生物纳米技术已成为生产增值纳米材料(NMs)的有效且具有竞争力的方法。这篇综述文章收集了从文献中收集的关于硫基硫属化物纳米粒子(S-NP)的生物合成的知识,如CdS,ZnS和PbSNPs,利用各种生物资源,即细菌,真菌包括酵母,藻类,植物提取物,单一生物分子,和病毒。此外,这项工作揭示了假设的机械方面,并讨论了改变实验参数的影响,例如采用的生物实体,时间,pH值,和生物量浓度,在获得的S-NP上,因此,他们的财产。此外,描述了这些NMs的各种生物应用。最后,总结了整个过程的关键要素,并提供了一些提示,以克服生物源S-NP的改进和可扩展生产所遇到的瓶颈。
Bio-nanotechnology has emerged as an efficient and competitive methodology for the production of added-value nanomaterials (NMs). This review article gathers knowledge gleaned from the literature regarding the biosynthesis of sulfur-based chalcogenide nanoparticles (S-NPs), such as CdS, ZnS and PbS NPs, using various biological resources, namely bacteria, fungi including yeast, algae, plant extracts, single biomolecules, and viruses. In addition, this work sheds light onto the hypothetical mechanistic aspects, and discusses the impact of varying the experimental parameters, such as the employed bio-entity, time, pH, and biomass concentration, on the obtained S-NPs and, consequently, on their properties. Furthermore, various bio-applications of these NMs are described. Finally, key elements regarding the whole process are summed up and some hints are provided to overcome encountered bottlenecks towards the improved and scalable production of biogenic S-NPs.
