Biogenic production of silver nanoparticles by Enterobacter cloacae Ism26.

ABSTRACT: A bacterial isolate capable of tolerating 30 mM silver nitrate (AgNO3) was recovered from soil contaminated with industrial waste. The isolate was identified by 16S rRNA as Enterobacter cloacae Ism26 (KP988024) and its capability to synthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was investigated. AgNPs were produced by mixing 1 mM AgNO3 solution with bacterial cell lysate under light conditions. The UV-Vis spectrum of the aqueous medium containing AgNPs exhibited a peak at 440 nm corresponding to the surface plasmon resonance of the AgNPs. The crystalline nature of the particles was confirmed by X-ray difractometer. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy revealed that the AgNPs were spherical and well dispersed and ranged in size from 7 to 25 nm. The average size range of the produced AgNPs was confirmed by dynamic light scattering. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy revealed possible involvement of reductive groups on the surface of the nanoparticles. The biosynthesized AgNPs were stable for 6 months and inhibited both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. This work describes the exploitation of a low-cost biomaterial and an easy method for the synthesis of AgNPs with desirable and advantageous characteristics.

Project description:Background:Biological synthesis of nanomaterials possesses unprecedented potential in the production of nanomaterials due to their ability to produce nanomaterials with improved biocompatibility in addition to eco-friendly synthetic procedures. Methods:This article reports the isolation of an air-borne fungus from the campus of Integral University, Lucknow, with an exceptional ability to withstand very high concentrations of silver salt. The fungus was found to produce pentagonal silver nanoparticles (AgPgNps) when silver ions were reduced from silver nitrate. Molecular analysis and biochemical characterization techniques based on 18-seconds rRNA identified the fungus to belong to the Aspergillus sp. with the NCBI accession no KF913249. Material characterization techniques including ultraviolet (UV)-visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and zeta potential analysis were used to satisfactorily characterize the as-synthesized AgPgNps. Results:The AgPgNps synthesized by the fungus Aspergillus sp. exhibit an absorption that is maximum centered at about 416 nm, with a standard particle size of 23.22±2 nm. These AgPgNps exhibited broad-spectrum antimicrobial activities against an array of bacterial pathogens with remarkable minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC50) values: Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923) - 9.230 µg/mL, Bacillus sp. (ATCC 14593) - 12.781 µg/mL, Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922) - 5.063 µg/mL, and Klebsiella pneumoniae (ATCC 13883) - 5.426 µg/mL. In vitro cytotoxicity analysis of biosynthesized AgPgNps showed a dose-response activity against human cervical cancer cell line (HeLa) and adenocarcinoma cells (A549) with MIC50 values of 0.038 µg/mL and 0.044 µg/mL, respectively. Conclusion:These findings are very crucial to evaluate the biosynthetic process for the synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) with unique properties. These NPs may find potential applications in sensing, medicine, and antimicrobial and anticancer therapies.
