The assessment of antimicrobial and antibiofilm activities, molecular docking studies, and the photodegradation of methylene blue by green-fabricated ZnO nanoparticles using the plant extract of Helichrysum noeanum boiss
In recent years, natural reducing agents have been studied worldwide to reduce harmful effects of toxic chemicals utilized in nanoparticle production. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) have been prepared for their photocatalytic potential in treating industrial dyes, for example methylene blue (MB). Therefore, the present study reports synthesizing and assessing antimicrobial effectiveness of ZnO NPs biosynthesized with an endemic plant Helichrysum noeanum Boiss (H. noeanum). Optical, morphological, and surface area features of synthesized ZnO NPs were evaluated utilizing UV–visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), and determined the chemical composition and purity ZnO NPs as well as DLS and zeta potential analysis. The interactions between phytoconstituents in aqueous extract of H. noeanum and ZnO NPs were identified from FT-IR spectra. Dye degradation efficiency of ZnO NPs (5 mg/mL) was found as 81 % against MB under sunlight. Additionally, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values for, S. aureus ATCC 29213, E. coli ATCC 43895, B. cereus NRRL B-3711, P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853, and S. typhi were 75, 50, 50, 100, 50 μg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, ZnO NPs at a concentration of 100 μg/mL reduced 94 % of the biofilm formed by P. aeruginosa. Also, molecular docking was performed to evaluate the binding interactions between ZnO NPs and protein targets involved in microbial pathogenesis and biofilm activity, including PaAP, elastase, and pqsA. Therefore, this study offers a straightforward and effective method for synthesizing ZnO NPs mediated with H. noeanum with potent antimicrobial activity and for wastewater treatment by degrading various toxic dyes.
