Abstract

This study was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of silver nanoparticles anticancer activity which produced by T.asahii and characterization of the synthesized silver nanoparticles by UV- spectroscopy and scanning electron microscope. the resultes revealed the ability of T. asahii to produced silver nanoparticles. Within 2-4 hours, the reaction started, and coloration changed to a yellowish brown,also T. asahii was observed to produce well-dispersed, homogenous AgNPs with a variety of morphologies, the majority of which were spherical. A nanoparticle's average diameter was 43.17, and the size range of AgNPs was between ( 15.63-75.92 nm). The weight percentage of elemental constituents for AgNPs was 71.7, T. asahii average size of the nanoparticles generated from T. asahii was discovered to be 27nm . The resulting nanoparticles FTIR spectra reveal distanced twelve absorption bands ranging between 3453.99 to 461.79 cm-1, indicating the presence of twelve active functional groups. The results showed a significant inhibition of MCF-7 proliferation after 72 hrs, Dose and time depended cytotoxic cell was observed in AgNPs in the range of 6.25 -100 µg/ml concentration. AgNPs showed 100.0% of the cytotoxicity at the highest concentration (100 µg/ml) after 72 hrs. exposure while the lowest cytotoxicity showed at concentration 6.25µg/ml and 12.5µg/ml which were 72.2% and 73.4% respectively From the assay, the determined IC50 values for AgNPs were 72.2% .
