Abstract
Silver nanoparticles were obtained in the presence of 2-propanol under both in situ and ex situ conditions. It was established that the hydrodynamic radius and polydispersity of the particles increase with rising pH (6.0–11.0) due to the accelerated reduction of Ag+ ions. Variation of the chitosan molecular-weight parameters and the chitosan/Ag+ molar ratio (5–30) enabled controlled formation of stabilized nanoparticles ranging from 20 to 140 nm. The chitosan–silver nanoparticle dispersions in 0.2–0.5% aqueous acetic solutions demonstrated pronounced fungicidal activity against Fusarium solani 169, Fusarium oxysporum 280, and Verticillium dahliae 57, producing sterile zones of 31–34 mm.
期刊介绍:
Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes original articles on biochemistry and microbiology that have or may have practical applications. The studies include: enzymes and mechanisms of enzymatic reactions, biosynthesis of low and high molecular physiologically active compounds; the studies of their structure and properties; biogenesis and pathways of their regulation; metabolism of producers of biologically active compounds, biocatalysis in organic synthesis, applied genetics of microorganisms, applied enzymology; protein and metabolic engineering, biochemical bases of phytoimmunity, applied aspects of biochemical and immunochemical analysis; biodegradation of xenobiotics; biosensors; biomedical research (without clinical studies). Along with experimental works, the journal publishes descriptions of novel research techniques and reviews on selected topics.
