Metal oxides, especially copper oxide (CuO), have been employed in synthesizing nanoparticles due to their efficient reducing properties. The purpose of this work was to examine the physicochemical, antioxidant, antibacterial, anticancer, and wound healing abilities of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuONPs) synthesized using Plumeria rubra leaf extract. FTIR, XRD, FESEM, EDX, AFM, and UV-vis spectroscopy were used to confirm the formation of CuONPs, and the results showed that they were spherical in shape and 35 nm in size. DPPH and nitric oxide antioxidant assays revealed that they possess effective free radical scavenging ability. CuONPs showed bactericidal activity against human pathogenic bacteria. The anticancer effect of CuONPs was assessed on the Neuro-2a (N2a) neuroblastoma cells. Both P. rubra leaf extract and CuONPs exhibited dose-dependent cytotoxicity with morphological distortions and apoptosis, along with a loss of membrane integrity. In vivo analysis of CuONPs for their wound healing ability in Wistar albino rats showed a better wound closure percentage compared to that of the control animals. Based on our findings, CuONPs may be applied as a potential therapeutic agent in developing treatments for a spectrum of various diseases.</p>","PeriodicalId":9024,"journal":{"name":"Bioprocess and Biosystems Engineering","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144109287","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Biochemical property characterization, apparent kinetic parameter determination, and thermal stability assessment were conducted using a methodology developed based on the hydrolysis of the ester methyl butyrate. The results demonstrated that immobilization expanded the enzyme's optimal pH range, with the best performance observed at pH 7.5 and 8, reaching approximately 730 U g⁻¹. Additionally, increasing the temperature to 55°C led to an enhancement in the biocatalyst's hydrolytic activity, achieving a maximum of 916.24 U g⁻¹. Kinetic parameter analysis yielded values of 321.38 ± 6.31 mM for Km and 4322.46± 75.73 U g⁻¹ for Vmax. Thermal stability tests were conducted at 55°C, revealing that 83% of the biocatalyst's initial activity was retained after 24 h of exposure. Furthermore, the biocatalyst's performance in the synthesis of emollient esters (butyl oleate, 2-ethylhexyl oleate, and octyl oleate) via solvent-free esterification was evaluated. The synthesis of emollient esters demonstrated conversions exceeding 55% for octyl oleate and 2-ethylhexyl oleate at 50 and 55°C, whereas the maximum conversion for butyl oleate was 42% at 55°C. Among the bioprocesses evaluated, the synthesis of octyl oleate was selected for kinetic modeling using the ping-pong bi-bi mechanism, with five different parameter arrangements constructed. The model with the lowest corrected Akaike information criterion (AIC_C = 129.649) was selected. The findings obtained in this work open new avenues for biotechnological applications, reinforcing the relevance of the biocatalyst as a promising tool for industrial processes and scientific research.

In this study, waste biomass, including pineapple peel and Sapindus mukorossi Gaertn., was combined with BC fermentation wastewater using synergistic fermentation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Lactobacillus sp., and Acetobacter sp. to extract triterpene saponins and proteases. This process was used to prepare green detergents enriched with surface-active substances. The results showed that after 10 days of fermentation, the saponin extraction efficiency reached 84.29%, significantly outperforming traditional methods such as ultrasound-assisted alcoholic extraction (16.17%), ultrasound-water immersion (19.00%), double extraction (31.72%), and cellulase-assisted extraction (38.98%). Protease activity reached 36.92 ± 0.20 U/mg. The fermentation broth reduced surface tension by 36.95 mN/m compared to pure water, which improved emulsification and dispersion. It exhibited high surface activity and foam stability with a low critical micelle concentration (CMC) of 0.163 ± 0.01 mg/mL. Green detergents showed a 20.71-45.87% higher efficiency than synthetic detergents in removing carbon black oil (90.38%), sebum (100%), and protein stains (89%).
