This study was aimed on the eco-friendly synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and AgNPs decorated rGO (rGO/AgNPs) nanocomposite and appraisal of their bioactivities and toxicity. As-prepared nanomaterials were established through high resolution X-ray diffraction (HR-XRD), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectroscopy, UV-Vis. spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). In this study, leaves extract, graphene oxide (GO) and rGO did not show antibacterial and anticancer activities; no significant embryo toxicity was recorded. On the other hand, AgNPs displayed good antibacterial and anticancer activities; however, higher toxic effects were observed even at the lowest test concentration (0.7 μg/ml). In case of rGO/AgNPs nanocomposite, significant antibacterial activity together with low cytotoxicity was noticed. Interestingly, the embryo toxicity of AgNPs was significantly reduced by rGO, implying the biocompatible nature of as-synthesized nanocomposite. Taken together, these results clearly suggest that rGO/AgNPs nano hybrid composite could be developed as the promising biomaterial for future biomedical applications.
本研究旨在环保合成银纳米粒子(AgNPs)、还原氧化石墨烯(rGO)和 AgNPs 修饰的 rGO(rGO/AgNPs)纳米复合材料,并评估它们的生物活性和毒性。通过高分辨率 X 射线衍射(HR-XRD)、高分辨率透射电子显微镜(HR-TEM)、X 射线光电子能谱(XPS)、拉曼光谱、紫外可见分光光度计(UV-Vis)和傅里叶变换红外光谱(FT-IR)对所制备的纳米材料进行了表征。在本研究中,叶提取物、氧化石墨烯(GO)和 rGO 没有表现出抗菌和抗癌活性;没有记录到明显的胚胎毒性。另一方面,AgNPs 表现出良好的抗菌和抗癌活性;然而,即使在最低测试浓度(0.7μg/ml)下,也观察到了更高的毒性作用。对于 rGO/AgNPs 纳米复合材料,观察到了显著的抗菌活性和低细胞毒性。有趣的是,rGO 显著降低了 AgNPs 的胚胎毒性,这表明所合成的纳米复合材料具有生物相容性。综上所述,这些结果清楚地表明,rGO/AgNPs 纳米杂化复合材料可以作为有前途的生物材料,用于未来的生物医学应用。
