Abstract
Abstract
In the current study, SnO2 nanoparticles were fabricated using laser ablation in water and characterized using ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The XRD results showed that the fabricated nanoparticles had a tetragonal crystal structure. TEM micrographs revealed that the nanoparticles were spherical, with average sizes ranging from 10 to 50 nm, depending on the laser energy used. The band gap energy of the SnO2 nanoparticles was found to increase with decreasing particle size. The antibacterial activity of the SnO2 nanoparticles was tested against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, and the results showed that the nanoparticles were more effective against S. aureus. In addition, the anticancer activity of the SnO2 nanoparticles was tested against the lung cancer cell line A549 cells, and the findings suggest that the nanoparticles can act as an anti-proliferative agent against A549 cells. This study reveals that SnO2 nanoparticles that are synthesized by laser ablation in water could be a future strategy for other biomedical applications such as antifungal, antiviral, and immune modulators.
期刊介绍:
Plasmonics is an international forum for the publication of peer-reviewed leading-edge original articles that both advance and report our knowledge base and practice of the interactions of free-metal electrons, Plasmons.
Topics covered include notable advances in the theory, Physics, and applications of surface plasmons in metals, to the rapidly emerging areas of nanotechnology, biophotonics, sensing, biochemistry and medicine. Topics, including the theory, synthesis and optical properties of noble metal nanostructures, patterned surfaces or materials, continuous or grated surfaces, devices, or wires for their multifarious applications are particularly welcome. Typical applications might include but are not limited to, surface enhanced spectroscopic properties, such as Raman scattering or fluorescence, as well developments in techniques such as surface plasmon resonance and near-field scanning optical microscopy.
