Radiolytic Synthesis

Radiolytic synthesis provides a convenient and environmentally-friendly approach to prepare metallic nanoparticles in large scale with narrow size distribution. In this report, colloidal silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized by gamma radiation using poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) or silk fibroin (SF) as stabilizers and were evaluated for their antibacterial properties. The conversion of metallic silver ions to silver atoms depended on irradiation dose and stabilizer concentration as determined by UV-Vis spectrophotometry and transmission electron microscopy. The uniformly dispersed AgNPs with diameter 32.3 ± 4.40 nm were evaluated as antiseptic agents in films composed of chitosan, SF, and PVA that were processed by irradiation-induced crosslinking. Using disc diffusion assay, the films containing 432 ppm AgNPs could effectively inhibit the growth of bothStaphylococcus aureusandPseudomonas aeruginosa. Therefore, we have demonstrated in our present study that gamma radiation technique can potentially be applied in the mass production of antibacterial wound dressings.

Oxidation characteristics of colloidal silver nanoparticles produced by pulsed laser ablation in pure and chemically treated water are studied as a function of the degree of ozonization. The bright yellow colloidal solution of silver characterized by a sharp surface plasmon mode at ~400 nm, becomes colorless in the initial stages of O 3 flow, and then acquires a brown hue with a broad plasmon peak centered at ~440 to ~450 nm on further ozonization. The solution again becomes colorless in a few days once the O 3 flow is stopped. We present a qualitative model for the reaction dynamics and analyze the optical absorption in the framework of an effective medium theory. The aqueous phase laser ablation chemistry described here provides a unique means to produce ionic silver for enhanced antimicrobial effects.
