Sumario:Abstract In the present study lipopeptide biosurfactant with high emulsification capacity produced by human skin bacterium Paenibacillus thiaminolyticus was purified and subjected to FTIR and NMR spectral analysis which gave evidence of the active characteristics of the surfactant. To augment the antivirulent potential further, the mixer of copper and copper oxide nanoparticles (CuNPs) was synthesized, and characterized by UV–Visible spectroscopy, SEM-EDAX, TEM, and Zeta analysis. Here, we attempted to enhance the antimicrobial and antibiofilm activity with the assistance of encapsulated preparation of lipopeptide and CuNPs in multilamellar liposomes. The proposed mechanism of action of lipopeptide and CuNPs liposomal preparation negatively influences the cell metabolism, secreted virulence such as staphyloxanthin, pyocyanin, and extracellular polysaccharides. The significant decline in the growth of MRSA and P. aeruginosa in both planktonic form and biofilm by lipopeptide and CuNPs treatment were visualized using scanning electron microscopy and High content screening imaging system. In vivo studies revealed that treatment with lipopeptide and CuNPs in multilamellar liposomes extended the lifespan of infected Caenorhabditis elegans by about 75%. Therefore, this study typifies lipopeptide and CuNPs could credibly be a substantial substitute over conventional antibiotics in averting the biofilm associated pathogenesis of MRSA and P. aeruginosa.
