Their unique properties ensure stability over extended periods under adverse conditions, which enhances their risk as food and water contaminants. In recent years, intensive research has focused on the natural antimicrobial potential of plant metabolites as disinfectants against environmental pathogens. The oregano essential oil (OEO) has gained attention due to its valuable properties, including antimicrobial, antioxidant, antiviral, and antifungal activities. However, the susceptibility of OEO to degradation and oxidation under environmental or storage conditions, coupled with its low water solubility, has limited its practical applications. Nanoencapsulation has emerged as a promising strategy to overcome these limitations by prolonging shelf life, improving stability, enabling controlled release, and expanding its potential uses. In this study, we evaluated the virucidal potential of chitosan-based polymeric nanoparticles incorporating <i>Origanum vulgare</i> essential oil against murine norovirus 1 (MNV-1) for food and environmental applications. To assess the virucidal effect of the OEO nanoparticles, the reduction in viral infectivity was determined by comparing the TCID<sub>50</sub>/mL values of untreated viral suspensions with those treated with the tested compounds at varying concentrations. The results demonstrated effective viral inactivation at all tested concentrations, with the undiluted formulation (40 mg/mL incorporated OEO) achieving the highest inactivation rate (99.72%). The blank formulation showed no significant virucidal activity, while the pure OEO exhibited cytotoxicity at most tested concentrations. These findings support the development of a biotechnological disinfectant with potential applications in both environmental and controlled conditions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":563,"journal":{"name":"Food and Environmental Virology","volume":"17 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144923086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we used shotgun metagenomics to analyze the virome of hydrocarbon-contaminated and uncontaminated soils from King George Island, Antarctica. Viral sequences were obtained from metagenomes of all soils; however, the relative abundance of viruses was higher in hydrocarbon-contaminated soils compared to uncontaminated soils. Our results indicate that viral distribution correlates with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in King George Island soil (<i>p</i> = 0.05). Taxonomic analysis of viral contigs revealed viruses from realms Duplodnaviria, Varidnaviria, Monodnaviria, and Riboviria. While Caudoviricetes (realm Duplodnaviria) represented more than 90% of the relative abundance of viruses found in hydrocarbon-contaminated soils, this class represented less than 62% of the viruses of uncontaminated soils. Most viral hosts detected in King George Island soils belonged to hydrocarbon-degrading bacterial genera from the phyla Pseudomonadota and Actinomycetota. Hydrocarbon contamination resulted in the enrichment of well-characterized viruses at the expense of previously uncharacterized viral taxa, which were predominantly detected in non-contaminated soils. Among them, <i>Gordonia</i>-related <i>Stormageddonvirus</i> was the most abundant viral entity identified in King George Island soil. Viral auxiliary metabolic genes (AMGs) associated with nitrogen and phosphate cycles were found in different Caudoviricetes-related contigs. Our results further indicate that Caudoviricetes abundance is correlated with the carbon: phosphate (C:P) ratio in King George Island soils. We propose the Caudoviricetes may actively contribute to microbial competition for phosphorus in hydrocarbon-contaminated soils.

In this study, 970 biosamples were collected from air, poultry, water, and other environmental specimens of LPMs in Changsha from 2021 to 2023, and environmental prevalence survey of AIV and biomolecular analysis of H9N2 subtype were then conducted. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was employed to detect the AIV and its subtypes (H5/H7/H9), revealing the positive rates of 68.45% for AIV and 53.51% for H9 subtype across all samples. Notably, aerosol samples had the positive rates of 89.00% for AIV and 72.50% for H9 subtype. Correlation analysis further revealed a negative correlation between the operation of exhaust facilities and the positive rates of AIV and H9 subtype. Subsequently, 30 AIV strains were isolated via chicken embryo inoculation, 12 of which were sequenced and identified to be H9N2 isolates. Genetic evolution analysis further indicated that these isolates were assigned into the G57 genotype. Furthermore, homology modeling revealed that mutations of V<sup>223</sup>A and N<sup>224</sup>H were identified at the receptor binding site of HA protein in several novel AIV isolates, which may lead to the variation in spatial conformation. Overall, the findings investigate the prevalence of AIV in LPMs and biomolecular attributes of H9N2 subtype, and provide some theoretical reference for future health risk assessment and preventive strategies of AIV.</p>","PeriodicalId":563,"journal":{"name":"Food and Environmental Virology","volume":"17 3","pages":"38"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144566927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
