A simple one-spot synthetic route for the production of Ag-nanoparticles using aqueous extract of citrus lemon is being reported in presence of shape-directing cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). To our knowledge, this is the first report where the biomolecules form a layer around a group of the Ag-nanoparticles in which the inner layer is bound to the AgNPs surface via the hydroxyl groups of citric acid. The appearance of a sharp surface plasmon resonance band in the UV–visible region might be due to the formation of spherical Ag-nanoparticles. Agglomeration number ( N Ag), the average number of silver atoms per nanoparticle ( N), molar concentrations of nanoparticle ( C) in solution, extinction coefficient ( ε) and increase in the Fermi energy (Δ E F) were calculated using Mie theory and discussed. Interestingly, reaction mixture became turbid at higher [CTAB] due to the uncontrolled growth of Ag-nanoparticles. The transmission electron microscopic images of nanoparticles, recorded at different magnifications. 相似文献

Elicitation effect of silver nano particles (AgNPs) and triggering of defence system by production of hydrogen peroxide (H 2O 2) as a signaling molecule in the regulation of the activity of stress-related enzymes and production of Taxol was evaluated in suspension- cultured hazel cells ( Corylus avellana L.). The cells were treated with different concentrations of AgNPs (0, 2.5, 5, and 10 ppm), in their logarithmic growth phase (d7) and were harvested after 1 week. Treatment of hazel cells with AgNPs decreased the viability of the cells. Also the results showed that while the activity of certain radical scavenging enzymes in particular of catalase and peroxidase increased by 2.5 and 5 ppm AgNPs, the activity of superoxide dismutase decreased in these treatments. The highest activity of ascorbate peroxidase was observed in 10 ppm AgNPs treatments. This treatment also showed the highest contents of H 2O 2 and phenolic compounds, as well as the highest activity of phenylalanine ammonialyase. According to the results, 5 ppm AgNPs was the best concentration for elicitation of hazel cells to produce efficient amounts of H 2O 2 in order for stimulation of antioxidant defence system, production of Taxol at the highest capacity of the cells, meanwhile reserving their viability. 相似文献

Silver nanoparticles have received attention as novel antimicrobial agents due to their high surface area to volume ratio and the unique chemical and physical properties. In order to study the effects of capping agents on silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), the nanoparticles were synthesized via chemical reduction method using different concentrations (0.3 mM, 0.6 mM and 0.9 mM) of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and Triton X-100 (TX). Also, AgNPs capped by the combinations of both PEG and TX were synthesized. These coated AgNPs were incorporated into collagen, lyophilized to form scaffolds and characterized by FTIR and FT-Raman spectroscopy. Results on mechanical property of all the scaffolds displayed no significant difference in the percentage elongation at break. However, the maximum percentage of 46.67% was observed with the combinations (0.9 mM PEG+0.9 mM TX). This implies that the combinations of surfactants increase the elasticity, which is useful for biomedical applications, e.g., Heart-valve preparations. 相似文献

Juniperus spp. are used as medicinal plants in many countries like Bosnia, Lebanon, and Turkey. In folk medicines, these plants have been used for treating skin and respiratory tract diseases, urinary problems, rheumatism and gall bladder stones. The objectives of this work were to synthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using a coniferous tree, Juniperus procera leaf extract and testing the synthesized AgNPs for its antimicrobial potentials, hemolytic activity, toxicity and the proliferative effects against normal and activated rat splenic cells. Leaf extract was prepared using acetone and ethanol as solvents. AgNPs were prepared using the acetone extract. AgNPs were validated using UV–Vis spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Functional groups in the extract were identified using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. SEM images of AgNPs showed spherical and cubic shapes with a uniform size distribution with an average size of 30–90 nm. FT-IR spectroscopy showed the presence of many functional groups in the plant extract. AgNPs showed promising antimicrobial activity against tested bacteria and fungus. AgNPs also expressed a stimulating activity towards the rat splenic cells in a dose dependent manner. Acetone as solvent was safer on cells than ethanol. Green synthesized AgNPs using J. procera might be used as a broad-spectrum therapeutic agent against microorganisms and as an immunostimulant agent. 相似文献

Antibacterial materials based on cellulose have been widely used in many fields. In this work, an environmentally benign and facile approach for production of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was proposed for the first time by hydrothermal synthesis using bacterial cellulose (BC) as both the reducing and stabilizing agent, without any chemical reagents introduced. Some key reaction parameters were optimized to achieve a high antibacterial activity of the BC/AgNPs composite. Under the optimal conditions, a small size and a narrow distribution of AgNPs, 17.1 ± 5.9 nm, was formed on the BC matrix, with a silver content of 1.78% (w/w) and a MIC value of 1.30 × 10 −4 μg/CFU. Moreover, a sustained release of silver and a prolonged antibacterial performance of the composite against Staphylococcus aureus were found over a long period time of 72 h, which were important for practical applications. 相似文献

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were biosynthesized using fungal extract of Trametes trogii, a white rot basidiomycete involved in wood decay worldwide, which produces several ligninolytic enzymes. According to previous studies using fungi, enzymes are involved in nanoparticles synthesis, through the so-called green synthesis process, acting as reducing and capping agents. Understanding which factors could modify nanoparticles’ shape, size and production efficiency is relevant. The results showed that under the protocol used in this work, this strain of Trametes trogii is able to synthesize silver nanoparticles with the addition of silver nitrate (AgNO 3) to the fungal extract obtained with an optimal incubation time of 72 h and pH 13, using NaOH to adjust pH. The progress of the reaction was monitored using UV–visible spectroscopy and synthesized AgNPs was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), through in-lens and QBDS detectors, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Additionally, SPR absorption was modeled using Mie theory and simple nanoparticles and core-shell configurations were studied, to understand the morphology and environment of the nanoparticles. This protocol represents a simple and cheap synthesis in the absence of toxic reagents and under an environmentally friendly condition. 相似文献

Mosquitoes serve as reservoirs for viruses and other microorganisms, posing a significant health-related issue for both humans as well as livestock. Control of these deadly disease-producing mosquito vectors is of paramount importance. The chemical analysis of Parmotrema reticulatum was examined by GC–MS. Further, lichen-mediated AgNPs were confirmed through UV–vis spectrophotometry, FTIR, TEM-EDX, and XRD. After 24 h post-treatment, the lichen-synthesized AgNPs showed considerable toxicity against distinct Aedes aegypti instars with LC 50 values of 44.61 (I instar), 51.27 (II instars), 61.34 (III instars), 72.95 (IV instar), and 89.84 (pupae) μg/mL, respectively. Further, both P. reticulatum extract and AgNPs greatly reduced the survival and reproductive efficiency of A. aegypti adults. Eventually, in conventional laboratory circumstances, the predatory effectiveness of Gambusia affinis against Ae. aegypti II and III instar larvae were 71.35% and 53.40%, respectively. In antibacterial assays, low concentrations of the P. reticulatum synthesized AgNPs inhibited the development of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Citrobacter freundii. Surface damage, ROS production, and protein leakage are the antibacterial mechanisms of AgNPs. Overall, the lichen-derived AgNPs can be regarded as newer and safer Ae. aegypti control instruments. 相似文献

An effective carrier matrix for diastase alpha amylase immobilization has been fabricated by gum acacia-gelatin dual templated polymerization of tetramethoxysilane. Silver nanoparticle (AgNp) doping to this hybrid could significantly enhance the shelf life of the impregnated enzyme while retaining its full bio-catalytic activity. The doped nanohybrid has been characterized as a thermally stable porous material which also showed multipeak photoluminescence under UV excitation. The immobilized diastase alpha amylase has been used to optimize the conditions for soluble starch hydrolysis in comparison to the free enzyme. The optimum pH for both immobilized and free enzyme hydrolysis was found to be same (pH=5), indicating that the immobilization made no major change in enzyme conformation. The immobilized enzyme showed good performance in wide temperature range (from 303 to 323 K), 323 K being the optimum value. The kinetic parameters for the immobilized, (K(m)=10.30 mg/mL, V(max)=4.36 μmol mL(-1)min(-1)) and free enzyme (K(m)=8.85 mg/mL, V(max)=2.81 μmol mL(-1)min(-1)) indicated that the immobilization improved the overall stability and catalytic property of the enzyme. The immobilized enzyme remained usable for repeated cycles and did not lose its activity even after 30 days storage at 40°C, while identically synthesized and stored silver undoped hybrid lost its ~31% activity in 48 h. Present study revealed the hybrids to be potentially useful for biomedical and optical applications. 相似文献

BackgroundBiogenic nanoparticles are gaining attention due to their low toxicity and numerous biomedical applications. Present study aimed to compare the potential anticancer activity of two biogenic silver nanoparticles (bAgNPs and pAgNPs) against human cervical cancer cell lines (HeLa). MethodsbAgNPs were synthesized using Acinetobacter sp. whereas pAgNPs were synthesized using aqueous root extract of Curcuma aromatica. Effect of these nanoparticles on HeLa cells viability was studied using MTT assay and colony formation assay. Anticancer potential was determined using fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry studies. Bio-compatibility studies were performed against peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). ResultsBoth the nanoparticles showed 50 % viability of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) when used at high concentration (200 μg/mL). IC 50 for bAgNPs and pAgNPs against HeLa cells were 17.4 and 14 μg/mL respectively. Colony formation ability of Hela cells was reduced on treatment with both nanoparticles. Acridine orange and ethidium bromide staining demonstrated that bAgNPs were cytostatic whereas pAgNPs were apoptotic. JC-1 dye staining revealed that the mitochondrial membrane potential was affected on treatment with pAgNPs while it remained unchanged on bAgNPs treatment. Flow cytometry confirmed cell cycle arrest in HeLa cells on treatment with nanoparticles further leading to apoptosis in case of pAgNPs. About 77 and 58 % HeLa cells were found in subG1 phase on treatment with bAgNPs and pAgNPs respectively. bAgNPs showed cytostatic effect on HeLa cells arresting the cell growth in subG1 phase, whereas, pAgNPs triggered death of HeLa cells through mitochondrial membrane potential impairment and apoptosis. ConclusionOverall, bAgNPs and pAgNPs could be safe and showed potential to be used as anticancer nano-antibiotics against human cervical cancer cells. 相似文献

A green, rapid, and cost-effective probe for the precise colorimetric detection of Mn(II) ions has been investigated. The AgNPs were prepared via heating method by utilizing the extract obtained from Bhilwa (Semecarpus anacardium Linn) nuts (B−AgNPs). The Mn(II) ions induce the aggregation of B−AgNPs, resulting in color changes from yellowish brown to dark red along with the red shift in the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) peak from 404 to 432 nm. The aggregation of B−AgNPs was further confirmed by FTIR, HRTEM, and DLS techniques. The developed probe displayed an excellent linear response towards Mn(II) ions in the linear range from 20 to 0.001 ppm. In comparison to the currently available methods for the detection of Mn(II), the proposed probe provides an enhanced detection limit, i.e., 0.001 ppm. The developed colorimetric probe can be successfully applied for the detection of Mn(II) ions in water samples (pond water), thus demonstrating its potential use in field applications. 相似文献

AbstractBiosynthesis of metal nanoparticles is an area of interest among researchers because of its eco-friendly approach. Current study focuses at biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and optimization of physico-chemical conditions to obtain mono-dispersed and stable AgNPs having antimicrobial activity. Initially Bacillus mojavensis BTCB15 produced silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) of 105?nm. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were characterized by particle size analyzer, UV-Vis Spectroscopy, Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Atomic force microscopy (AFM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Whereas, under optimal conditions of temperature 55?°C, pH 8, addition of surfactant Tween 20, and metal ion K 2SO 4, about 104% size reduction was achieved with average size of 2.3nm. Molecular characterization revealed 98% sequence homology with Bacillus mojavensis. AgNPs exhibited antibacterial activity at concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 2.5?µg/µl against Escherichia coli BTCB03, Klebsiella pneumonia BTCB04, Acinetobacter sp. BTCB05, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa BTCB01 but none against Staphylococcus aureus BTCB02. Highest antibacterial activity was observed at 0.27?µg/µl and lowest at 0.05?µg/µl of AgNPs indicated by zone of inhibition. Conclusively, under optimum conditions, Bacillus mojavensis BTCB15 was able to produce AgNPs of 2.3?nm size and had antibacterial activity against multi drug resistant pathogens. 相似文献

Italian ryegrass is one of main feed for livestock animals/birds. It has potential antioxidant metabolites that can improve their health and protect them against various infectious diseases. In this work, we studied synthesis of silver nanoparticles assisted by forage crop Lolium multiflorum as a green synthesis way. Potential antibacterial efficacy of these synthesized nanosized silver nanoparticles against poultry pathogenic bacteria was then studied. Aqueous extract of IRG was used as reducing agent for bio-reduction of silver salt to convert Ag + to Ag 0 metallic nano-silver. Size, shape, metallic composition, functional group, and crystalline nature of these synthesized silver nanoparticles were then characterized using UV–Vis spectrophotometer, FESEM, EDX, FT-IT, and XRD, respectively. In addition, antibacterial effects of these synthesized AgNPs against poultry pathogenic bacteria were evaluated by agar well diffusion method. UV–Vis spectra showed strong absorption peak of 440–450 nm with differ reaction time ranging from 30 min to 24 h. FESEM measurements revealed particles sizes of around 20–100 nm, majority of which were spherical in shape while a few were irregular. These biosynthesized silver nanoparticles using IRG extract exhibited strong antibacterial activities against poultry pathogenic microorganisms, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi, Escherichia coli, and Bacillus subtilis. Overall results confirmed that IRG plant extract possessed potential bioactive compounds for converting silver ions into nanosized silver at room temperature without needing any external chemical for redox reaction. In addition, such synthesized AgNPs showed strong antibacterial activities against pathogenic bacteria responsible for infectious diseases in poultry. 相似文献
