Özet
Acanthamoeba is a common protozoan in many environments, leading to infection in humans and animals. Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK) and granulomatous amoebic encephalitis (GAE) are caused by Acanthamoeba. AK is an infection in the eye that can lead to vision loss and does not have a fully effective treatment. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new therapies against Acanthamoeba for the treatment of AK and GAE. Green nanotechnology synthesis approaches have been recently reported to be more environmentally friendly and effective in antimicrobial, antiviral, antifungal, and antiprotozoal activities. Therefore, they might be a good strategy for developing anti-Acanthamoeba substances. This study aimed to use the microwave-assisted method to prepare AgNPs, CuNPs, and NiNPs using the crude extract of Allium tuncelianum (AT). Moreover, the synthesized AT-AgNPs, AT-CuNPs, and AT …
