Green Synthesis of Selenium Nanoparticles in the Presence of Mycobacterium Bovis Cell Lysate: a Novel Fabrication Approach and its Immune-Modulatory Effects
Abstract:Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) is a slow-growing bacteria that can intracellularly reduce selenium ions to elemental selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs). We used bacterial lysates along with vitamin C to help the synthesis of SeNPs coated with M. bovis Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) crude hydrophobic materials. However, the large-scale fabrication, separation, extraction, and purification of intercellular SeNPs which are prepared by using M. bovis, have many complexities. So, we developed a simple method for prepara… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
