Evaluation of cytotoxic potential of silver nanoparticles biosynthesized using essential oils of Jasminum sambac against breast cancer and bacterial cells

Essential oils (EOs) which cover about 91% whole biomolecules formulated from Jasminum sambac leaves based on Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry were employed to identify structures. EOs were observed as good agents in the preparation of Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) through the proposed mechanism that was attempted to interpret the pathway of the bio-preparation process. The characterization of EOs-AgNPs carried via ultraviolet-visible to reveal surface plasmon resonance at 420 nm, Fourier transform infrared to observe functional groups EOs compared to EOs-AgNPs. X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed a broad chart owing to the small size of AgNPs in average size less than 10 nm calculated relying on image J software, spherical AgNPs with a small dispersive size observed by transmission electron microscopy. Quasi near spherical surface morphology of EOs-AgNPs had detected by field emission scanning electron microscope. EOs-AgNPs were assessed for their antibacterial potential against both Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria as suppressing bacterial agents. EOs-AgNPs had their anti-breast cancer MCF-7 cell line ability investigated by DNA fragmentation; cycle flow cytometry (apoptosis) at half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) was determined at 260 mu g/mL which has been stated by cytotoxicity (MTT) assay. EOs-AgNPs have antibacterial and anticancer therapeutic potential, and it is safe, inexpensive, and scalable in the nanoscale range.
