In recent years, nanobiotechnology has emerged as an elementary division of modern science and a noval epoch in the fields material is receiving global attention due to its ample applications. Various physical, chemical, biological methods have been employed synthesize nanomaterials. Biological systems such bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, yeasts, viruses, plants reported various metal oxide nanoparticles. Among these, biosynthesis nanoparticles from seems be very effective method developing...
The present study demonstrates an eco-friendly and low cost protocol for synthesis of silver nanoparticles using the cell-free filtrate Aspergillus flavusNJP08 when supplied with aqueous (Ag+) ions. Identification fungal isolate was based on nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) identities. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) revealed formation spherical metallic nanoparticles. average particle size calculated Dynamic Light Scattering...
In recent years, the use of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in biomedical applications has shown an unprecedented boost along with simultaneous expansion rapid, high-yielding, and sustainable AgNP synthesis methods that can deliver particles well-defined characteristics. The present study demonstrates potential metal-tolerant soil fungal isolate Penicillium shearii AJP05 for protein-capped AgNPs. were characterized using standard techniques, namely, UV–visible spectroscopy, transmission...
The present study demonstrates an economical and environmental affable approach for the synthesis of "protein-capped" silver nanoparticles in aqueous solvent system. A variety standard techniques viz. UV-visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements were employed to characterize shape, size composition nanoparticles. synthesized found be homogenous, spherical, mono-dispersed covered with multi-layered...
Infections associated with antimicrobial-resistant bacteria now represent a significant threat to human health using conventional therapy, necessitating the development of alternate and more effective antibacterial compounds. Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) have been proposed as potential antimicrobial agents combat infections. A complete understanding their activity is required before these molecules can be used in therapy. Lysozyme coated Ag NPs were synthesized characterized by TEM-EDS,...
Abstract In present study, 15 morphologically different fungi isolated from rhizopheric soils of an industrial area were screened for their Zn 2+ removal efficiency aqueous solution. Isolate depicting highest potential was molecularly identified as Aspergillus terreus SJP02. Effect various process parameters viz. biosorbent dose, contact time, temperature, agitation rate, pH and initial concentration on the fungal sorption capacity studied. The exhibited maximum 10.7 ± 0.2 mg g − 1 in 60...
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a Gram-negative rod-shaped bacterium is notorious pathogen causing chronic infections. Its ability to form antibiotic-resistant biofilm has raised the need for development of alternative treatment approaches. An ideal alternate can be silver nanoparticles known their strong yet tunable bactericidal activity. However, use in commercial vivo medicine could not see light day because unwanted toxicity host cells at higher concentrations. Thus, strategies which modulate...
