Biocompatibilities of nanoparticles are crucial for biomedical applications. Diverse silver nanoparticles (5 nm, 10 nm, 20 nm, 40 nm and 80 nm) caped with citrate and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were synthesized and primed their protein coronas. Nanoparticles were characterized with UV-visible spectroscope, Dynamic light scattering (DLS) and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). Comparative biocompatibilities were verified and recorded using MTS techniques. Human hepatoma carcinoma HepG2) cell line was used for measuring cytotoxic effect by MTS assays. Deleterious and comparative behaviors of citrate and PVP supported nanoparticles with varied dimensions were investigated and concluded; that citrate caped nanoparticles are comparatively less toxic and independent of size than PVP supported nanoparticles, having increased cytotoxicity with increasing size. The cytotoxic effect of citrate caped and its protein coronas nanoparticles was insignificant, while the boosted concentration of PVP supported nanoparticles enhanced the toxic effect, which endorsed enlarged size and amount of PVP supported nanoparticles. As medicinal precursors, the overwhelming use of PVP nanoparticles should be avoided, and a unique protocol must be designed if its use is crucial and unavoidable.

This study reports the biosynthesis of narrow range diameter silver nanoparticles at optimum conditions usingEucalyptus corymbiaas a reducing and stabilizing agent. Optimal conditions for biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were found to be; an extraction temperature of 90°C, pH of 5.7 a Silver Nitrate concentration of 1mM and AgNO3to plant extract ratio of 4:1. UV-Visible spectroscopy monitored the formation of colloidal AgNPs. The UV-Visible spectrum showed a peak around 425 nm corresponding to the Plasmon absorbance of the AgNPs. The size and shape characterization of the AgNPs was done using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) techniques which revealed narrow range diameter (18-20 nm), almost monodispersed AgNPs, spherical in nature and with minimal agglomeration. Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) results showed the presence of two peaks at 3.0 and 3.15 keV in the silver region. The Fourier Transform Infrared-Spectra (FTIR) of the plant extract and the AgNPs gave rise to vibrational peaks at 3260 and 1634 wavenumbers which are due to the presence of OH and –C=C-functional groups respectively.

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are the most commonly used nanoparticles (NPs) in medicine, industry and cosmetics. They are generally considered as biocompatible. However, contradictory reports on their biosafety render them difficult to accept as ‘safe’. In this study, we evaluated the neurotoxicity of direct AgNP treatment in rat hippocampal slices. We produced pure uncoated AgNPs by a pulsed laser ablation method. NP characterization was performed by Ultraviolet (UV) visible spectrophotometer, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope (TEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Rat hippocampal slices were treated with AgNPs for an hour. AgNP exposure of hippocampal tissue resulted in a significant decrease in cell survival in a dose-dependent manner. Our TEM results showed that AgNPs were distributed in the extracellular matrix and were taken into the cytoplasm of the neurons. Moreover, we found that only larger AgNPs were taken into the neurons via phagocytosis. This study showed that the pure AgNPs produced by laser ablation are toxic to the neural tissue. We also found that neurons internalized only the large NPs by phagocytosis which seems to be the major mechanism in AgNP neurotoxicity.

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) synthesized are utilized in drugs because of their pharmacological and biomedical applications and also due to their ecofriendly properties. In the present study, stable AgNPs have been synthesized from the aqueous extract of Dalbergia rostrata stem bark (DRSB), which is used both as a reducing and as a stabilizing agent. The AgNPs synthesized by ultrasonication at 25°C for 10 min were found to be stable in aqueous solution at room temperature over a period of 3 months. The quantitatively stable AgNPs formed by treating the aqueous solution of AgNO3 with the aqueous extract of the plant by reduction of Ag+ ions when monitored by UV–visible spectroscopic study revealed the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) at 425 nm. According to transmission electron micrography, the NPs were spherical and in the size range of 14 ± 4 nm. When evaluated for their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity by in vitro methods, AgNPs showed considerably enhanced activity compared to DRSB aqueous extract.

This study used the carbon dots solution for the laser ablation technique to fabricate silver nanoparticles. The ablation time range was from 5 min to 20 min. Analytical methods, including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy were used to categorize the prepared samples. The UV-visible and z-scan techniques provided optical parameters such as linear and nonlinear refractive indices in the range of 1.56759 to 1.81288 and 7.3769 × 10−10 cm2 W−1 to 9.5269 × 10−10 cm2 W−1 and the nonlinear susceptibility was measured in the range of 5.46 × 10−8 to 6.97 × 10−8 esu. The thermal effusivity of prepared samples, which were measured using the photoacoustic technique, were in the range of 0.0941 W s1/2 cm−2 K−1 to 0.8491 W s1/2 cm−2 K−1. The interaction of the prepared sample with fluoride was investigated using a Raman spectrometer. Consequently, the intensity of the Raman signal decreased with the increasing concentration of fluoride, and the detection limit is about 0.1 ppm.

This paper continues our previous work on preparation of triangular silver nanoparticles. The method proceeds with reaction of silver nitrate with hydrazine hydrate in the presence of polyvinyl pyrrolidone in aqueous solution. Effects of the concentration of PVP on the morphologies of Ag NPs were systematically investigated. The obtained Ag NPs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy and UV-visible spectrophotometer. The results showed that, triangular Ag NPs with edge lengths in the range of 50-200 nm were obtained using PVP as protective agent with lower concentration. As the concentration of PVP increased, spherical Ag NPs with their sizes about 6.2 nm were prepared and triangular Ag NPs were not obtained. The formation mechanism of triangular Ag NPs has been studied. Ostwald ripening is the driving force on the conversion of spherical Ag NPs to triangular Ag NPs in the presence of PVP.

Silver Nanoparticle Synthesis

  This review is based on the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using a green approach which is biofabricated from various medicinal plants. AgNPs were prepared from the various parts of the plants such as the flowers, stems, leaves, and fruits. Various physiochemical characterizations were performed using the ultraviolet (UV)-visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy. AgNPs were also used to inhibit the growth of bacterial pathogens and were found to be effective against both the Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. For the silver to have antimicrobial properties, it must be present in the ionized form. All the forms of silver-containing compounds with the observed antimicrobial properties are in one way or another source of silver ions. Although the antimicrobial properties of silver have been known, it is thought that the silver atoms bind to the thiol groups in enzymes and subsequently leads to the deactivation of enzymes. For the silver to have antimicrobial properties, it must be present in the ionized form. The study suggested that the action of the AgNPs on the microbial cells resulted into cell lysis and DNA damage. AgNPs have proved their candidature as a potential antibacterial against the multidrug-resistant microbes. The biological agents for synthesizing AgNPs cover compounds produced naturally in microbes and plants. Reaction parameters under which the AgNPs were being synthesized hold prominent impact on their size, shape, and application. Silver nanoparticle synthesis and their application are summarized and critically discussed in this review.
