Abstract
Biothiols play essential roles in maintaining normal physiological functions, resisting oxidative stress, and protecting cell health. Establishing an effective and reliable sensor array for the accurate quantification and discrimination of diverse biothiols is extremely meaningful. In this work, Ag/Mn3O4, Ag3PO4, and Ag3Cit with excellent oxidase-mimetic activity and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-enhanced features have been prepared and loaded onto Whatman filter paper (WFP) to build SERS paper chips as three sensing channels, which can induce 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) oxidation to SERS-active reporters (TMBox) and concurrently generate prominent SERS signals. Nevertheless, the addition of biothiols can suppress conversion from TMB to TMBox, which can cause the reduction of the SERS signal from TMBox. Interestingly, each SERS sensing channel can generate different TMBox signals' variations due to differences in the oxidative inhibition abilities of diverse biothiols and exclusive properties of each paper chip, which can be plotted as specific fingerprint patterns of each biothiol and further translated into intuitive two-dimensional (2D) clustering profiles through linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) techniques for precise identification of these six biothiols with the minimum concentration of 1 μM. More importantly, this SERS sensor array is exploited for the precise quantification of intracellular glutathione (GSH), and can differentiate between normal and cancer cells based on different intracellular GSH contents and even identify different types of tumor cells, demonstrating its powerful application prospects in disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Due to their widespread application in water purification, there is a significant interest in synthesising nanoscale photocatalysts. Nanophotocatalysts are primarily manufactured through chemical methods, which can lead to side effects like pollution, high-energy usage, and even health issues. To address these issues, "green synthesis" was developed, which involves using plant extracts as reductants or capping agents rather than industrial chemical agents. Green fabrication has the benefits of costs less, pollution reduction, environmental protection and human health safety, compared to the traditional methods. This article summarises recent advances in the environmentally friendly synthesis of various nanophotocatalysts employed in the degradation of azo dyes. This study compiles critical findings on natural and artificial methods to achieve the goal. Green synthesis is constrained by the time and place of production and issues with low purity and poor yield, reflecting the complexity of plants' geographical and seasonal distributions and their compositions. However, green photocatalyst synthesis provides additional growth opportunities and potential uses.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is gaining enormous attention as the most dynamic research area in science and technology. It involves the synthesis and applications of nanomaterials in diverse fields including medical, agriculture, textiles, food technology, cosmetics, aerospace, electronics, etc. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been extensively used in such applications due to their excellent physicochemical, antibacterial, and biological properties. The use of plant extract as a biological reactor is one of the most promising solutions for the synthesis of AgNPs because this process overcomes the drawbacks of physical and chemical methods. This review article summarizes the plant-mediated synthesis process, the probable reaction mechanism, and the colorimetric sensing applications of AgNPs. Plant-mediated synthesis parameters largely affect the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) characteristic due to the changes in the size and shape of AgNPs. These changes in the size and shape of plant-mediated AgNPs are elaborately discussed here by analyzing the surface plasmon resonance characteristics. Furthermore, this article also highlights the promising applications of plant-mediated AgNPs in sensing applications regarding the detection of mercury, hydrogen peroxide, lead, and glucose. Finally, it describes the future perspective of plant-mediated AgNPs for the development of green chemistry.

Abstract
Bee bread (BB) is a fermented mixture of bee pollen, is rich in proteins, amino acids, fatty acids, polyphenols, flavonoids, as well as other bioactive compounds, and is considered functional food for humans. In this study, we explored an innovative green synthesis of colloidal silver nanoparticles, using BB extracts as reducing and stabilizing agents. A preliminary chemical characterization of the BB extracts was conducted. The plasmonic response of the as-synthesized silver nanoparticles (BB-AgNPs) was evaluated by UV-Vis spectroscopy, while their hydrodynamic diameter and zeta potential were investigated by dynamic light spectroscopy (DLS). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis pointed out polydisperse NPs with quasi-spherical shapes. The newly synthesized nanoparticles showed good antioxidant activity against the tested free radicals, DPPH, ABTS•+, and FRAP, the best results being obtained in the case of ABTS•+. BB-AgNPs exhibited good antibacterial activity on the tested Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains: herein S. aureus, B. cereus, E. faecalis, E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. enteritidis, and on yeast C. albicans, respectively. The inhibition diameters varied between 7.67 ± 0.59 and 22.21 ± 1.06 mm, while the values obtained for minimum inhibitory concentration varied between 0.39 and 6.25 µg/mL. In vitro antiproliferative activity was tested on colon adenocarcinoma, ATCC HTB-37 cell line, and the results have shown that the green synthetized BB-AgNPs induced a substantial decrease in tumor cell viability in a dose-dependent manner with an IC50 ranging from 24.58 to 67.91 µg/mL. Consequently, more investigation is required to comprehend the processes of the cytotoxicity of AgNPs and develop strategies to mitigate their potentially harmful effects while harnessing their antimicrobial properties.

Abstract
Bacterial biofilms are a significant problem in the food industry, as they are difficult to eradicate and represent a threat to consumer health. Currently, nanoparticles as an alternative to traditional chemical disinfectants have garnered much attention due to their broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and low toxicity. In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized by a biological method using a Jacaranda mimosifolia flower aqueous extract and by a chemical method, and the factors affecting both syntheses were optimized. The nanoparticles were characterized by Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Dynamic light scattering (DLS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with a spherical and uniform shape. The antibacterial and antibiofilm formation activity was carried out on bacterial species of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus with the capacity to form biofilm. The minimum inhibitory concentration was 117.5 μg/mL for the chemical and 5.3 μg/mL for the biological nanoparticles. Both types of nanoparticles showed antibiofilm activity in the qualitative Congo red test and in the quantitative microplate test. Antibiofilm activity tests on fresh lettuce showed that biological nanoparticles decreased the population of S. aureus and P. aeruginosa by 0.63 and 2.38 logarithms, respectively, while chemical nanoparticles had little microbial reduction. In conclusion, the biologically synthesized nanoparticles showed greater antibiofilm activity. Therefore, these results suggest their potential application in the formulation of sanitizing products for the food and healthcare industries.

Abstract
The bio-based nanoparticles synthesis and assessment of their potential biomedical applications related research is rapidly emerging. The ability of an aqueous ethanolic bark extract of Mangifera indica to synthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as well as its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer activities were investigated in this study. Interestingly, the bark extract effectively synthesized the AgNPs, including an absorbance peak at 412 nm and sizes ranging from 56 to 89 nm. The Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis confirmed that the presence of most essential functional groups belongs to the most bioactive compounds. Synthesized AgNPs showed fine antibacterial activity against the Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) causing bacterial pathogens such as Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, and Staphylococcus saprophyticus at 50 μg mL-1 concentrations. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of AgNPs against these pathogens were found as 12.5 ± 0.8 & 13 ± 0.6, 13.6 ± 0.5 & 14 ± 0.7, 11.5 ± 0.3 & 11.5 ± 0.4, 13 ± 0.8 & 13 ± 0.7, and 11.8 ± 0.4 & 12 ± 0.8 μg mL-1 respectively. Interestingly, this AgNPs also possesses outstanding anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities as studied against the egg albumin denaturation (85%) inhibition and MCF 7 (Michigan Cancer Foundation-7: breast cancer cells) cell line (cytotoxicity: 80.1%) at 50 μg mL-1 concentration. Similarly at 50 μg mL-1 concentration showed 75% of DPPH radical scavenging potential. These activities were dose dependent, and the findings suggest that the M. indica bark aqueous ethanolic extract synthesized AgNPs can be used as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer agents after in-vivo testing.

Abstract
The current study proposes a green synthesis method for silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) using various concentrations of Flos Sophorae Immaturus extract as reducing and capping agents. The UV-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) were used to characterize resulting brown nanopowder. The as-prepared Ag NPs had a high negative zeta potential value of ∼ -38 mv, indicating the existence of electrostatic stabilization. The average sizes of ∼27.8 nm, 28.5 nm, 34.3 nm and 36.5 nm were measured by TEM. Moreover, FTIR and XPS analyses validated the production and chemical composition of Ag NPs from silver nitrate. The antibacterial activity of Ag NPs was examined against E. coli, P. aeruginosa, and S. aureus using agar well diffusion and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method. The antibacterial activity of the as-prepared Ag NPs from 4 mL extract was excellent against E. coli, P. aeruginosa, and S. aureus and the MIC values were 31.250, 15.625, and 31.250 mg/L, respectively. Based on these results, this study proposes a practical approach for the synthesis of Ag NPs in the industry and medical fields.

Abstract
The Arabian desert is rich in different species of medicinal plants, which approved variable antimicrobial activities. Phoenix dactylifera L. is one of the medical trees rich in phenolic acids and flavonoids. The current study aimed to assess the antibacterial and antifungal properties of the silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) green-synthesized by two preparations (ethanolic and water extracts) from palm leaves. The characteristics of the produced AgNPs were tested by UV-visible spectroscopy and Transmitted Electron Microscopy (TEM). The antifungal activity of Phoenix dactylifera L. was tested against different species of Candida. Moreover, its antibacterial activity was evaluated against two Gram-positive and two Gram-negative strains. The results showed that AgNPs had a spherical larger shape than the crude extracts. AgNPs, from both preparations, had significant antimicrobial effects. The water extract had slightly higher antimicrobial activity than the ethanolic extract, as it induced more inhibitory effects against all species. That suggests the possible use of palm leaf extracts against different pathogenic bacteria and fungi instead of chemical compounds, which had economic and health benefits.

Abstract
A novel, eco-friendly, and biocompatible method was applied to form silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in great water dock (Lapathi radix) (KB) and pu-erh (Camellia sinensis) (PE) extracts. The surface plasma resonance peak of green synthesized AgNPs at 451.8 nm for AgNPs+KB and 440.8 nm for AgNPs+PE was observed via spectral analysis of UV absorbance. In this study, double-layered biopolymer films (FUR/CHIT+HGEL) with AgNPs incorporated in KB solution (AgNPs+KB) and AgNPs in PE solution (AgNPs+PE), were successfully prepared using the casting method. The SEM, XRD, zeta potential and size analyses confirmed the presence of AgNP in the films. The addition of AgNPs in plant extracts improved antimicrobial and antioxidant activity and thermal stability, whereas WVTR experienced a decrease. The nanocomposite films’ orange-brown colour may aid in the protection of food products against UV rays. The composite films demonstrated antibacterial activity against food-borne pathogens and may offer potential in food packaging applications.

Systematic green synthesis of silver oxide nanoparticles for antimicrobial activity. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2021; 202:111627. [PMID: 34246640 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2021.111627] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2021] [Revised: 06/20/2021] [Accepted: 06/28/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
In this present research, we succeeded in synthesizing nanostructured silver particles (NS-AgPs) using bio active agent present in the leaf extracts of Cleome gynandra (CG) under green synthesis. While adding silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution in green extracts of CG leaf containing bio compound, the mixture turns from yellow to reddish brown, as a consequence of existence of nanostructured silver particles (NS-AgPs) and later UV instrument is used to obtain the Ultraviolet visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) spectra to confirm existing nanostructured silver particles (NS-AgPs) in aqueous solutions (synthesized sample). To confirm existing functional groups in NS-AgPs, the fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) study is carried throughout this research. The scanning and tunneling of wave like nature of electrons passing through powdered NS-AgPs sample gives Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images respectively, which are carried out to find out the 2-dimensional size and shape distribution of NS-AgPs. Further dynamic light scattering (DLS) and zeta potential studies are used to confirm the size and good stability of NS-AgPs respectively. It is evident that NS-AgPs exhibits a strong toxic activity against microorganism and to confirm this mechanism the antibacterial (against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus) study is carried out.

Phyto-Extract-Mediated Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Aqueous Extract of Sanvitalia procumbens, and Characterization, Optimization and Photocatalytic Degradation of Azo Dyes Orange G and Direct Blue-15. Molecules 2021; 26:6144. [PMID: 34684724 PMCID: PMC8540290 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26206144] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2021] [Revised: 10/06/2021] [Accepted: 10/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) employing an aqueous plant extract has emerged as a viable eco-friendly method. The aim of the study was to synthesize AgNPs by using plant extract of Sanvitalia procumbens (creeping zinnia) in which the phytochemicals present in plant extract act as a stabilizing and reducing agent. For the stability of the synthesized AgNPs, different parameters like AgNO3 concentration, volume ratios of AgNO3, temperature, pH, and contact time were studied. Further, AgNPs were characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy, FT-IR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy), XRD (X-ray Diffraction), SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy), and EDX (Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectrometer) analysis. FT-IR analysis showed that the plant extract contained essential functional groups like O-H stretching of carboxylic acid, N-H stretching of secondary amides, and C-N stretching of aromatic amines, and C-O indicates the vibration of alcohol, ester, and carboxylic acid that facilitated in the green synthesis of AgNPs. The crystalline nature of synthesized AgNPs was confirmed by XRD, while the elemental composition of AgNPs was detected by energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). SEM studies showed the mean particle diameter of silver nanoparticles. The synthesized AgNPs were used for photocatalytic degradation of Orange G and Direct blue-15 (OG and DB-15), which were analyzed by UV-visible spectroscopy. Maximum degradation percentage of OG and DB-15 azo dyes was observed, without any significant silver leaching, thereby signifying notable photocatalytic properties of AgNPs.

A novel biogenic Allium cepa leaf mediated silver nanoparticles for antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer effects on MCF-7 cell line. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2021; 198:111199. [PMID: 33932479 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2021.111199] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2021] [Revised: 04/11/2021] [Accepted: 04/12/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
In the present study, Allium cepa leaf extract was utilized to reduce the silver nitrate into the nanoscale range of silver ions (Ag NPs). The biosynthesized Ag NPs were extensively characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), Dynamic light scattering analysis (DLS), UV-Visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The antioxidant activity of synthesized Ag NPs was verified by DPPH assay. From the results obtained from XRD and DLS studies, the size of Ag NPs was determined to be around 54.3 nm. The measured zeta potential value of -19.1 mV confirms the excellent stability of biosynthesized Ag NPs. TEM analyses reveal that the biosynthesized Ag NPs have a spherical structure of 13 nm in size. The presence of various functional groups was confirmed through FTIR studies and EDAX verifies the weight percentage of silver content in biosynthesized nanoparticles to be 30.33%. In the present study, anti-cancer activity was carried out by using breast cancer cell line MCF-7. Further, silver nanoparticles exhibited antimicrobial effectiveness against gram-positive Bacillus cereus and gram-negative Escherichia coli. The MTT assay also showed better cytotoxic activity against the MCF- 7 cell line.
