A Lecturer from the Department of Biology Publishes a Scientific Article on the Inhibitory Effect of Cinnamon Nan-ocomposite on Pseudomonasaeruginosa Bacteria

Scientific Article

The lecturer in the College of Education for Pure Sciences / Department of biology, Asst. Prof. Dr. (Qaisar Abd al-Sajjad Muhammad), obtained acceptance to publish a tagged scientific article entitled (The Inhibitory Effect of Cinnamon Nanocompound on Pseudomonasaeruginosa) by the Scientific Articles Committee at the Presidency of the University of Karbala after the article had completed all Publication terms. (Prof.  Dr. Caesar Abdel-Sajjad Muhammad) stated that nanotechnology is the scientific application of engineering nanoproducts to produce things by rearranging their atoms to manufacture molecules with specific new specifications, and it is planned that their arrangement in a certain way gives that molecule physical and chemical characteristics New, and that these characteristics depend entirely on the arrangement taken by the atoms to form that part, and the term nano (Nano) goes back to the Greek word (Nanos) which means “dwarf”, and nanoparticles (NPs) structures with a diameter of less than 100 nanometers and this The dimensions gave it distinctive characteristics depending on its morphological shape, size, and chemical composition. The nanoparticles were manufactured using physical, chemical, and biological methods, but the physical and chemical methods are costly and have negative environmental and health effects, in addition to the fact that they require the availability of special conditions of high pressure, thermal energy, and chemicals. To the biological method, which is easier because it is inexpensive and safe and has no health or environmental impact. The manufacture of nanomaterials develops by exploiting the activity of some microbes and plants. Biological methods are Environmentally friendly approaches as these methods eliminate the use of expensive chemicals, consume less energy, and produce environmentally friendly products and products. Methods based on plants and plant extracts are more beneficial than those that use cells and microorganisms. Converting metal ions into nanoparticles using extracts plant was already known in 1900 A.D. Enzymes and other biomolecules (such as DNA and actin filaments) are usually used as growth catalysts for NPs, while organisms (such as fungi, bacteria, cells) act as active units to produce NPs. The best feature is the ability of biosynthesis to improving the NPs’ biological properties, bioavailability, bioactivity, and biocompatibility and reducing its toxicity. However, the main drawback is that the resulting NPs may lack stability compared to those obtained using physical and chemical methods.
