Optimization of Reaction Parameters for Silver Nanoparticles Synthesis from Fusarium Oxysporum and Determination of Silver Nanoparticles Concentration

Biosynthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles using Agrocybe cylindracea, and their antibacterial activity.

“…2D). which agree with Khan and Jameel (2016) who found that 40 °C is the optimum temperature for synthesis of AgNPs.…”

A review on mycogenic metallic nanoparticles and their potential role as antioxidant, antibiofilm and quorum quenching agents

“…Numerous species of Fusarium like Fusarium oxysporum , Fusarium acuminatum , Fusarium semitectum , Fusarium culmorum , Fusarium solani etc. have been explored for the biosynthesis of metallic nanoparticles such as silver, platinum, gold, silica and palladium etc [ [31] , [32] , [33] , [34] , [35] ]. Different Fusarium sp.…”

“…Thus, it is desirable to obtain nanoparticles having uniform size and morphology that can be carried out by adjusting the parameters for synthesis and cultivation. Studies have also shown that changes in pH, temperature, culture medium, metal precursor concentration, and the amount of biomass also resulted in nanoparticles with variable physicochemical properties [ 33 , 73 ]. Mycosynthesis is also directly influenced by various conditions, like pH, temperature, incubation time, fungal species biomass concentration and nature of metal species and their colloidal interaction conditions, that also control the localization, size, shape and dispersity of the nanoparticles formed.…”

“…The optimal concentration of metal ions for the improved synthesis of AgNPs utilizing the fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum was examined in research employing varying amount of silver ions ranging from 0.2 to 2 mM. The results revealed that metal ion concentration of 2 mM was optimum for the considerable silver nanoparticles formation by S. sclerotiorum [ 33 ]. Kumari and colleagues employed Trichoderma viride fungus supernatant to make AuNPs by using two distinct concentrations of metal precursors (250 and 500 mg-L).…”

“…For the mycosynthesis of nanoparticles, a culture media having substrates specific for enzymes involved in the reduction process can enhance their secretion thus encouraging the process of metal ion reduction and subsequent nanoparticles formation [ 101 ]. For the synthesis of AgNPs, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum was grown in various broths, and the results demonstrated that improved production of AgNPs was achieved by using potato dextrose medium [ 33 ].…”
