Novel Gold Nanoparticles Reduced by Sargassum glaucescens: Preparation, Characterization and Anticancer Activity

Abstract: Abstract:The current study investigated the anticancer properties of gold nanoparticles (SG-stabilized AuNPs) synthesized using water extracts of the brown seaweed Sargassum glaucescens (SG). SG-stabilized AuNPs were characterized by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, transmission and scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry. The SG-stabilized AuNPs were stable and small at 3.65˘1.69 nm in size. The in vitro anticancer effect of SG-stabilized AuNPs was determined on ce… Show more

“…The phase purity and particle size of Pd@W. tea NPs were determined using the X-ray diffractometer (XRD-6000; Shimadzu) at 40 kV with nickel-filtered Cu (λ=1.542 Å) in the range of 10° to 80°. 21 Morphological analysis of Pd@W.tea NPs was conducted by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM; HITACHI H-7650, Tokyo, Japan) at voltage 120 kV. The sample suspension was dropcasted on a carbon-coated copper grid and allowed to air-dry at room temperature overnight.…”

“…21 In brief, cells treated with 0.006 µM Pd@W. tea NPs for 12, 24, or 48 h were harvested, washed with PBS twice, resuspended in binding buffer, and incubated with Annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide solutions at room temperature in the dark for 30 min. Apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry using FACS Calibur (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) with 15,000 ungated cells.…”
