In the present study, synthesis, characterization, and the antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles from native isolate of Corynebacterium glutamicum has been reported. Silver nanoparticles were synthesized by challenging the dried biomass of C. glutamicum with aqueous diamine silver ([Ag (NH3)2]+) containing 1 mM AgNO3. Synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were characterized by ultra...

This study was performed to determine whether extracellular silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) production is a genus-wide phenotype associated with all the members of genus Morganella, or only Morganella morganii RP-42 isolate is able to synthesize extracellular Ag nanoparticles. To undertake this study, all the available Morganella isolates were exposed to Ag+ ions, and the obtained nanoproducts wer...

BACKGROUND There is worldwide interest in silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) synthesized by various chemical reactions for use in applications exploiting their antibacterial activity, even though these processes exhibit a broad range of toxicity in vertebrates and invertebrates alike. To avoid the chemical toxicity, biosynthesis (green synthesis) of metal nanoparticles is proposed as a cost-effective...

Antimicrobial resistant becomes a major factor virtually in all hospitals acquired infection may soon be untreatable; it leads to cause serious public health problem. These concerns have led to major research effort to discover alternative strategies for the treatment of bacterial infection. Nanobiotechnology is an upcoming and fast developing field with potential application for human welfare....

Biosynthesised nanoparticles have wider applications in medical and pharmaceutical fields. In our study aims to synthesis silver nanoparticles using biological source Serratia marcescens. The nano particle synthesis was optimized with different pH of the culture medium and concentration of metal salts that affected the nanoparticles formation during synthesis. Culture medium with different pH s...

In the present study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized via biological reduction of silver nitrate using extract of the fungus Fusarium verticillioides (green chemistry principle). The synthesized nanoparticles were spherical and homogenous in size. AgNPs were coated with polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). The averaged diameters ...

   In the present work, a fast, green and simple synthesis method for the production of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) is introduced. Silver nanoparticles are currently among the most widely used man-made nano materials, present in a wide range of consumer products. Green chemistry is characterized by careful planning of chemical synthesis of silver nanoparticles to reduce adverse outcomes. S...

according to the increased probability of the presence of nanomaterials in the aquatic ecosystems, the present study examined the toxicity of three engineered silver nanoparticles (agnps) as well as silver ions in the pontogammarus maeoticus, a brackish water benthic organism living in the littoral zone of the caspian sea. the animals were acutely exposed to different concentrations of two comm...

Objective(s): For the development of reliable, ecofriendly, less expensive process for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles and to evaluate the bactericidal, and cytotoxicity properties of silver nanoparticles synthesized from root extract of Croton bonplandianum, Baill. Materials and Methods: The synthesis of silver nanoparticles by plant part of Croton bonplandianum was carried out.  The for...

serious concerns have been expressed about potential health risks of nano silver containing consumer products (agnps) therefore regulatory health risk assessment on such nanoparticles has become mandatory for the safe use of agnpsinbiomedicalproducts with special concerns to the mutagenic potentials. in this study, we examined the inhibitory and mutagenicity effects of agnps in three different ...
