The biofilm-forming pathogens with acquired antibiotic resistance and associated disease outbreaks are increasing worldwide, especially in the seafood industry. This study hypothesised that the bioengineered iron nanoparticles using the myrobalan (Terminalia chebula) extract (M-FeNPs) and its resin coating have an effective antibiofilm properties. 12 seafood waste-based biofilm-forming strains (SSS) were isolated from SS-316 metal coupon and screened for their antibiotic-resistant profile as per CLSI (2016) standards. M-FeNPs were characterised by UV, FTIR, etc. Over 50 % of SSS were resistant to Ciprofloxacin, Cefalexin and Penicillin-G. The antibiofilm activity of the M-FeNPs showed an excellent inhibition zone (16–24 mm), and the combination of M-FeNPs + Methicillin also showed better activity. in vitro antibiofilm study shows that upon adding M-FeNPs, biofilm formation was reduced from 1.425 g to 0.83 g at the end of the eighth day. The CLSM and SEM images indicated that the M-FeNPs are effective antibiofilm agents against biofilm strains. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
