Moxifloxacin-Loaded Lipidic Nanoparticles for Antimicrobial Efficacy

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2021
Background:Pulmonary infections are an increasing problem in individuals and current therapies are lacking. Liposomes are spherical lipidic vesicles composed of phospholipid and cholesterol. Liposomes have numerous advantages, such as biodegradability, biocompatibility, non-immunogenicity, lack of toxicity, controlled release properties and high ...

Antimicrobial Particles from Cationic Lipid and Polyelectrolytes

Langmuir, 2010
Hybrid nanoparticles from cationic lipid and polymers were prepared and characterized regarding physical properties and antimicrobial activity. Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride (PDDA) were sequentially added to cationic bilayer fragments (BF) prepared from ultrasonic dispersion in water of the synthetic and cationic

Antimicrobial lipids in nano-carriers for antibacterial delivery

Journal of Drug Targeting, 2019
Antimicrobial lipids have been recognised as broad-spectrum antibacterial agents. They can directly act on and lyse bacterial cell membrane, and inhibit bacterial growth through a range of mechanisms. Antimicrobial lipids include free fatty acids, monoglycerides, cholesteryl ester, sphingolipids and etc., with the first two being the most extensively ...

Lipid-Based Nanopharmaceuticals in Antimicrobial Therapy

2017
Nanotechnology and its direct application in medicine offer a platform for advanced therapeutic strategies against infections. The small size of nanosystems (nanocarriers) distinguishes their features from other delivery systems since nanocarriers may penetrate biological membranes, improve drug bioavailability, assure cellular internalization and ...

Antimicrobial Lipids from the Hemolymph of Brachyuran Crabs

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2009
The potential of marine crabs as a source of biologically active products is largely unexplored. In the present study, antimicrobial activity of the hemolymph (plasma) and hemocytes (plasma cells) of six brachyuran crabs was investigated against 16 pathogenic strains.
