Abstract
Nanobacteria (NB) is a type of bacteria its size 200-300 nm. Recent evidence suggests a role of nanobacteria in a number of human diseases, especially renal stone formation (calcium oxalate and carbonate), arteriosclerosis, carotid artery calcification, chronic prostatitis, arthritis and gall bladder stones. It has become clear that the
pathophysiology of renal stone disease cannot be explained by crystallization processes alone. We searched for nanobacteria from 8 aseptically kidney stones. Scanning electron microscope (SEM and TEM) images showed spherical units in the carbonate apatite kidney stones were clearly similar in size and morphology also chemical analysis of the stone by EDX. NB isolates were cultured in liquid media, solid media, tissue culture cells and detection of NB by TEM, staining by Hoechst stain and re-isolation of NB from infected kidney mice. Finally we evaluate the effect of 12 antibacterial and 25 types of plant extracts and oils on NB isolates.
