Facile green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using Mangifera indica seed aqueous extract and its antimicrobial, antioxidant and cytotoxic potential (3-in-1 system)

Abstract

A novel approach for the utilisation of fruit waste is attempted in the present investigation. Mangifera indica seed aqueous extract was utilised for green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The phytoconstituents in the seed acted as reducing and stabilising agent for AgNP formation. UV-Vis, Zeta potential, FT-IR, XRD, TEM, SAED, EDX analysis were used to characterise the green synthesised AgNPs. UV-vis spectra showed characteristic spectra at 450 nm; XRD and SAED confirmed the crystalline nature while TEM revealed the shape to be round and average size was 26.85 nm. FT-IR revealed functional groups like alcohol or phenols, carboxylic acids, ketones, amines, aromatic amines, aliphatic amines, alkyl halides and alkynes which were responsible for AgNP formation. The nanoparticles showed more antibacterial activity than antifungal activity and antibacterial activity towards Gram-negative bacteria was more than Gram-positive bacteria. Dose dependent antioxidant activity (DPPH, SO and ABTS) and dose dependent cytotoxic effect against HeLa, MCF-7 and normal fibroblast cell lines was envisaged. The green synthesised AgNPs exhibited three different bioactivities (3-in-1 system) i.e. dose dependent antimicrobial, antioxidant and cytotoxic activity. Fruit waste can be successfully utilised for silver nanoparticles formation which can be therapeutically useful and effective. HIGHLIGHTS Silver nanoparticles were synthesised from M. indica fruit waste i.e. seed Characterisation by spectroscopic techniques: UV-Vis, Zeta, FTIR, XRD, SAED, EDX and TEM analysis. Silver nanoparticles were 26.85 nm in size and round in shape Antimicrobial activity against 14 microorganisms Antioxidant activity in terms of DPPH, SO and ABTS Cytotoxic activity against HeLa, MCF-7 and Fibroblast normal cell lines ARTICLE HISTORY

Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Thespesia populnea Bark Extract for Efficient Removal of Methylene Blue (MB) Degradation via Photocatalysis with Antimicrobial Activity and for Anticancer Activity

“…e as-prepared Ag-NPs have a face-centred cubic structure. At the same time, additional peaks connected with standard Ag peaks can be attributed to the presence of phytochemicals extracted from espesia populnea, which might get capped on the surface of NPs [23,24]. e width of the (111) Bragg's reflection was used to calculate the average size of the fabricated Ag-NPs by using the Debye-Scherer equation (2).…”

Green Synthesis of Metal and Metal Oxide Nanoparticles Using Different Plants’ Parts for Antimicrobial Activity and Anticancer Activity: A Review Article

“…Morinda citrifolia was utilized to prepare spherical silver nanoparticles with an average size of 3 nm and used to evaluate bacterial activity toward S. aureus (ZOI = 9.81 mm) and E. coli (ZOI = 10.63 mm) [245]. In another work, round silver nanoparticles were derived from Mangifera indica aqueous seed extract and tested against B. cereus (ATCC11778), K. pneumonia (NMCIM2719), S. aureus (ATCC29737), P. aeruginosa (ATCC9027), C. rubrum (ATCC14898), E. coli (NCIM2931), S. typhimurium (ATCC23564), C. neoformans (ATCC34664), C. albicans (ATCC2091), and C. glabrata (NCIM3438) [246]. The formation of spherical nanoparticles with an average of 22 nm utilizing Annona squamosa L. was reported by Jose, Vimala, et al The biosynthesized silver nanoparticles showed excellent catalytic activity against degradation of Coomassie brilliant blue dye [247].…”
