“…After the preservation period, the samples were taken for soaking operation and after finishing the soaking process the spent liquor were collected to analyze different water quality parameters like TDS, chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chloride (Cl À ), total suspended solids (TSS) following the analytical methods. 28…”

“…26 The Salicornia brachiata plants could preserve the hide/skin for a shorter period due to their antibacterial activity. 27 Tamil Selvi et al 28 reported that Citrus limon leaf paste could be used as a curing agent; it has an antioxidant and antibacterial property. Hashem et al 29 observed that goatskin preservation with Moringa oleifera leaf pest is more environment friendly compared to the conventional salt preservation process.…”

Wet salting preservation is commonly practiced to preserve raw hide/skin which discharges high salinity wastewater during soaking operation of hide/skin processing.The saline wastewater significantly pollutes the environment. In this study, a novel plant-based approach has been made to preserve the goatskin to reduce pollution in tannery wastewater. The Ficus hispida plant leaf paste with a minimal amount of common salt was applied on the flesh side of raw goatskin. Efficacy of the method was evaluated by scrutinizing thermal stability, hair slip, odor, moistness percentage, Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen, and bacterial count in comparison with the conventional wet salting preservation method for 28 days. Pollution load in the wastewater, for example, total dissolved solids (TDS), total suspended solids (TSS), chloride (Cl À ), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), and chemical oxygen demand (COD) was measured following the APHA method. Results indicate that the novel plant-based method has decreased the pollution load of Cl À , TDS, TSS, BOD, and COD in the tannery wastewater by 51.02%, 41.6%, 37.1%, 2.9%, and 14.6%, respectively. Leather produced from the experimentally preserved goatskin illustrates similar physical properties in comparison to the leather produced from conventionally preserved goatskin. The proposed preservation technique of goatskin in combination with lower salt might be an ecological alternative that could decrease the pollution load especially in soaking operation.

“…In addition, some short-and medium-chain fatty acids like capric acid and butanoic acid have also displayed antibacterial and cell envelope destructive activities against MDR E. coli and H. pylori, respectively (Anacarso et al 2018;Yonezawa et al 2012). Similarly, hexanedioic acid, hexadecanoic acid and heptadecanoic acid have been reported as potent antimicrobial and antifungal agents (Choi and Jiang 2014;Moon and Cha 2020;Selvi et al 2020). In future studies, it will be interesting to evaluate the bioactivities of individual compounds found in VPE for their use in antibiotic combination therapy.…”

Vanilla, a popular flavour extracted from Vanilla planifolia pods was tested for its antibiotic modulatory activity against extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolates. Cured vanilla pod extract (VPE) was found nonbactericidal even at high doses (> 2000 µg/mL), however, it modulated the activity of several antibiotics at a sub-inhibitory concentration of 500 µg/mL. This modulation activity of VPE was observed for last line antibiotic options such as meropenem and tigecycline, as well as commonly used antibiotics like ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin and chloramphenicol. Further, it was observed that VPE inhibited the activity of efflux pumps in XDR P. aeruginosa clinical isolates. GC-MS spectral analysis revealed the dominance of vanillin, furfuran and some short-chain fatty acids in VPE. Therefore, further studies on the constituent ingredients in VPE are recommended to identify the active compounds and use them as antibiotic modulators and efflux pump inhibitors.
