Investigation of Protein Corona Formed around Biologically Produced Gold Nanoparticles.

ABSTRACT: Although there are several research articles on the detection and characterization of protein corona on the surface of various nanoparticles, there are no detailed studies on the formation, detection, and characterization of protein corona on the surface of biologically produced gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). AuNPs were prepared from Fusarium oxysporum at two different temperatures and characterized by spectrophotometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The zeta potential of AuNPs was determined using a Zetasizer. AuNPs were incubated with 3 different concentrations of mouse plasma, and the hard protein corona was detected first by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophor
