Abstract
This research scintillates the synthesis of silver nanoparticles from chitosan (C-AgNps) from squid pens as a reducing and stabilizing agent and assesses its antioxidant, antibacterial, and anticancer potentials. The nanoparticles were 240 to 290 nm with excellent stability of +98.2 mV. The C-AgNps possessed an excellent 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging activity with an IC50 of 6.65 µg/mL. The C-AgNps showed exceptional antibacterial properties against S. aureus, B. subtilis, P. aeruginosa, and E. coli using a good diffusion assay. The C-AgNps also showed outstanding anticancer properties against A375 human skin malignant melanoma. Thus, the C-AgNps could be used as antimicrobial and anticancer agents for novel therapeutics after lead optimization and in-vivo clinical trials.
期刊介绍:
RASĀYAN Journal of Chemistry [RJC] signifies a confluence of diverse streams of chemistry to stir up the cerebral powers of its contributors and readers. By introducing the journal by this name, we humbly intent to provide an open platform to all researchers, academicians and readers to showcase their ideas and research findings among the people of their own fraternity and to share their vast repository of knowledge and information. The journal seeks to embody the spirit of enquiry and innovation to augment the richness of existing chemistry literature and theories. We also aim towards making this journal an unparalleled reservoir of information and in process aspire to inculcate and expand the research aptitude.
