Gold nanoparticles with tiny sizes and biostability are particularly essential and are employed in a variety of biomedical applications. Using a reducing agent and a stabilising agent to make gold nanoparticles has been reported in a number of studies. Gold nanoparticles with a particle size of 25.31 nm were synthesized in this study utilising Hylocereus polyrhizus (Red Pitaya) extract, which functions as a reducing and stabilising agent. The extract of Red Pitaya is said to be a powerful antioxidant and anti-cancer agent. Because of its substantial blood biocompatibility and physiological stability, green production of gold nanoparticles with H. polyrhizus fruit extract is an alternative to chemical synthesis and useful for biological and medical applications. The formation and size distribution of gold nanoparticles were confirmed by HPLC, UV-Vis spectrophotometer, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Dynamic light scattering (DLS), Zeta potential, Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The well-analysed NPs were used in various biological assays, including anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory, anti-Alzheimer, and antioxidant (DPPH), and cytotoxic investigations. The NPs also showed a dose-dependent cytotoxic activity against HCT-116, HepG2 and MCF-7 cell lines, with IC50 of 100 µg/mL for HCT-116 cells, 155 µg/mL for HepG2, and for MCF-7 cells the value was 165 µg/mL respectively. Finally, the outstanding biocompatibility of Au-NPs has led to the conclusion that they are a promising choice for various biological applications.  相似文献

The size and morphology determines the thermodynamic, physical and electronic properties of metal nanoparticles. The extracellular synthesis of gold nanoparticles by fungus, Cylindrocladium floridanum, which acts as a source of reducing and stabilizing agent has been described. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using techniques such as UV–Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). Based on the evidence of HR-TEM, the synthesized particles were found to be spherical with an average size of 19.05 nm. Powder XRD pattern proved the formation of (111)-oriented face-centered cubic crystals of metallic gold. This microbial approach by fungus for the green synthesis of spherical gold nanoparticles has many advantages such as economic viability, scaling up and environment friendliness.  相似文献

Biologically inspired synthesis of nanoparticles was found to be more attractive in metal nanoparticle synthesis. The present study reported an in-situ biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Solanum trilobatum aqueous leaf extract. On this basis, the aqueous leaf extract of S. trilobatum acted as a reducing agent and stabilizing agent to synthesize highly stable AgNPs at ambient temperature. Eventually, the synthesized and stabilized AgNPs surface plasmon resonance was near 430 nm through a UV–visible (UV–vis) spectrophotometer. Here, the stability of the silver colloids monitored through zeta potential and mean particle size was evaluated through diffraction light scattering (DLF). Further, the average particle size was found to be 27.6 nm and spherical, confirmed with transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Also, colloidal AgNPs and aqueous extract are found to be rich sources of antioxidants and exhibit higher free radical scavenging ability. Thus, efficient inhibition with COX1 and COX2 enzymes and the protective effect with human red blood cell (HRBC) membrane stability showed significant results. These features are promising, suggesting the possibility of the AgNPs to be useful to disease-modifying for treating inflammatory disorders and associated complications.  相似文献

Silver nanoparticles are the most desirable nanoparticles broadly used in diverse fields. This study intends to investigate the anticancer properties of synthesized silver/Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG nanoparticles (Ag-LNPs) as a reducing and stabilizing agent in the synthesis process. To prepare silver/Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG nanoparticles, 1 mg/ml cell lysate of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and 1 mM silver nitrate solution were mixed and incubated for 72 h. XRD, FTIR, and TEM methods were used for nanoparticle characterization. MTT assay and annexin/PI staining were employed to analyze the toxicity and apoptotic cells levels of Ag-LNPs, respectively. TEM showed that these nanoparticles are spherical shaped about 233 nm in size. FTIR spectroscopy demonstrated that Ag-LNPs were functionalized with biomolecules. XRD pattern showed high purity and face-centered crystal structure of Ag-LNPs. MTT assay revealed that the percentages of HT-29 live cells significantly reduced in the high concentration of Ag-LNPs. Annexin/PI staining showed that these nanoparticles could lead HT-29 cells to apoptosis. This study showed the new Ag-LNP-synthesizing method using Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG as a cost-effective and efficient approach. Also, it showed that these nanoparticles can be considered as a potential active agent for biomedical applications and drug delivery due to their anticancer activities.

The synthesis of metal nanoparticles by green methods attained enormous attention in recent years due to its easiness, non-toxicity, and eco-friendly nature. In the present study, noble metal nanoparticles such as silver and gold were prepared using an aqueous leaf extract of a medicinal plant, Bauhinia purpurea. The leaf extract performed as both reducing and stabilizing agents for the development of nanoparticles. The formations of silver and gold nanoparticles were confirmed by observing the surface plasmon resonance peaks at 430 nm and 560 nm, respectively, in UV–Vis absorption spectrum. Various properties of nanoparticles were demonstrated using the characterization techniques such as FTIR, XRD, TEM, and EDX. The synthesized silver and gold nanoparticles had a momentous anticancer effect against lung carcinoma cell line A549 in a dose-dependent manner with IC50 values of 27.97 µg/mL and 36.39 µg/mL, respectively. The antimicrobial studies of synthesized nanoparticles were carried out by agar well diffusion method against six microbial strains. Silver and gold nanoparticles were also showed high antioxidant potentials with IC50 values of 42.37 µg/mL and 27.21 µg/mL, respectively; it was measured using DPPH assay. Additionally, the nanoparticles were observed to be good catalysts for the reduction of organic dyes.

Nanomaterials in different form have been thoroughly used in the area of pharmaceutics and medicine for drug delivery. The large scale of nanoparticles (NPs) synthesis from plant extract is much safe, cheap and eco-friendly. Here, we demonstrated a new, one-step, ultra-fast biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles (sc-AuNPs, 19.54?nm) by using aqueous Spathodea campanulata leaf extracts as a reducing and capping agent. And also, we presented the synthesis of citrate capped gold nanoparticles (cit-AuNPs) of approximately same size (19.66?nm). These two NPs were characterized by UV-Visible, dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscope and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed that the functional groups like OH, NH, OH of COOH and CO were contributed in the sc-AuNPs formation. The negative zeta potential (?20.5, ?22.8?mV) established the stability and dispersion of the sc- and cit-AuNPs. The anti-bacterial activity of the sc- and cit-AuNPs were checked against Escherichia coli (DH5-Alpha). Minimum inhibitory concentration was 2.4 and 3.0?nM, respectively for sc- and cit-AuNPs. The interaction study of the sc-AuNPs/cit-AuNPs-human serum albumin (HSA) system was done by UV-Visible absorbance, fluorescence, circular dichroism, time resolved fluorescence spectroscopy and the measurement of zeta potential. Absorbance, three dimensional fluorescence, synchronous fluorescence and circular dichroism spectroscopy showed a minor conformational change of HSA upon interaction with the sc-AuNPs compared to cit-AuNPs. The present comparative study will advance our knowledge about the binding mode, mechanism and conformational change of the protein upon interaction with green synthesized sc-AuNPs and cit-AuNPs.

Biofabrication of nanoparticles via the principles of green nanotechnology is a key issue addressed in nanobiotechnology research. There is a growing need for development of a synthesis method for producing biocompatible stable nanoparticles in order to avoid adverse effects in medical applications. We report the use of simple and rapid biosynthesis method for the preparation of gold nanoparticles using Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid, a soil-borne pathogen. The effect of pH and temperature on the synthesis of gold nanoparticles by M. phaseolina was also assessed. Different techniques like UV-Visible Spectroscopy, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and EDX were used to characterize the gold nanoparticles. The movement of these gold nanoparticles inside Escherichia coli (ATCC11103) along with effect on growth and viability was evaluated. The biogenic gold nanoparticle was synthesized at 37 °C temperature and neutral pH. UV-Visible Spectroscopy, TEM, EDX, and DLS measurements confirm the formation of 14 to 16 nm biogenic gold nanoparticles. FTIR substantiates the presence of protein capping on Macrophomina phaseolina-mediated gold nanoparticles. The non-toxicity of gold nanoparticles was confirmed by the growth and viability assay while the TEM images validated the entry of gold nanoparticles without disrupting the structural integrity of E. coli. Biogenic method for the synthesis of nanoparticles using fungi is novel, efficient, without toxic chemicals. These biogenic gold nanoparticles themselves are nontoxic to the microbial cells and offer a better substitute for drug delivery system.

Leaf extracts of two plants, Magnolia kobus and Diopyros kaki, were used for ecofriendly extracellular synthesis of metallic gold nanoparticles. Stable gold nanoparticles were formed by treating an aqueous HAuCl4 solution using the plant leaf extracts as reducing agents. UV–visible spectroscopy was used for quantification of gold nanoparticle synthesis. Only a few minutes were required for >90% conversion to gold nanoparticles at a reaction temperature of 95 °C, suggesting reaction rates higher or comparable to those of nanoparticle synthesis by chemical methods. The synthesized gold nanoparticles were characterized with inductively coupled plasma spectrometry (ICP), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and particle analysis using a particle analyzer. SEM and TEM images showed that a mixture of plate (triangles, pentagons, and hexagons) and spherical structures (size, 5–300 nm) were formed at lower temperatures and leaf broth concentrations, while smaller spherical shapes were obtained at higher temperatures and leaf broth concentrations.  相似文献

The synthesis and post-synthesis separation of nanoparticles that are polydispersed in size and shape is important due to their variety of applications. In the present study, it is demonstrated that the Magnolia kobus plant extract produces a diverse mixture of extracellular gold and silver nanocrystals with a majority of polydispersed spheres; however, there are a significant number of homogeneously sized triangles, pentagons, and hexagons. The gold and silver nanoparticles synthesized using the M. kobus plant extract can be separated using density gradient centrifugation in the size range of 52 ~ 117 nm and 38 ~ 61 nm, respectively. The average particle sizes increase with increases in the sucrose concentration of each layer. Relatively larger but long, thin plates of gold nanoparticles appear in the higher density sediments, whereas a larger proportion of smaller spheres featured in the lower density gradients. Similarly, silver nanospheres of different sizes are separated at different density gradients with smaller proportions of plates.  相似文献

Phytofabricated green synthesis of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles using different plant extracts of Azadirachta indica, Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, Murraya koenigii, Moringa oleifera, and Tamarindus indica for biological applications has been reported. ZnO nanoparticles were also synthesized by chemical method to compare the efficiency of the green synthesized nanoparticles. FT-IR spectra confirmed the functional groups involved in the green synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles and the powder XRD patterns of the ZnO nanoparticles revealed pure wurtzite structure with preferred orientation at (100) reflection plane. SEM and TEM analysis revealed the spherical shape of the synthesized ZnO nanoparticles with the particle size between 54 and 27 nm. The antioxidant activity was evaluated by five different free radical scavenging assays. The present study also intends to screen α-amylase and α-glucosidase activity of ZnO nanoparticles synthesized using natural sources, which may minimize the toxicity and side effects of the inhibitors used to control diabetes. The ZnO nanoparticles synthesized using T. indica extract displayed remarkable antioxidant and antidiabetic activities.

This work reports the preparation of water-soluble leucine capped gold nanoparticles by two single-step synthesis methods. The first procedure involves a citrate reduction approach where the citrate is used as reducing agent and leucine as capping/stabilizing agent. Different sizes of gold nanoparticles, citrate reduced and stabilized by leucine, Leu-AuNPs-C, with the mean diameters in the range of 21–56 nm, were obtained by varying the macroscopic parameters such as: concentration of the gold precursor solution, Au (III):citrate molar ratio and leucine pH. In the second procedure, leucine acts both as reducing and stabilizing agent, allowing us to obtain spherical gold nanoparticles, Leu-AuNPs, with a majority of 80 % (with the mean diameter of 63 nm). This proves that leucine is an appropriate reductant for the formation of water-soluble and stable gold nanoparticles colloids. The characterization of the leucine coated gold nanoparticles was carried out by TEM, UV–Vis and FT-IR analysis. The cytotoxic effect of Leu-AuNPs-C and Leu-AuNPs was also evaluated.  相似文献

Despite the vast research being conducted on the development of biosynthetic procedures, the process is limited owing to the unavailability of modes to control the size and shape of the biosynthesized nanoparticles. In this study, we investigate the size and shape control of gold nanoparticles synthesized by leaf extract of Piper betle (PBE). The effects of various counter ions, temperatures, pH and reaction times on the morphology of gold nanoparticles are also scrutinized. Results from this study indicate that the presence of iodine during biosynthesis leads to the formation of spherical gold nanoparticles and induces the presence of bromine-emanating, truncated nanoplatelets. Spherical nanoparticles are formed with increasing incubation temperature. pH 3 was found to be the optimum for nanoparticles synthesis. The presence of phosphates, sulphates and nitrates increases the productivity of nanoparticles. ICP analysis revealed complete reduction of AuCl4 ions within 48 h of the reaction. The use of plant extract for rapid synthesis represents a novel and environmentally friendly approach for the fabrication of gold nanoparticles and nanoplatelets, as an alternative to chemical methods.  相似文献

We here in report the synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using a Crinum macowanii bulb water extract. The as‐synthesized AuNPs were characterized using ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and a zeta potential‐sizer. The results showed that the as‐synthesized AuNPs were crystalline and mostly spherical in shape with a small mixture of triangular, tetrahedral, hexagonal, octagonal, and diamond shapes. The as‐synthesized AuNPs together with those synthesized by conventional methods were subsequently used as enhancers for the luminol signal in blood detection. It was noted that the AuNPs synthesized from the Crinum macowanii bulb water extract could enhance the chemiluminescence signal for blood detection by luminol to the same extent as AuNPs prepared by conventional methods. Furthermore, both types of AuNPs served as fluorescence enhancers for blood detection when luminol was replaced with the bulb water extract.  相似文献

In the present study, we synthesized silver and gold nanoparticles with a particle size of 10–20 nm, using Zingiber officinale root extract as a reducing and capping agent. Chloroauric acid (HAuCl4) and silver nitrate (AgNO3) were mixed with Z. officinale root extract for the production of silver (AgNPs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The surface plasmon absorbance spectra of AgNPs and AuNPs were observed at 436–531 nm, respectively. Optimum nanoparticle production was achieved at pH 8 and 9, 1 mM metal ion, a reaction temperature 50 °C and reaction time of 150–180 min for AgNPs and AuNPs, respectively. An energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM–EDS) study provides proof for the purity of AgNPs and AuNPs. Transmission electron microscopy images show the diameter of well-dispersed AgNPs (10–20 nm) and AuNPs (5–20 nm). The nanocrystalline phase of Ag and Au with FCC crystal structures have been confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis shows the respective peaks for the potential biomolecules in the ginger rhizome extract, which are responsible for the reduction in metal ions and synthesized AgNPs and AuNPs. In addition, the synthesized AgNPs showed a moderate antibacterial activity against bacterial food pathogens.  相似文献

Zingiber zerumbet Smith or wild ginger is remarkable for its inherent resistance to Pythium spp., which cause soft rot disease in Zingiber officinale Rosc. In the present study, various concentrations of extract prepared from Z. zerumbet were screened for its activity against Pythium myriotylum. Microscopic observation of P. myriotylum in presence of Z. zerumbet extract has confirmed the complete lysis of pathogen within 10 h. However, the same treatment with Z. officinale extract was found to have partial antifungal effect even after 24 h due to inability of its metabolites to prevent the growth of P. myriotylum. Due to the antifungal activity, extract from Z. zerumbet was subjected to GC–MS and LC-QTOF-MS which has identified Zerumbone with m/z 219 as the major compound. Further, in vivo study and the subsequent microscopic analysis have confirmed the applicability of extract from Z. zerumbet as a phytomedicine to control rhizome rot in ginger.  相似文献

The present study explores the reducing and capping potentials of ethanolic flower extract of the plant Nyctanthes arbortristis for the synthesis of gold nanoparticles. The extract at different volume fractions were stirred with HAuCl4 aqueous solution at 80 °C for 30 min. The UV–Vis spectroscopic analysis of the reaction products confirmed successful reduction of Au3+ ions to gold nanoparticles. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) revealed dominant spherical morphology of the gold nanoparticles with an average diameter of 19.8 ± 5.0 nm. X-ray diffraction (XRD) study confirmed crystalline nature of the synthesized particles. Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis of the purified and lyophilized gold nanoparticles confirmed the surface adsorption of biomolecules during preparation and caused long-term (6 months) stability. Low reaction temperature (25 °C) favored anisotropy. The strong reducing power of the flower extract can also be tested in the green synthesis of other metallic nanoparticles.  相似文献

Nanomaterials have assumed a great deal of importance as they often display unique and considerably modified physical, chemical and biological properties as compared to their counterparts of the macroscale. In this study, biogenic synthesis of silver and gold nanoparticles by Geobacillus stearothermophilus has been attempted. The exposure of G. stearothermophilus cell free extract to the metal salts leads to the formation of stable silver and gold nanoparticles in the solution. These nanoparticles were characterized by UV–Vis spectra, FTIR, TEM, and XRD. The silver and gold nanoparticles have absorption maxima at 423 nm and 522 nm respectively. The TEM micrograph revealed the formation of polydispersed particles in the case of silver nanoparticles and monodispersed particles with respect to the gold nanoparticles. High stability of the nanoparticle solution could be attributed to the secretion of certain capping proteins by the bacterium in the reaction mixture. The involvement of these proteins was confirmed by FTIR and SDS PAGE.  相似文献

The leaf extract of Diopyros kaki was used as a reducing agent in the ecofriendly extracellular synthesis of platinum nanoparticles from an aqueous H2PtCl6·6H2O solution. A greater than 90% conversion of platinum ions to nanoparticles was achieved with a reaction temperature of 95°C and a leaf broth concentration of >10%. A variety of methods was used to characterize the platinum nanoparticles synthesized: inductively coupled plasma spectrometry, transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The average particle size ranged from 2 to 12 nm depending on the reaction temperature and concentrations of the leaf broth and PtCl6 2−. FTIR analysis suggests that platinum nanoparticle synthesis using Diopyros kaki is not an enzyme-mediated process. This is the first report of platinum nanoparticle synthesis using a plant extract.  相似文献

This study describes the eco‐friendly, low‐cost and room‐temperature synthesis of gold nanoparticles from Musa balbisiana leaf extract, which acts as both reducing and stabilizing agent, and characterized by ultraviolet?visible (UV–vis) light spectroscopy, fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE‐SEM), analytical transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDAX) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) instruments. These nanoparticles showed an average diameter of 33.83 ± 3.39 nm, which was confirmed from the size distribution histogram. The bactericidal activity of these nanoparticles was confirmed using bacteria Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus at 1 and 2 nM minimum inhibitory concentrations, respectively. The interaction between nanoparticles and human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated, as this plays significant roles in biological systems. The nature of interaction, binding parameters and structural variation of HSA in the presence of these nanoparticles have been evaluated using several useful spectroscopic approaches such as UV–vis, FTIR, time‐resolved and steady‐state fluorescence, and circular dichroism in addition to the measurement of zeta potential. This interaction study revealed that static quenching occurs in this process with minimal alteration in the secondary structure, but the native structure of HSA remained unaltered. The binding constant and thermodynamic parameters of this interaction process were also evaluated.  相似文献
