Preparation and Biological Activity of Lignin–Silver Hybrid Nanoparticles
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: . Compared to unattached AgNPs, AgLigNPs required two to eight times lower silver concentrations to achieve complete inhibition. Additionally, our silver-containing nanosystems were effective against bacteria at safe concentrations in HEK-293 and HaCaT tissue cultures. Stability experiments revealed that the nanosystems tend to aggregate in media used for bacterial cell cultures but remain stable in media used for tissue cultures. In all tested media, the nanoparticles retained their integrity, and the presence of lignin facilitated the prevention of silver ions from leaching. Overall, our data demonstrate the suitability of AgLigNPs for further valorization in the biomedical sector.
