Abstrakt: Candida albicans is one of the most dangerous pathogenic fungi in the world, according to the classification of the World Health Organization, due to the continued development of its resistance to currently available anticandidal agents. To overcome this problem, the current work provided a simple, one-step, cost-effective, and safe technique for the biosynthesis of new functionalized anticandidal selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs) against C. albicans ATCC10231 using the cell-free supernatant of Limosilactobacillus fermentum (OR553490) strain. The bacterial strain was isolated from yogurt samples available in supermarkets, in Damietta, Egypt. The mixing ratio of 1:9 v/v% between cell-free bacterial metabolites and sodium selenite (5 mM) for 72 h at 37 °C were the optimum conditions for Se NPs biosynthesis. Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Zeta analyses, and elemental analysis system (EDS) were used to evaluate the optimized Se NPs. The Se NPs absorption peak appeared at 254 nm. Physicochemical analysis of Se NPs revealed the crystalline-shaped and well-dispersed formation of NPs with an average particle size of 17-30 nm. Se NPs have - 11.8 mV, as seen by the zeta potential graph. FT-IR spectrum displayed bands of symmetric and asymmetric amines at 3279.36 cm -1 and 2928.38 cm -1 , aromatic and aliphatic (C-N) at 1393.32 cm -1 and 1237.11.37 cm -1 confirming the presence of proteins as stabilizing and capping agents. Se NPs acted as a superior inhibitor of C. albicans with an inhibition zone of 26 ± 0.03 mm and MIC value of 15 µg/mL compared to one of the traditional anticandidal agent, miconazole, which revealed 18 ± 0.14 mm and 75 µg/mL. The cytotoxicity test shows that Se NPs have a low toxic effect on the normal keratinocyte (IC 50 ≈ 41.5 μg/mL). The results indicate that this green synthesis of Se NPs may have a promising potential to provide a new strategy for drug therapy.
