This study investigated the green biosynthesis of gold (Au) and silver-gold alloy (Ag-Au) nanoparticles using cell-free extract of Bacillus safensis LAU 13 strain (GenBank accession No: KJ461434). The biosynthesized AuNPs and Ag-AuNPs were characterized using UV-Vis spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Evaluation of the antifungal activities, degradation of malachite green, anti-coagulation of blood, and thrombolysis of human blood clot by the biosynthesized nanoparticles were investigated. The AuNPs and Ag-AuNPs had maximum absorbance at 561 and 545 nm, respectively. The FTIR peaks at 3318, 2378, 2114, 1998, 1636, 1287, 446, 421 cm for AuNPs; and 3310, 2345, 2203, 2033, 1636, 1273, 502, 453, 424 cm for Ag-AuNPs indicated that proteins were the capping and stabilization molecules in the biosynthesized nanoparticles. The particles were fairly spherical in shape with size of 10-45 nm for AuNPs and 13-80 nm for Ag-AuNPs. Moreover, energy dispersive X-ray analysis of AuNPs revealed gold as the most prominent metal in the AuNPs solution, while silver and gold were the most prominent in the case of Ag-AuNPs. Selected area electron diffraction showed the biosynthesized nanoparticles as crystal structures with ring shape pattern. AuNPs and Ag-AuNPs displayed growth inhibitions of 66.67-90.78% against strains of Aspergillus fumigatus and A. niger at concentration of 200 μg/ml , and remarkable degradation (> 90%) of malachite green after 48 h. Furthermore, the nanoparticles prevented coagulation of blood, and also completely dissolved blood clots, indicating the biomedical potential of AuNPs and Ag-AuNPs in the management of blood coagulation disorders. This is the first report of the synthesis of AuNPs and Ag-AuNPs using a strain of B. safensis for biomedical and catalytic applications.
本研究利用安全芽孢杆菌LAU 13菌株(GenBank登录号:KJ461434)的无细胞提取物,对金(Au)纳米颗粒和银金合金(Ag-Au)纳米颗粒进行绿色生物合成。采用紫外可见光谱、傅里叶变换红外光谱和透射电子显微镜对生物合成的金纳米颗粒和银金纳米颗粒进行表征。研究了生物合成纳米颗粒的抗真菌活性、孔雀石绿降解、血液抗凝和人血凝块溶栓作用。金纳米颗粒和银金纳米颗粒的最大吸收峰分别在561和545 nm处。金纳米颗粒在3318、2378、2114、1998、1636、1287、446、421 cm-1处的傅里叶变换红外光谱峰;银金纳米颗粒在3310、2345、2203、2033、1636、1273、502、453、424 cm-1处的峰表明蛋白质是生物合成纳米颗粒中的封端和稳定分子。金纳米颗粒的形状相当呈球形,尺寸为直径10-45nm,银金纳米颗粒为13-80nm。此外,金纳米颗粒的能量色散X射线分析表明金是金纳米颗粒溶液中最主要的金属,而银和金是银金纳米颗粒溶液中最主要的金属。选区电子衍射显示生物合成的纳米颗粒为具有环形图案的晶体结构。金纳米颗粒和银金纳米颗粒在浓度为200μg/ml时对烟曲霉和黑曲霉菌株的生长抑制率为66.67-90.78%,48小时后对孔雀石绿有显著降解(>90%)。此外,纳米颗粒可防止血液凝固,还能完全溶解血凝块,表明金纳米颗粒和银金纳米颗粒在治疗凝血障碍方面具有生物医学潜力。这是首次报道利用安全芽孢杆菌菌株合成金纳米颗粒和银金纳米颗粒用于生物医学和催化应用。
