Green synthesis of silver and copper nanoparticles using ascorbic acid and chitosan for antimicrobial applications.
Silver and copper nanoparticles were produced by chemical reduction of their respective nitrates by ascorbic acid in the presence of chitosan using microwave heating. Particle size was shown to increase by increasing the concentration of nitrate and reducing the chitosan concentration. Surface zeta potentials were positive for all nanoparticles produced and these varied from 27.8 to 33.8 mV. An...
متن کاملExtracellular Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Pseudomonas aeruginosa KUPSB12 and Its Antibacterial Activity
The use of microorganisms like bacteria in the synthesis of nanoparticles emerges as an eco-friendly approach and an alternative to the chemical method. In the present investigation, we report the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using the phosphate solubilizing bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa KUPSB12. Silver nanoparticles were synthesized through the reduction of aqueous Ag ion us...
متن کاملSynthesis, characterization and antibacterial assessment of SiO2-hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose hybrid materials with embedded silver nanoparticles
Antibacterial SiO2 hybrid materials based on tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS), hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) and silver were prepared by the sol-gel method. The content of cellulose derivate was 5 wt% and the silver concentration varied from 0.5 wt% to 2.5 wt%. The amorphous nature, morphology and antibacterial behaviour were studied. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra of the hybrid...
متن کاملCombined application of sub-toxic level of silver nanoparticles with low powers of 2450 MHz microwave radiation lead to kill Escherichia coli in a short time
Objective(s):Electromagnetic radiations which have lethal effects on the living cells are currently also considered as a disinfective physical agent. Materials and Methods: In this investigation, silver nanoparticles were applied to enhance the lethal action of low powers (100 and 180 W) of 2450 MHz electromagnetic radiation especially against Escherichia coli ATCC 8739. Silver nanoparticles ...
متن کاملAntihelmenthic And Antimicrobial Activity Of Green Synthesized Silver Nanoparticles From Illicium Verum Hook.F. Fruit
Illicium verum Hooker fillius or commonly called star anise is a member of Magnoliaceae. The synthesis of metal nanoparticles is a growing area for research due to its potentiality in the application and development of advanced technologies. In general, nanoparticles are synthesized by using chemical methods which are not eco-friendly. Here, we have used a fast, convenient and environment-frien...
