Capping drives the behavior, dissolution and (eco)toxicity of silver nanoparticles towards microorganisms and mammalian cells

Surface coating plays a fundamental role in driving silver nanoparticle (AgNP) toxicity towards cells, but no clarity exists on the mechanism behind it. AgNPs with two different capping agents, citrate and l -cysteine (citLcys) and sodium-3-mercapto-1-propanesulfonate (3MPS), developed as sensors fo...

Zusammenfassung:Surface coating plays a fundamental role in driving silver nanoparticle (AgNP) toxicity towards cells, but no clarity exists on the mechanism behind it. AgNPs with two different capping agents, citrate and l -cysteine (citLcys) and sodium-3-mercapto-1-propanesulfonate (3MPS), developed as sensors for metal ions in water ( e.g. , Hg( ii ) and Ni( ii )), were investigated in terms of (eco)toxicity towards bacteria ( Escherichia coli ), microalgae ( Raphidocelis subcapitata and Phaeodactylum tricornutum ) and mammalian cells (HeLa and L929). After 72 h of incubation, Ag ion dissolution in algal media was negligible (
