    Cyanobacteria-mediated heavy metal and xenobiotic bioremediation
    (Springer Nature, 2023-06-24T00:00:00) Lalrokimi, X.; Mehetre, Gajanan; Zothanpuia, X.; Singh, Bhim Pratap; Yadav, Mukesh Kumar; Lalnunmawii, Esther
    Overpopulation and industrialization are the leading cause of environmental pollution. However, environmental pollutants such as xenobiotics and heavy metals are of more concern because of their toxicity; in addition, the degradation of both compounds is impossible and persists in the environment for a longer time. Photoautotrophic microorganism such as cyanobacteria is considered to be the potential organism in the process of bioremediation because of its ability to photosynthetically break down toxic heavy metals and xenobiotic compounds into less toxic forms. It is also known to be conventional, eco-friendly, and cost-effective. This chapter highlighted the capability of different genera of cyanobacteria in the biodegradation of heavy metals and xenobiotics. � The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2023.

    Role of nanoparticles in the treatment of human disease: a comprehensive review
    (Elsevier, 2022-12-09T00:00:00) Zomuansangi, Ruth; Singh, Bhim Pratap; Singh, Garima; Zothanpuia; Singh, Prashant Kumar; Song, Jae Jun; Kharat, Arun S.; Deka, Purbhajyoti; Yadav, Mukesh Kumar
    Nanoparticles (NPs) are nanosize particles which can be employed to treat human diseases and enhance the potential of existing drugs. The NPs can overcome biological barriers and enhance the drug delivery to the target site and thus increase efficiency of the drug. NPs are classified into various types, including polymeric, inorganic, and lipid-based NPs. In addition different types of NPs are used in medical fields, such as chitosan, alginate, cellulose, and liposome-based. The NPs have offered many advantages in disease diagnostic and therapeutic with the safe delivery of the various drugs into the tissue. In the past few years, the usage of nanotechnology in medicine has led to the improvement of vaccine efficiency, immunity strategies, and targeted delivery to attain a positive immune response at the cellular level and to advance vaccine efficiency. The NP carriers should defend the antigens from premature proteolytic degradation, ease antigen uptake and processing by antigen-presenting cells, control release, and be harmless for human consumption. This review chapter presents a summary of the current research and future trends in the use of NPs in the treatment of diseases with an emphasis on drug delivery. � 2023 Elsevier Inc.
