“…This is similar to results for ionic silver which strongly affects survival and reproduction (Bianchini and Wood, 2003) but not growth or molting (Naddy et al, 2007). However, in the present study, dissolved silver levels were below the detection limit (< 1 µg Ag L -1 ) indicating that observed effects were most likely caused by the used AgNP themselves, not by released ions.…”

“…The body burden at the lowest concentration causing a negative effect on reproduction and survival was 8.2 µg g wet weight -1 . The chronic NOEC for ionic silver has been reported being below 3.0 to 5.0 µg Ag L -1 (Bianchini and Wood, 2003;Naddy et al, 2007) which is clearly lower than the body burden reported in the present study. Measurements of fate inside the digestive tract and cell toxicity studies assessing the toxic mechanism of the used AgNP are required to identify the exact reason for the observed difference in toxicity.…”

“…For instance, Asharani et al [2] reported that AgNPs cause surface oxidation upon contact with a cell culture medium or proteins in the cytoplasm. Naddy et al [3] showed that the chronic exposure of Daphnia magna and Ceriodaphnia dubia to Ag resulted in restrained growth and reproduction. The toxicity effect of Ag on bacteria also appears to disrupt the denitrification process, suggesting the possibility of ecosystem-level disruption [4,5].…”

Silver particles are used in various consumer products due to their positive effects, which include sterilization and antibacterial properties. However, it has been reported that silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have strongly acute toxic effects on various cells. Therefore, the cytotoxicity of AgNPs was investigated, using Escherichia coli as a model organism, from the standpoint of three key metrics (ionic ratio, size, and agglomeration) that are the most relevant physicochemical properties. The findings indicated that cytotoxicity is depressed by the agglomeration of AgNPs. The order of toxic sensitivity was as follows: total Ag concentration > ionic ratio > size, the order of which was inversely related to the extent of agglomeration.

“…The concept of Ag either leaching or being released into water systems is of particular concern considering the many years of research showing that ionic Ag is highly toxic to various freshwater aquatic species with varying lethal concentrations depending on the species (Dethloff et al 2007;Naddy et al 2007). Green AgNPs have been synthesized using various natural products like Azadirachta indica (Tripathi et al 2009), Glycine max (Vivekanandhan et al 2009), Cinnamon zeylanicum (Sathishkumar et al 2009), and Camellia sinensis (Begum et al 2009).…”

The aim of this study was to investigate the larvicidal potential of the hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, acetone, methanol, and aqueous leaf extracts of Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn. (Nymphaeaceae) and synthesized silver nanoparticles using aqueous leaf extract against fourth instar larvae of Anopheles subpictus Grassi and Culex quinquefasciatus Say (Diptera: Culicidae). Nanoparticles are being used in many commercial applications. It was found that aqueous silver ions can be reduced by aqueous extract of plant parts to generate extremely stable silver nanoparticles in water. The results recorded from UV-vis spectrum, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Fourier transform infrared support the biosynthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles. Larvae were exposed to varying concentrations of plant extracts and synthesized silver nanoparticles for 24 h. All extracts showed moderate larvicidal effects; however, the maximum efficacy was observed in crude methanol, aqueous, and synthesized silver nanoparticles against the larvae of A. subpictus (LC(50) = 8.89, 11.82, and 0.69 ppm; LC(90) = 28.65, 36.06, and 2.15 ppm) and against the larvae of C. quinquefasciatus (LC(50) = 9.51, 13.65, and 1.10 ppm; LC(90) = 28.13, 35.83, and 3.59 ppm), respectively. These results suggest that the leaf methanol, aqueous extracts of N. nucifera, and green synthesis of silver nanoparticles have the potential to be used as an ideal eco-friendly approach for the control of the A. subpictus and C. quinquefasciatus. This is the first report on the mosquito larvicidal activity of the plant extracts and synthesized nanoparticles.
