by screening the drug/carrier mass ratios to obtain the optimized IMI/MSNs formulation with a high drug loading (27.47 %). IMI/MSNs were functionalized with octadecyltrimethoxysilane (C18TMS) and further coated with a temperature-responsive trigger (PW) through hydrophobic interactions. Thus, a temperature-responsive nanocarrier for IMI (PW/IMI/MSNs) was constructed. Fourier transforms infrared (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm measurements confirmed the successful loading of IMI into MSNs and the coating of PW on the surface of the IMI/MSNs. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyses indicated that PW/IMI/MSNs with diameters approximately 100 nm had an ordered hexagonal mesoporous structure with a surface coating of approximately 6 nm. In addition, an in vitro release experiment showed that PW/IMI/MSNs displayed a temperature-responsive sustained release property. Correspondingly, the bioactivity assay of the PW/IMI/MSNs showed that the insecticidal activity greatly increased with temperature. This formulation is expected to have potential applications in some high-temperature areas, such as Turpan in Xinjiang Province, for improving the utilization efficiency of IMI.
