Insight into the formation and biological effects of natural organic matter corona on silver nanoparticles in water environment using biased cyclical electrical field-flow fractionation. WATER RESEARCH 2023; 228:119355. [PMID: 36423551 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2022.119355] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2022] [Revised: 11/08/2022] [Accepted: 11/12/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Natural organic matter (NOM) readily interacts with nanoparticles, leading to the formation of NOM corona structures on their surface. NOM corona formation is closely related to the surface coatings and bioavailability of nanoparticles. However, the mechanism underlying NOM corona formation on silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) remains largely unknown due to the lack of effective analytical methods for identifying the changes in the AgNP surface. Herein, the separation ability of biased cyclical electrical field-flow fractionation (BCyElFFF) for same-sized polyvinyl pyrrolidone-coated and poly(ethylene glycol)-coated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with different electrophoretic mobilities was evaluated under various electrical conditions. Then, the mechanism behind the NOM corona formation on these AgNP surfaces was elucidated based on the changes in the elution time and off-line characterization of the collected fractions during their elution time in a BCyElFFF run. Finally, the survival rates of E. coli exposed to polyvinyl pyrrolidone-coated and poly(ethylene glycol)-coated AgNPs with or without NOM collected during repeated BCyElFFF runs were observed to increase with increasing NOM concentration, clearly demonstrating the negative effect of NOM corona structures on the bioavailability of AgNPs. These findings highlight the powerful separation and isolation ability of BCyElFFF in studying the transformation and fate of nanoparticles in aqueous environments.
