The present work is emphasised on the bio‐fabrication of silver and gold nanoparticles in a single step by a microwave‐assisted method using the leaf extract of Synedrella nodiflora as both reducing and stabilising agent. The synthesised nanoparticles are highly stable and show surface plasmon resonance peak at 413 and 535 nm, respectively, for silver and gold nanoparticles in UV–Vis spectrum. The functional group responsible for the reduction of metal ions were obtained from Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The crystalline nature of nanoparticles with face‐centred cubic geometry was confirmed by the X‐ray diffraction and selected area electron diffraction patterns. The morphology and sizes of the silver and gold nanoparticles were obtained from transmission electron microscopy images. The nanoparticles exhibit effective antimicrobial activities against various pathogenic strains. These antimicrobial properties were analysed by employing agar well diffusion method. The nanoparticles show significant antioxidant properties, and it was determined using 2, 2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl assay. The nanoparticles also show potent catalytic activity in the degradation of anthropogenic pollutant dyes Congo red and eosin Y by excess NaBH4. Thus, the current study demonstrates the potential use of S. nodiflora as a reducing and stabilising agent for the synthesis of silver and gold nanoparticles and their relevance in the field of biomedicine and catalysis.Inspec keywords: transmission electron microscopy, visible spectra, surface plasmon resonance, nanofabrication, ultraviolet spectra, field emission electron microscopy, reduction (chemical), nanocomposites, microorganisms, nanoparticles, dyes, silver, X‐ray diffraction, nanomedicine, gold, antibacterial activity, electron diffraction, infrared spectra, particle size, Fourier transform spectra, scanning electron microscopy, catalysis, crystal growth from solutionOther keywords: synthesised nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles, catalytic activities, electron diffraction patterns, antimicrobial activities, antioxidant activities, transmission electron microscopy images, X‐ray diffraction, 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl assay, Synedrella nodiflora, UV–Vis spectrum, silver nanoparticles, biofabrication, surface plasmon resonance, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, face‐centred cubic geometry, area electron diffraction patterns, pathogenic strains, agar well diffusion method, anthropogenic pollutant dyes, Congo red, eosin Y, wavelength 413.0 nm, wavelength 535.0 nm, Au, Ag 相似文献

In the present study, the potential of aqueous leaf extract of Nigella arevensis for biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was evaluated. The formation of AgNPs was confirmed by color changes and UV–visible spectroscopy, which showed absorbance maxima peak at 416?nm. The transmission electron microscope (TEM) image showed the AgNPs to be anisotropic and mostly spherical with sizes in the range of 5–100?nm. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis indicated that the flavonoids, alkaloids and phenolic groups present in leaf extract were involved in the reduction and capping of phytogenic AgNPs. These nanoparticles showed the cytotoxic effects against H1229 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines with an IC50 value of 10?μg/mL. AgNPs showed insignificant antioxidant properties compared to the crude extract, and it was effective against clinical isolated bacterial strains. Furthermore, the bioderived AgNPs displayed significant catalytic activity against methylene blue. These results confirmed the advantages and applications of these phytogenic AgNPs using the green method in various fields. 相似文献

The present study reports an environmentally friendly and rapid method for synthesis of silver nanoparticles. Although several articles have been reported for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles from plant extract, here we have developed a green synthetic method for silver nanoparticles using Ficus benghalensis leaf extract which acts as a reducing and capping agent. It was observed that use of Ficus benghalensis leaf extract makes a fast and convenient method for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles and can reduce silver ions into silver nanoparticles within 5 min of reaction time without using any harsh conditions. Silver nanoparticles so prepared were characterized by using UV-visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope-energy dispersive spectra (TEM-EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Further, these nanoparticles show effective antibacterial activity toward E.coli MTCC1302 due to high surface to volume ratio. 相似文献

Monodisperse silver (Ag) nanoparticles were synthesized by using Parthenium hystrophorus L leaf extract in aqueous media. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by using UV-vis spectrophotometer, X-ray diffracto-meter (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and dynamics light scattering (DLS). Size-dependent antibacterial activities of Ag nanoparticles were tested against Gram negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Gram positive Staphylococcus aureus. Ag nanoparticles having 20?±?2?nm size in diameter show maximum zone of inhibition (23?±?2.2?mm) in comparison to 40?nm and 70?nm diameter nanoparticles for Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The zone of inhibition against Staphylococcus aureus were 19?±?1.8?mm, 15?±?1.5?mm and 11?±?1?mm for 20?nm, 40?nm, and 70?nm, respectively. In addition, affect of concentration of 20?nm size Ag nanoparticles on Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus species were also reported and results were compared with 10?µg/ml dose of Gentamicin sulphate. The Parthenium hystrophorus L leaf extract capped 20?±?2?nm Ag nanoparticles (7.5?µg/ml) shows statistically significant antibacterial activity than Gentamicin sulphate (10?µg/ml) against Staphylococcus aureus. 相似文献

In the present study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with a flower-like structure were synthesized through an easy, rapid and eco-friendly pathway using Phyllanthus amarus leaf extract. The obtained AgNPs were characterized using ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In addition, the antimicrobial and catalytic activities of the bio-synthesized AgNPs were carried out. Our results indicated that the concentration of the Ag precursor and the volume of the leaf extract played key roles in the formation of the flower-shaped AgNPs. Morphology study confirms the shape of the obtained bio-AgNPs as flower like structure. This study also showed the presence of clear capping layers surrounding and apparently interacting with the nanoparticles. Moreover, our studies indicated this interaction to involve bio-organic capping agents in the leaf extract. UV–Vis absorption spectra confirmed the formation of AgNPs with an optimized size. The zeta (ζ) potential of the AgNPs attests the stability of the nanoparticles. FTIR spectra provided evidence for the presence of biomolecules responsible for the reduction as well as capping of the AgNPs. Finally, the bio-synthesized AgNPs were shown to be an excellent microbial activity against the selected pathogens and enhanced catalyst of the reduction of rhodamine B. 相似文献

In this study, we demonstrate a green approach for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using aqueous leaf extract of Rosmarinus officinalis under ambient conditions. The uniqueness of this method lies in its rapid synthesis within 15 min. The synthesized AgNPs were characterized using UV–vis, FTIR, XRD, FE-SEM coupled with EDX, TEM and AFM. The synthesized particles were found to be 14.20–42.42 nm with face centered cubic geometry. The functional group of flavonoids and terpenoids was largely identified by FTIR which was found to be responsible for the synthesis and stabilization of the AgNPs. Further, antibacterial efficacy of the biologically synthesized AgNPs was investigated by the standard method against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. The results showed that the aqueous leaf extract mediated synthesized AgNPs is an excellent antibacterial agent against clinical pathogens. 相似文献

A modified green approach for the synthesis of stable silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using tea leaf extract is described. The method involves the reduction of silver salt by the polyphenols present in the green tea leaf extract and requires no additional capping/stabilising agents. Compared to other biogenic methods for the synthesis of AgNPs, the uniqueness of the approach described here lies in its simplicity, low-cost, and rapid synthesis rate; the reaction being completed within 10–15 min at room temperature. The reaction was carried out in alkaline medium without stirring and heating, and requires no special cleaning or drying of the glassware used. The synthesised AgNPs were characterised by UV–Vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that AgNPs with a strong surface plasmon resonance peak around 410 nm and particle size in the 5–30 nm range were prepared. The synthesised AgNPs show excellent chemical stability for more than six months in aqueous solution. Additionally, we showed that the as-synthesised AgNPs can be used as highly selective colorimetric and optical sensors for the detection of cysteine. Thus, with a simple synthesis strategy, and enhanced stability, these green-tea-functionalised AgNPs have the potential for further applications as biosensors and antimicrobial agents. 相似文献

Bio‐ synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was made by using the aqueous leaf extract of Ardisia solanacea. Rapid formation of AgNPs was observed from silver nitrate upon treatment with the aqueous extract of A. solanacea leaf. The formation and stability of the AgNPs in the colloidal solution were monitored by UV–visible spectrophotometer. The mean particle diameter of AgNPs was calculated from the DLS with an average size ∼4 nm and ∼65 nm. ATR‐FTIR spectroscopy confirmed the presence of alcohols, aldehydes, flavonoids, phenols and nitro compounds in the leaf which act as the stabilizing agent. Antimicrobial activity of the synthesized AgNPs was performed using agar well diffusion and broth dilution method against the Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria. Further, robust anti‐oxidative potential was evaluated by DPPH assay. The highest antimicrobial activity of synthesized AgNPs was found against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (28.2 ± 0.52 mm) whereas moderate activity was found against Bacillus subtilis (16.1 ± 0.76), Candida kruseii (13.0 ± 1.0), and Trichophyton mentagrophytes (12.6 ± 1.52). Moreover, the potential wound healing activity was observed against the BJ‐5Ta normal fibroblast cell line.

Synthesis of nanoparticles by using natural products as reducing and stabilizing agents have been widely used in various fields especially medicine, primarily because of its lower cost, simplicity, and less toxic byproducts. In the present work, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were rapidly synthesized from silver nitrate in a green one-step synthesis by the aqueous extracts of Osage orange (Maclura pomifera) leaf as a reducing and stabilizing agent simultaneously. The effects of pH, extract quantity, and silver salt concentration were investigated to determine the optimum conditions of green synthesis of Ag NPs. The synthesized Ag NPs were characterized by different techniques including UV–Visible (UV–Vis) absorption spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform Infrared (FT-IR) Spectroscopy, and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). The Ag NPs showed surface plasmon resonance centered at 415?nm. The XRD pattern and TEM analysis revealed spherical, stable, and uniform Ag NPs with the average particle size of about 12?nm. The FT-IR spectroscopy showed that mainly hydroxyl functional groups, as both the reducing and stabilizing agent are responsible for silver nanoparticles synthesis. The antimicrobial activity of the synthesized Ag NPs showed a significant microbicidal effect on all clinical isolates especially, Gram-negative bacteria and fungi. These results suggest that such stable and uniform Ag NPs can be synthesized rapidly and simply for clinical as well as pharmaceutical applications. 相似文献

A one‐pot bottom‐up synthesis method was used to synthesise multi‐level leaf‐like nano‐silver (silver leaf) by simply mixing AgNO3, L‐ascorbic acid, Sodium sodium citrate, and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in the ethanol‐water mixed solvents. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) characterisations show that the silver leaves have tertiary structures and their sizes are controllable. In addition, silver leaves exhibit excellent Raman enhancement effect (SERS) and chemical catalytic activities for phenolic molecules. Interestingly, the SERS and catalytic activities increase as the size of the silver leaves decrease within a certain range, but when the size is too small, both of these performances weaken. The nanometre size and interstitial structure have a common amplification effect and influence on these activities. The present work not only showed a new method for the synthesis of silver leaves but also could be generalised to find other metallic leaves that could be used as promising heterogeneous catalysts for various reactions. The production of such small‐sized silver leaves will facilitate the analysis of phenolic pollutants through Raman enhancement and treat these pollutants through catalytic degradation. 相似文献

The Development of biologically inspired experimental processes for the synthesis of nanoparticles is evolving into an important branch of nanotechnology. The work presented here with the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles using Moringa oleifera leaf extract as reducing and stabilizing agent and its application in nonlinear optics. The aqueous silver ions when exposed to Moringa oleifera leaf extract are reduced resulting in silver nanoparticles demonstrating the biosynthesis. The silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Visible, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FT-IR) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. TEM analysis shows a dispersion of the nanoparticles in a range of 5-80 nm with the average around 46 nm and are crystallized in face centred cubic symmetry. To show that these biosynthesized silver nanoparticles possess very good nonlinear properties similar to those nanoparticles synthesized by chemical route, we carried out the Z-scan studies with a 6 ns, 532 nm pulsed laser. We estimated the nonlinear absorption coefficient and compare it with the literature values of the nanoparticles synthesized through chemical route. The silver nanoparticles suspended in solution exhibited reverse saturable absorption with optical limiting threshold of 100 mJ/cm2. 相似文献

This study describes a novel biological route for the biosynthesis of silver oxide nanoparticles utilising the aqueous extract of Callistemon lanceolatus D.C. leaves. Formation of silver oxide nanoparticles was confirmed by UV–visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope–energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy analysis. The biologically synthesised silver oxide nanoparticles were found to be 3–30 nm in size with spherical and hexagonal shape by high-resolution transmission electron microscope analysis. Furthermore, the biogenic silver oxide nanoparticles demonstrated significant (p?0.05) dose-dependent antioxidant activity in various in vitro antioxidant methods. These particles also exhibited significant (p?0.05) dose-dependent and time-dependent cytotoxic activity towards brine shrimp nauplii. Moreover, the reported method is a simple, cost-effective and eco-friendly approach for the synthesis of silver oxide nanoparticles with useful pharmacological properties. 相似文献

To eliminate the elaborate processes employed in other non‐biological‐based protocols and low cost production of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), this study reports biogenic synthesis of AgNPs using silver salt precursor with aqueous extract of Aspergillus fumigates MA. Influence of silver precursor concentrations, concentration ratio of fungal extract and silver nitrate, contact time, reaction temperature and pH are evaluated to find their effects on AgNPs synthesis. Ultraviolet–visible spectra gave surface plasmon resonance at 420 nm for AgNPs. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X‐ray diffraction techniques further confirmed the synthesis and crystalline nature of AgNPs, respectively. Transmission electron microscopy observed spherical shapes of synthesised AgNPs within the range of 3–20 nm. The AgNPs showed potent antimicrobial efficacy against various bacterial strains. Thus, the results of the current study indicate that optimisation process plays a pivotal role in the AgNPs synthesis and biogenic synthesised AgNPs might be used against bacterial pathogens; however, it necessitates clinical studies to find out their potential as antibacterial agents.Inspec keywords: nanoparticles, microorganisms, cellular biophysics, silver, antibacterial activity, pH, surface plasmon resonance, ultraviolet spectra, visible spectra, X‐ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectra, optimisation, nanomedicine, nanofabricationOther keywords: biogenic synthesis, optimisation, antibacterial efficacy, extracellular silver nanoparticles, fungal isolate Aspergillus fumigatus MA, nonbiological‐based protocols, silver salt precursor, fungal extract, silver nitrate, pH, ultraviolet‐visible spectra, surface plasmon resonance, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, crystalline nature, transmission electron microscopy, spherical shapes, potent antimicrobial efficacy, bacterial strains, optimisation process, bacterial pathogens, antibacterial agents, wavelength 420 nm, size 3 nm to 20 nm, Ag 相似文献

In the present study, a phyto‐mediated synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using an isoflavone, Dalspinosin (5,7‐dihydroxy‐6,3′,4′‐trimethoxy isoflavone) isolated from the alcoholic extract of roots of Dalbergia coromandeliana is reported. It is observed that Dalspinosin itself acts both as a reducing and a capping agent in the synthesis of the nanoparticles (NPs). An ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) spectral study showed a surface plasmon resonance band at 526 nm confirming the formation of AuNPs. The NPs formed were characterised by UV–Vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform‐infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction (XRD), high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR‐TEM) with energy‐dispersive x‐ray spectroscopy (EDX) and dynamic light scattering. HR‐TEM analysis showed the synthesised AuNPs were spherical in shape with a size of 7.5 nm. The AuNPs were found to be stable for seven months when tested by in vitro methods showed good antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory activities. They also showed moderate anti‐microbial activities when tested against Gram positive (Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus sp), Gram negative bacterial strains (Klebsiella pneumonia and Klebsiella terrigena) and fungal strain (Candida glabrata).

Uniform silver nanoparticles and silver/polystyrene core-shell nanoparticles were successfully synthesized in a room temperature ionic liquid, 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([BMIM]·BF4). [BMIM]·BF4 plays a protective role to prevent the nanoparticles from aggregation during the preparation process. Transmission electron micrographs confirm that both silver nanoparticles and core-shell nanoparticles are regular spheres with the sizes in the range of 5–15 nm and 15–25 nm, respectively. The X-ray diffraction analysis reveals the face-centered cubic geometry of silver nanoparticles. The as-prepared nanoparticles were also characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. In addition, antimicrobial activities against E. coli and S. aureus were studied and the results show that both silver nanoparticles and core-shell nanoparticles possess excellent antimicrobial activities. The antimicrobial mechanism of the as-prepared nanoparticles was discussed. 相似文献

The biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNps) has a wide range of applications, and here we develop a rapid synthesis using the leaf extract of Ipomea carnea. We demonstrated that 100?mL of a 1?mM silver nitrate solution was reduced to AgNps by 500?µL of I. carnea extract in 5?min and that one or more of the chemical constituents present in the extract acted as the reducing agent. Surface plasmon resonance peaks were observed from 410 to 440?nm for AgNps synthesised using the plant extract, and the peaks showed a characteristic blue shift with variation of pH from 2 to 8. Particle size analysis revealed the size of the AgNps to be from 30 to 130?nm, which was also confirmed by dynamic light scattering, atomic force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Additionally, the antibacterial effects of the AgNps were evaluated against selected human pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Aeromonas hydrophila, Salmonella typhi, Proteus vulgaris and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Finally, the AgNps were impregnated with a cellulose acetate membrane to form an antimycobacterial membrane. Antimycobacterial activity against a non-pathogenic Mycobacterium smegmatis showed that the AgNp-embedded membrane system has a zone of inhibition of 14?mm. 相似文献

The present study reports a simple and low cost synthesis of zero‐valent silver nanoparticles (ZVSNPs) from silver nitrate using the leaf extract of Spondias dulcis. The ZVSNPs showed a unique peak at 420 nm in UV–vis spectrum. The SEM image portrayed cuboidal shaped particles. The EDX spectrum designated the elemental silver peak at 3 keV. In XRD, a sharp peak at 32.47° denoted the existence of (1 0 1) lattice plane and the average crystallite size was calculated as 48.61 nm. The lattice parameter was determined as 0.39 nm. The FTIR spectra of the leaf extract and ZVSNPs showed shifts in the specific functional group bands which ascertained the involvement of phytoconstituents in the formation and capping of nanoparticles. The average hydrodynamic size was measured as 59.66 nm by DLS method. A low PDI, 0.187 witnessed the monodispersity. A negative zeta potential value of −15.7 mV indicated the negative surface charges of the nanoparticles. The bactericidal action of ZVSNPs was demonstrated against two pathogens S.typhimurium and E.coli during which a dosage dependent zone of inhibition results was observed. Additionally, the catalytic potential of ZVSNPs was examined for the degradation of methylene blue dye in which an accelerated degradation of the dye was observed.Inspec keywords: antibacterial activity, crystallites, electrokinetic effects, scanning electron microscopy, nanoparticles, particle size, ultraviolet spectra, X‐ray chemical analysis, microorganisms, light scattering, nanofabrication, materials preparation, X‐ray diffraction, visible spectra, silver, dyes, Fourier transform infrared spectraOther keywords: wavelength 420.0 nm, Ag, voltage ‐15.7 mV, size 59.66 nm, size 0.39 nm, size 48.61 nm, electron volt energy 3.0 keV, Fourier transform infrared spectra, methylene blue dye, bactericidal action, dynamic light scattering, lattice parameter, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Spondias dulcis, negative zeta potential, polydispersity index, crystallite size, leaf extract, X‐ray diffraction, energy dispersive X‐ray spectrum, cuboidal‐shaped particles, scanning electron microscopy image, ultraviolet–visible spectrum, silver nitrate, zero‐valent silver nanoparticles 相似文献

Here, Syzygium cumini leaf extract (LE) and seed extract (SE) were explored for the synthesis of gold nanoparticles (GNP). LE and SE as well as their polar (water) fractions showed potential for GNP synthesis. Comparative synthesis kinetics and morphological characterisation studies revealed the synthesis of smaller sized GNP by LE than SE. Only polar (water) fractions showed potential for GNP synthesis, which are smaller in size compared to their respective extracts. SE contained more polyphenols and biochemical constituents than LE and therefore, showed higher synthesis rate and bigger sized GNP. Atomic force microscope and scanning electron microscope analysis indicated that both extracts and their fractions catalysed the synthesis of spherical GNP. The average size of GNP synthesised by LE, leaf water fraction (LWF), SE and seed water fraction (SWF) were 24, 23, 35 and 32?nm, respectively. Fourier transform infrared analysis identified the biomolecules involved in the synthesis and stability of GNP. This study documented the potential of S. cumini for the synthesis of GNP in addition to silver nanoparticles (SNP). However, nature and types of polyphenols involved in GNP synthesis seem to be different from that involved in SNP synthesis. This might be the possible reason for smaller sized GNP that SNP. 相似文献

ABSTRACTSilver nanoparticles synthesised using aqueous extract of Cocos nucifera (CN) mesocarp were evaluated for their photocatalytic activity under solar irradiation. The silver nanoparticles were synthesised by a green method of harnessing bioactive phytocomponents from the mesocarp of Cocos nucifera. Large-scale application of this process necessitates the manoeuvering of the process parameters for increasing the conversion of silver ions to nanoparticles. Process parameters influencing the morphological characteristics of silver nanoparticles such as precursor salt concentration and pH of the synthesis mixture were studied. The crystalline nanoparticles were characterised using UV-vis spectroscopy, XRD, FTIR, SEM and EDX analysis. CN extract and 5 mM silver nitrate solution at a ratio of 1:4 (v/v) in the synthesis mixture was found to be the optimum. Alkaline initial pH of the synthesis mixture was found to favour the synthesis of smaller sized monodispersed silver nanoparticles. Solar energy was harnessed for the photocatalytic degradation of Malachite green dye using silver nanoparticles obtained through the green synthesis method. Overall process aims at utilisation of naturally available resource for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles as well as the degradation of dyes using these nanoparticles, making it useful in the treatment of wastewater. 相似文献
