Abstract:
Control and treatment of infection are one of the big challenges in medicine. The development of different strategies for the reduction and elimination of infection is an active field in various medicine and pharmacology. A unique formulation of “Disinfectant and Antiseptic Nano- compound using Ferula assa-foetida (NANO HING GUARD)” attempts to increase the antiseptic power and reduce the adverse effects of chemical disinfectants and create stability using active ingredients including hydro-alcoholic extract of Ferula assa-foetida oleo-gum, zinc oxide nanoparticles which interact with each other, creating High-level antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-fungal properties.
The Ferula assa-foetida plant (Hing/Kuma), with its remarkable antimicrobial action against various bacteria, is a suitable agent for controlling bacterial, parasitic, fungal, and viral infections. Zinc oxide Nano-particles are non-toxic and biocompatible. Damage of DNA, cell membranes, and cellular proteins are considered various mechanisms for the antimicrobial activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles.
NANO HING GUARD is used to disinfect and remove biofilm from all surfaces, halls, means of transportation, equipment in the food industry, livestock, poultry, aquaculture (disinfection of surfaces, tools, feeders, drinkers, and other equipment), slaughterhouses, agriculture, and related industries, healthcare centers such as hospitals, clinics, etc., public places, and households. This combination can be supplied as a solution, aerosol spray, or other standard methods. The results of Nano scale-analysis such as XRD, DLS, and TEM indicate the Nano- composition of the NANO HING GUARD. The most important general advantages of this patent involve the use of native medicinal plants to replace disinfectant chemical compounds, the possibility of production on an industrial scale, non-resistant microorganisms, non-toxicity, environmental friendliness, strong effectiveness (Reduction 107 CFU of Microorganism), the non-destructive effect on buildings and equipment, its widespread use for disinfection in humans, livestock, poultry, and aquatic animals.
