Ethanol and NaCl-Induced Gold Nanoparticle Aggregation Toxicity Toward DNA Investigated with a DNA/GCE Biosensor
SENSORS(2023)
摘要
Engineered nanomaterials are becoming increasingly common in commercial and consumer products and pose a serious toxicological threat. Exposure of human organisms to nanomaterials can occur by inhalation, oral intake, or dermal transport. Together with the consumption of alcohol in the physiological environment of the body containing NaCl, this has raised concerns about the potentially harmful effects of ingested nanomaterials on human health. Although gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) exhibit great potential for various biomedical applications, there is some inconsistency in the case of the unambiguous genotoxicity of AuNPs due to differences in their shape, size, solubility, and exposure time. A DNA/GCE (DNA/glassy carbon electrode) biosensor was used to study ethanol (EtOH) and NaCl-induced gold nanoparticle aggregation genotoxicity under UV light in this study. The genotoxic effect of dispersed and aggregated negatively charged gold nanoparticles AuNP1 (8 nm) and AuNP2 (30 nm) toward salmon sperm double-stranded dsDNA was monitored by cyclic and square-wave voltammetry (CV, SWV). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used for a surface study of the biosensor. The aggregation of AuNPs was monitored by UV-vis spectroscopy. AuNP1 aggregates formed by 30% v/v EtOH and 0.15 mol·L−1 NaCl caused the greatest damage to the biosensor DNA layer.
