AB  - Pertussis (whooping cough) has been nearly eradicated during the 20th century, first of all due to an organized and comprehensive vaccination campaign that lasted for decades. Generations of doctors educated in Serbia (and other countries) rarely had an opportunity to see the clinical picture of pertussis. However, during 2023, the number of registered cases of pertussis in Serbia has increased several times. This is why the health authorities were forced to declare danger of an epidemic. During 2023, in Belgrade, around 1000 cases were registered. During the two months of 2024, 400 cases were registered. Some of them have ended with lethal outcome. This paper reports for the first time the biosynthesis reaction and thermodynamic properties of biosynthesis (enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs energy) of Bordetella pertussis, the cause of whooping cough. Moreover, a mechanistic model of multiplication of B. pertussis was developed. The mechanistic model was related to the pathogenesis of pertussis.

AB  - Metasurfaces are currently among the most attractive research fields, in no small measure due to their usability as refractometric sensors, offering unparalleled sensitivity up to sensing single atoms or molecules. This is rooted in their ability to localize electromagnetic fields in volumes orders of magnitude below the diffraction limit. Numerous materials, both conductive (metals, transparent conductive oxides, graphene, MXenes…) and all-dielectric (oxides, low-loss semiconductors) can be used to build them, thus tailoring metasurfaces, imparting multifunctionalities and enhancing design freedom. However, the fundamental sensing mechanism is practically identical across refractometric platforms – spectral dispersion changes of scattering parameters due to a difference between the real parts of refractive index of the analyte and the environment. Here we describe the use of exceptional capabilities of metasurfaces in transforming optical space to recognize analytes with identical real parts of refractive index but different imaginary parts. We consider a metasurface biosensor with cruciform openings array in an ultrathin silicon layer on silica. We simulate variations of the imaginary part of the effective refractive index in the openings while keeping the real part constant. The circular power flow that increases the optical path, field localization and intrinsically low losses in the optical range jointly cause that adding even the minuscule amounts of analyte with slightly increased optical absorption significantly reduces transmission through the structure, despite its exceptionally low thickness. The described principle can be used to distinguish bio-analytes with identical real part of refractive index like RNA, DNA, proteins, lipids, but also non-biological analytes.

AB  - Materials from green resources boast a low carbon footprint, forming the foundation of
 the circular economy approach in materials science. Thus, in this study, waste poly(ethylene
terephthalate) (PET) was subjected to depolymerization using propylene glycol (PG), and
subsequent polycondensation with bio-based maleic anhydride (MA) produced unsaturated
 polyester resin (b-UPR). Bio-derived acryloyl-modified Kraft lignin (KfL-A) served as a vinyl
 reactive filler in the b-UPR matrix to create b-UPR/KfL-A composites. The structural
characterization of KfL-A and b-UPR involved the use of FTIR and NMR techniques. The
 mechanical properties of the newly fabricated composites were assessed through tensile strength,
 Vickers microhardness, and dynamic mechanical tests. The addition of KfL-A to the rigid b-UPR
 matrix enhanced material flexibility, resulting in less stiff and hard materials while preserving
 composite toughness. For instance, incorporating 10 wt.% of KfL-A in b-UPR led to a 17%
 reduction in hardness, a 48% decrease in tensile strength, and a 20% reduction in toughness.
 Positive environmental impact was achieved by incorporation of 64 wt.% of renewable and
 recycled raw material. Analogously prepared b-UPR/KfL composites showed structural
 inhomogeneity and somewhat better mechanical properties. Transmission (TEM) and scanning
(SEM) electron microscopies revealed a suitable relationship between mechanical and structural
 properties of composites in relation to the extent of KfL-A addition. The UL94V flammability
 rating confirmed that flame resistance increased proportionally with the KfL-A addition. Once
 deposited in a landfill, these composites are expected to disintegrate more easily than PET, causing less harm to the environment and contributing to sustainability in the plastics cycle.

AB  - Laser sintering, known as powder bed fusion–laser beam (PBF-LB), offers promising potential for the fabrication of patient-specific drugs. The aim of this study was to provide an insight into the PBF-LB process with regard to the process parameters, in particular the laser hatching distance, and its influence on the properties of zolpidem tartrate (ZT) tablets. PHARMACOAT® 603 was used as the polymer, while Candurin® Gold Sheen and AEROSIL® 200 were added to facilitate 3D printing. The particle size distribution of the powder blend showed that the layer height should be set to 100 µm, while the laser hatching distance was varied in five different steps (50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 µm), keeping the temperature and laser scanning speed constant. Increasing the laser hatching distance and decreasing the laser energy input led to a decrease in the colour intensity, mass, density and hardness of the ZT tablets, while the disintegration and dissolution rate were faster due to the more fragile bonds between the particles. The laser hatching distance also influenced the ZT dosage, indicating the importance of this process parameter in the production of presonalized drugs. The absence of drug-polymer interactions and the amorphization of the ZT were confirmed.

AB  - The aim of this paper is to provide insight into research and activities of in situ remediation to remove petroleum hydrocarbon pollutants from a contaminated aquifer’s sediment, located near two radial collector wells of a water supply system. It was decided that the most appropriate method for remediation of this aquifer’s sediment is in situ bioremediation because it is clean, efficient and sustainable technology. Before the start of the bioremediation process, it was necessary to isolate and cultivate the microorganisms present at the contamination site, so they could be later applied in the bioremediation process. The samples before and after the bioremediation were studied using both GC and GC × GC–MS to determine how the concentrations of contaminants changed over time. Additionally, in this paper, a spatiotemporal representation of the change in hydrocarbon content by depth within the zone of the highest contamination over time is shown. After 12 months of bioremediation, the hydrocarbon content in the samples decreased by 82.0%, and based on GCxGC-MS analysis, the order of degradation of various hydrocarbon groups was as follows: steranes (99.6%), isoprenoids (98.4%), benzene derivatives (98.4%), alkanes (97.2%), and terpenes (49.3%). The exponential decay model showed the greatest decomposition rate of hydrocarbons occurred at depths of 8–10 m, with an average decay constant of 0.227, independent of the initial concentration of hydrocarbons. To the best of our knowledge, to date, the described approach has not been applied to an aquifer (the simultaneous treatment of groundwater and its associated sediment layers).

AB  - Mercury emissions represent a significant risk to the environment and human health. Mercury is persistent and
can circulate in the environment for thousands of years, which is why treating this toxic metal is important.
Chitosan polymer is easily obtainable, and it has good mercury adsorption characteristics. This study aimed to
improve its capabilities to absorb mercury by immobilizing phycobiliproteins (PBPs) onto the surface of chitosan
beads (chitosan–PBPs). Phycobiliproteins, light-harvesting proteins from algae and cyanobacteria, have several
industrially essential applications. These proteins can bind heavy metals with high affinities. Protein extracts
obtained from both Arthrospira platensis, with C-phycocyanin (C-PC) as the primary protein, and Porphyra
yezoensis, with R-phycocyanin (R-PC) and R-phycoerythrin (R-PE) as the dominant PBPs, were covalently
immobilized onto chitosan beads. Beads with immobilized PBPs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy
and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Binding analysis showed that, on average, each chitosan
bead weighed 20 mg and immobilized 63.54 μg of PBPs from Spirulina and 44.12 μg of PBPs from Porphyra.
Immobilized proteins were still in their native state, with no visible color change months after immobilization.
Chitosan–PBPs and chitosan alone were tested for mercury adsorption at pH 4 and pH 7 by atomic absorption
spectroscopy. The tested concentration range of mercury was from 1 to 70 ppm. Affinity, calculated using
Henry’s binding isotherm, of chitosan–PBPs for mercury was twice as much higher at both pH values than
chitosan alone. Furthermore, chitosan-PBP beads were able to absorb more mercury than chitosan alone. These
results showed that the covalent immobilization of PBPs onto chitosan improves its mercury adsorption characteristics
and creates a more efficient eco-friendly adsorbent to potentially remove mercury ions in the tested
concentration range from polluted waters.

Immobilized proteins were still in their native state, with no visible color change months after immobilization.
Chitosan–PBPs and chitosan alone were tested for mercury adsorption at pH 4 and pH 7 by atomic absorption
spectroscopy. The tested concentration range of mercury was from 1 to 70 ppm. Affinity, calculated using
Henry’s binding isotherm, of chitosan–PBPs for mercury was twice as much higher at both pH values than
chitosan alone. Furthermore, chitosan-PBP beads were able to absorb more mercury than chitosan alone. These
results showed that the covalent immobilization of PBPs onto chitosan improves its mercury adsorption characteristics
and creates a more efficient eco-friendly adsorbent to potentially remove mercury ions in the tested
concentration range from polluted waters.",

AB  - Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health concern affecting approximately one billion individuals worldwide. End-stage kidney disease (ESKD), the most severe form of CKD, is
often accompanied by anemia. Peritoneal dialysis (PD), a common treatment for ESKD, utilizes the
peritoneum for solute transfer but is associated with complications including protein loss, including
transferrin (Tf) a key protein involved in iron transport. This study investigated Tf characteristics in
ESKD patients compared to healthy individuals using lectin microarray, spectroscopic techniques and immunocytochemical analysis to assess Tf interaction with transferrin receptors (TfRs). ESKD patients exhibited altered Tf glycosylation patterns, evidenced by significant changes in lectin reactivity compared to healthy controls. However, structural analyses revealed no significant differences in the Tf secondary or tertiary structures between the two groups. A functional analysis demonstrated comparable Tf-TfR interaction in both PD and healthy samples. Despite significant alterations in Tf glycosylation, structural integrity and Tf-TfR interaction remained preserved in PD patients. These findings suggest that while glycosylation changes may influence iron metabolism, they do not impair Tf function. The study highlights the importance of a glucose-free dialysis solutions in managing anemia exacerbation in PD patients with poorly controlled anemia, potentially offering a targeted therapeutic approach to improve patient outcomes.

AB  - The molecular structures of six neutral copper(II) complexes with propylenediamine bridges and different terminal groups have been reported and evaluated. Different antioxidant tests were performed on these complexes. Additionally, the antibacterial and antifungal activities of the investigated compounds were assessed. The study was complemented with data on their interaction with human serum albumin (HSA) and evaluated using spectroscopic fluorescence techniques. The copper(II) complexes were found to bind to HSA at multiple sites (n = 0.82–1.72), displaying relatively high binding constants on the order of Ka = (4.8–8.8) × 104 M−1. Furthermore, binding constants calculated from microscale thermophoresis (MST) data were within the range of 1.27 × 104–1.13 × 105 M−1; these results correlated well with the above Ka values obtained by fluorimetry. Molecular docking simulations were employed to study the ability of the complexes to bind to target macromolecules, such as HSA and DNA. As a significant addition to understanding their biological behavior, an MTT assay was performed to investigate the cytotoxicity of the complexes. The antiproliferative activity of the investigated copper(II) complexes with propylenediamine ligands, along with cisplatin as a reference compound, was evaluated in two human cancer cell lines (LS-174 and MCF-7) and one normal cell line (MRC-5). The obtained results are discussed, providing the structure–activity relationship of the copper(II) complexes with Schiff base tetradentate ligands.

AB  - We developed new iminosugar-based glycosidase inhibitors against SARS-CoV-2. Known drugs (miglustat, migalastat, miglitol, and swainsonine) were chosen as lead compounds to develop three classes of glycosidase inhibitors (α-glucosidase, α-galactosidase, and mannosidase). Molecular modelling of the lead compounds, synthesis of the compounds with the highest docking scores, enzyme inhibition tests, and in vitro antiviral assays afforded rationally designed inhibitors. Two highly active α-glucosidase inhibitors were discovered, where one of them is the most potent iminosugar-based anti-SARS-CoV-2 agent to date (EC90 = 1.94 µM in A549-ACE2 cells against Omicron BA.1 strain). However, galactosidase inhibitors did not exhibit antiviral activity, whereas mannosidase inhibitors were both active and cytotoxic. As our iminosugar-based drug candidates act by a host-directed mechanism, they should be more resilient to drug resistance. Moreover, this strategy could be extended to identify potential drug candidates for other viral infections.

Two highly active α-glucosidase inhibitors were discovered, where one of them is the most potent iminosugar-based anti-SARS-CoV-2 agent to date (EC90 = 1.94 µM in A549-ACE2 cells against Omicron BA.1 strain). However, galactosidase inhibitors did not exhibit antiviral activity, whereas mannosidase inhibitors were both active and cytotoxic. As our iminosugar-based drug candidates act by a host-directed mechanism, they should be more resilient to drug resistance. Moreover, this strategy could be extended to identify potential drug candidates for other viral infections.",

AB  - Hemiacetals of cyclopropanone can be isolated and stocked, contrary to their highly reactive parent ketone.  However, they are not readily converted to cyclopropanone, which limits their use as its synthetic equivalents.  2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy hemiacetals are expected to be better cyclopropanone surrogates, however, they have  never been prepared, so far. We show that oxyallyl cations with a heteroatom in the -position can be  intercepted with 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol, with formation of cyclopropanone trifluoroethoxy hemiacetals stable  enough to be isolated, purified and characterized. These species can serve as synthetic equivalents of  cyclopropanone under mild conditions.

AB  - Electrodeposition of copper from deep eutectic solvents (DES) based on a mixture of choline chloride and
ethylene glycol containing CuCl2⋅2H2O at 50 ◦C and 80 ◦C was studied. Electrochemical reduction/oxidation of
Cu(II)/Cu(0) on glassy carbon (GC) and palladium (Pd) electrodes was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV)
and square wave voltammetry (SWV) emphasizing that this process takes place through two steps, Cu(II) ↔ Cu(I)
and Cu(I) ↔ Cu(0). The CV results showed that in chloride-rich DES electrolytes, the increased presence of chloro
ligands raises the overpotential required for Cu electrodeposition. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy
(EIS) results indicate simultaneous electrodeposition of Cu and electrosorption of large cations on electrodeposited
Cu on both GC and Pd substrates. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results showed that Cu grains of
approximately 1 μm were obtained by electrodeposition of Cu on both Pd and GC, whereby better coverage by
electrodeposited Cu was obtained on Pd than on GC. Cu electrodeposited on Pd was relatively uniform and
smooth, but porous, while Cu electrodeposited on GC was dispersed in small agglomerates. Energy-dispersive Xray
spectroscopy (EDS) of Cu electrodeposited on Pd detected the dominant presence of Cu with the possibility of
the formation of CuPd alloy. The presence of CuPd alloy face-centred cubic structures is confirmed by X-ray
diffraction (XRD) along with metallic Cu.

AB  - he contamination of the water bodies by diesel oil (DO) and its water-soluble fraction (WSF) represents one of the most challenging tasks in the management of polluted water streams. This paper contains data related to the synthesis and characteristics of the plum stone biochar material (PmS-B), which was made from waste plum stones (PmS), along with its possible application in the sorption of the WSF of DO from contaminated water. Techniques applied in sample characterisation and comparisons were: Elemental Organic Analysis (EOA), Scanning Electron Microscopy−Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), pH (pHsus) and point of zero charge (pHpzc). In order to increase the overall efficiency of the removal process, sorption and bioremediation were subsequently combined. Firstly, PmS-B was used as a sorbent of WSF, and then the remaining solution was additionally treated with a specific consortium of microorganisms. After the first treatment phase, the initial concentration of diesel WSF was reduced by more than 90%, where most of the aromatic components of DO were removed by sorption. The sorption equilibrium results were best fitted by the Sips isotherm model, where the maximum sorption capacity was found to be 40.72 mg/g. The rest of the hydrocarbon components that remained in the solution were further subjected to the biodegradation process by a consortium of microorganisms. Microbial degradation lasted 19 days and reduced the total diesel WSF concentration to 0.46 mg/L. In order to confirm the non-toxicity of the water sample after this two-stage treatment, eco-toxicity tests based on a microbial biosensor (Aliivibrio fischeri) were applied, confirming the high efficiency of the proposed method.

AB  - The 3D printing parameters are known to have a significant impact on manufactured
parts, and the layered morphology of these parts makes mechanical design analysis for
engineering applications difficult. In this work, the tensile strengths and microhardness
of 3D printed polylactic acid (PLA) specimens with different orientations and numbers
of individual layers of mesh material (polyvinyl chloride – PVC) were investigated as a
laminate composite. Composite specimens were obtained using 3D printing via fused
deposition modelling (FDM). Moreover, the influence of printing parameters (i.e. infill
density and layer height) and the number and orientation of reinforced meshes on the
mechanical response was investigated. Fracture strength of PLA/PVC laminate
composites ranges from 31.30 MPa (3 PVC mesh layers; mesh height position:
25 % │ 50 % │ 75 %; infill density: 60 %; PVC mesh orientation: 90° │ 45° │ 90°; layer
height: 0.2 mm) to 18.62 MPa (without PVC mesh; infill density: 30 %; layer height: 0.1
mm) demonstrating a significant impact of the number of the PVC mesh layers, infill
density of PLA and layer height on the final mechanical parameters of printing
PLA/PVC elements. The surface hardness at the micro load level showed that the
number of reinforcement layers affects the microhardness value, as well as material
filling and mesh orientation. The specimen with the following parameters gave the
best results: layer height: 0.2 mm; 3 PVC mesh layers; infill density: 60 %; PVC mesh
orientation: 90° │ 45° │ 90°. The average hardness values for one layer and three layers
of mesh were in accordance with tensile test results.

This paper reports a decreased danger of spreading of epidemics caused by the JN.1 variant, since analyses indicate that (a) infectivity of the new variant is decreased compared to most earlier variants, which is confirmed by the number of cases (7500 daily in USA). Moreover, JN.1 despite the great number of mutations has not been able to achieve the values of Gibbs energy of biosynthesis (and thus virus multiplication rate) of the Hu-1 wild type.

AB  - Titanium (Ti) is widely used in medical and dental implants. Calcium phosphate (CPs) coatings enhance Ti implants’ osteoinductive properties, and additives further improve these coatings. Recently, a nano amorphous calcium phosphate (nACP) coating decorated with chitosan oligolactate (ChOL) and selenium (Se) showed immunomodulatory effects. This study investigates the surface morphology, composition, bioactivity, mechanical properties, and Se-release mechanism of the nACP@ChOL-Se hybrid coating on Ti substrates. Amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) was synthesized, and the nACP@ChOL-Se hybrid coating was deposited on Ti substrates using in situ anaphoretic deposition. Physico-chemical characterization was used to analyze the surface of the coating (scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy). The distribution of Se within the coating was examined with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Bioactivity was evaluated in simulated body fluid (SBF), and adhesion was tested using a scratch test method. In vitro testing determined the release mechanism of Se. SEM images illustrated the surface morphology, while AFM provided a detailed analysis of surface roughness. XRD analysis revealed structural and phase composition, and EDS confirmed Se distribution within the coating. The coating exhibited bioactivity in SBF and showed good adhesion according to the scratch test. In vitro testing uncovered the release mechanism of Se from the coating. This study successfully characterized the surface morphology, composition, bioactivity, and Se-release mechanism of the nACP@ChOL-Se hybrid coating on Ti substrates, offering insights for developing immunomodulatory coatings for medical and dental applications.

AB  - Data processing and data extraction are the first, and most often crucial, steps in metabolomics and multivariate data analysis in general. There are several software solutions for these purposes in GC-MS metabolomics. It becomes unclear which platform offers what kind of data and how that information influences the analysis’s conclusions. In this study, selected analytical platforms for GC-MS metabolomics profiling, SpectConnect and XCMS as well as MestReNova software, were used to process the results of the HS-SPME/GC-MS aroma analyses of several blackberry varieties. In addition, a detailed analysis of the identification of the individual components of the blackberry aroma club varieties was performed. In total, 72 components were detected in the XCMS platform, 119 in SpectConnect, and 87 and 167 in MestReNova, with automatic integral and manual correction, respectively, as well as 219 aroma components after manual analysis of GC-MS chromatograms. The obtained datasets were fed, for multivariate data analysis, to SIMCA software, and underwent the creation of PCA, OPLS, and OPLS-DA models. The results of the validation tests and VIP-pred. scores were analyzed in detail.

AB  - The plasma electrolytic oxidation process of Ti foil in the presence of a colloidal solution of Ag nanoparticles was used for the synthesis of exceptionally photocatalytically active Ag-doped TiO2 coatings. UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy was applied to follow the changes in the surface plasmon resonance band of the Ag nanoparticles as a function of the Ag:PO43− ratio in a phosphate-based electrolyte solution. Transmission electron microscopy revealed the size of the Ag nanoparticles in the range of 3–12 nm. The XRD patterns of the Ag-doped TiO2 coatings confirmed the crystalline anatase TiO2 phase regardless of the dopant concentration and without metallic Ag or crystalline Ag oxide forms. The typical porous morphology of the Ag–TiO2 coatings was observed by scanning electron microscopy. A significantly improved photocatalytic activity of the Ag–TiO2 coatings in the degradation process of the insecticide lindane (gamma isomer of benzene hexachloride) and test molecule methyl orange compared to pure TiO2 was determined using the GC technique. The degradation efficiency of Ag-doped TiO2 coatings is higher for lindane than for methyl orange.

AB  - This work includes a combined hydrometallurgical treatment of a eudialyte ore sample
with a subsequent preparation of leaching residue using mechanical separation methods. Hydrometallurgical treatment contains dry digestion with sulphuric acid at room temperature and filtration of the obtained product. The objectives of adopting these procedures are to test a new digestion reactor in order to prevent silica gel formation from the eudialyte ore. The obtained results revealed that silica gel formation is prevented during dissolution with sulphuric acid. A high leaching efficiency of light rare earth elements (La, Ce, Nd, Y) was reached using the dry digestion process with sulphuric acid, where the starting molarity was 12 mol/L. After the filtration process, magnetic separation is studied as the main method to recover weakly magnetic minerals like amphiboles and pyroxenes from the leaching residue in the magnetic fraction and feldspars in the nonmagnetic fraction. A new combined research strategy was developed for the production of different concentrates such as the one bearing Zr, Hf, and Nb.

AB  - Breaking news are usually disturbing. Natural disasters, wars, epidemics etc. are reported as breaking news. This paper reports a decreased danger of spreading of epidemics caused by the JN.1 variant, since analyses indicate that (a) infectivity of the new variant is decreased compared to most earlier variants, which is confirmed by the number of cases (7500 daily in USA). Moreover, JN.1 despite the great number of mutations has not been able to achieve the values of Gibbs energy of biosynthesis (and thus virus multiplication rate) of the Hu-1 wild type. The research shows that infectivity and pathogenicity of the JN.1 variant has not reached worrying size, which means that there is no reason to expect a worsening of the epidemiologic situation.

AB  - Sustainable development is a concept that is based on the development of the human society without compromising the natural resources, which should improve human lives and protect the environment for future generations. The UN Agenda 2030 has set 17 goals aimed to transform the development of humanity in accordance with the environment, and with the social and economic rights. This concept is recognized as one of the most important concepts for the future international development. One of the four main pillars of the Agenda 2030 is a pillar Planet, which consists of five sustainability development goals (SDGs) aiming to clean the pollution on the Earth and set the sustainable use of the Earth’s resources. The aim of paper is to demonstrate the role of oil pollution bioremediation in achieving SDGs by assessing the importance of this technology and using microorganisms as natural capacity of the Earth for self-cleaning. This review article highlights the applicability of bioremediation as an oil pollution cleaning technique and reviews the compliance of bioremediation with the SDGs. According to this review, bioremediation techniques are an important element which can help in integrated approach to achieve several goals set by the Agenda 2030. Due to the incomplete biodegradation and co-contamination by other chemicals, further research is needed in order to make bioremediation a more effective biotechnological strategy. It is necessary to integrate the Agenda 2030 to university curricula and stream SDGs into scientific funding by opening dedicated calls that contribute to selected SDGs of the Agenda 2030.

AB  - This study was carried out at the Danube River and its tributaries during the Joint Danube
Survey 4 (JDS4) expedition. Three freshwater benthic species were used to estimate the quantity
of microplastics (MPs): Corbicula spp., Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri (Claparede, 1862), and Polypedilum nubeculosum (Meigen, 1804). Following the kick and sweep technique, individuals were sampled using a hand net or dredge. In order to estimate the number of MP articles/individual particles/g wet body mass, the body mass and total length of all specimens were measured. Alkaline (Corbicula spp.and L. hoffmaisteri) and enzymatic (P. nubeculosum) protocols were performed for tissue degradation. All samples were filtered through glass microfiber filters (mesh size 0.5 μm). The particles were photographed, measured, and counted. A total of 1904, 169, and 204 MPs were isolated from Corbicula spp., L. hoffmaisteri, and P. nubeculosum, respectively. To confirm the chemical composition of isolated MPs, a subsample of 46 particles of the fragmented particles from 14 sampling sites was analysed via μ-ATR-FTIR spectroscopy analysis. The particles were characterised as polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polypropylene–polyethylene copolymer (PP-PE), nylon (polyamide-PA) and cellophane, with the domination of PET.

AB  - Metals and metal oxides have subpar antibacterial activities compared to those of small-molecule antibiotics, yet there are hopes that with proper compositional and structural adjustments this gap might be bridged. In this study, titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles were mechanically activated and combined with particulate silver through simple reduction process elicited by UV irradiation and assisted with the ultrasound. The resulting powders in various combinations (Ag vs. no Ag, activated vs. non-activated) were characterized using a range of experimental techniques and assessed for their antibacterial activities. The preparation procedure presented in this work prevails over the disadvantages of many chemical routes, most critically by avoiding the use of toxic substances. The mechanical activation did not reduce the particle size or crystallinity of TiO2 nor did it consistently alter the bandgap, yet it enabled the doubling of the amount of silver incorporable into the material. Further, while both mechanical activation and the addition of silver in the amount not exceeding 0.5 wt% produced barely detectable structural changes in the material, they both augmented its antibacterial activity. The precursor TiO2 powder produced no inhibition zone against any of the four bacterial species tested, while the mechanical activation of TiO2 led to the formation of distinct inhibition zones against each of the four bacterial species tested. The addition of silver to activated TiO2 further widened the inhibition zones and it also imparted the antibacterial activity to non-activated TiO2. The boost in the antibacterial activity achieved by the short mechanical activation was of a similar magnitude as the boost obtained after the addition of silver. The antibacterial activity was not different for different species when no silver was added to the system. However, with the addition of silver, species selectivity was obtained, as the composites were more effective against the two Gram-negative species (Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae) than against the two Gram-positive ones (Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis). The antibacterial activity increased with the addition of silver in the broth assay, but it was mediocre compared to that detected in the agar assay, attesting to the poor dispersability of the powders and their best performance when the bacterial cells migrate to the composite surface than vice versa. The findings of this study give hope that with appropriate microstructural or compositional alterations, the antibacterial activity of metal oxide powders and inorganic materials in general can be made comparable to that of small-molecule antibiotics.
