Abstract

Introduction: Overuse and improper dosage of antibiotics have generated antimicrobial resistance (AMR) worldwide. Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA), a well-known bacterial strain can establish MDR leading to a variety of infections in humans. Furthermore, these PA strains hold the ability to form biofilms by generating extracellular polymeric substances on the surface of medical tools and critical care units. To supersede the infectious effect of MDR organisms, silver nanoparticles have been known to be the choice.

Materials and Methods: Hence, the present study concentrates on the engineering of varying concentrations of gelatin-based polymeric hydrogel embedded with silver nanoparticles (G-AgNPs) for controlled bactericidal activity against MDR PA biofilms. Biofilms formation by MDR PA was confirmed microscopically and spectroscopy was taken as a tool to characterize and analyze the efficacy at every stage of experiments.

Results: When MDR PA biofilms were treated with G-AgNPs prepared with 5 % gelatin concentration (AgNP3), they exhibited superior bactericidal activity. Furthermore, a dose-dependent study showed that 800 nM of AgNP3 could inhibit the growth of MDR PA.

Conclusion: Hence it can be concluded that silver nanoparticles synthesized in the presence of 5% gelatin can act as a bactericidal agent in the inactivation of MDR PA biofilms, thereby controlling the infections caused by these biofilms.

Keywords: Multidrug resistant, gelatin, silver nanoparticles, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, biofilm, sewage treatment.
