Synthesis and antimicrobial effects of colloidal silver nanoparticles in chitosan byγ-irradiation

Abstract: Radiation-induced synthesis of colloidal silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) using chitosan (CTS) as a stabiliser and free radical scavenger is feasible and satisfiable to green method. The conversion dose (Ag þ into Ag 0) was determined by UV-Vis spectroscopy and Ag-NPs size was characterised by transmission electron microscopy. The average diameter of Ag-NPs was smaller than 10 nm with narrow size distribution and the colloidal Ag-NPs have good stability for a long time of storage. The effect of several parameters… Show more

“…It is clear that slightly basic medium (pH 7. solution before irradiation significantly affected the size of AuNPs. The same results of the pH effect were also reported by Phu et al on radiolytic synthesis of AgNPs stabilized by chitosan [37]. Particularly, the sizes of AgNPs were of 15.0 and 7.3 nm for pH 3 and 6, respectively.…”

“…The reason may be due to the cumbersomeness of high WSC Mw, which could antiagglomerate Au clusters to prevent forming big AuNPs better than low WSC Mw. Phu et al [13] obtained similar results in the study of the effect of chitosan Mw on radiation synthesis of silver nanoparticles.…”

“…A number of methods have been reported for the synthesis of AuNPs, such as chemical [3,[5][6][7], photochemical [8], sonochemical [9] and radiolytic [10][11][12] reduction. In these methods, ionizing radiation has been considered as an effective method due to several advantages, as described in our previous papers [12,13]; especially, mass production can be carried out and satisfies the requirements of clean production.…”

“…In addition, 2 Journal of Nanomaterials silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were extensively studied and widely used for a long time due to their unique properties such as bacterial and fungal inhibition and odor removal at low concentration and safe to human and the environment. The antifungal effect of AgNPs stabilized in chitosan has been studied on pathogen fungi such as Colletotrichum [8] and Corticium salmonicolor [9]. Moreover, irradiation with -rays using a Co-60 source was considered as an effective method for the synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles [10].…”
