Fungus mediated synthesis of gold nanoparticles and their conjugation with genomic DNA isolated from Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus
A Mishra, SK Tripathy, SI Yun - Process Biochemistry, 2012 - Elsevier
Biological systems employing microorganisms have been used as an alternative to
conventional chemical techniques for synthesizing gold nanoparticles. In the present study,
gold nanoparticles have been synthesized from the supernatant broth (SB) and live cell
filtrate (LCF) of the industrially important fungus Penicillium rugulosum. Additionally, potato
dextrose broth (PDB) medium which is used for the growth of the fungus has also been able
to synthesize gold nanoparticles. The size of the particles has been investigated by Bio-TEM …
