Phytochelatins, the enzymatic products of phytochelatin synthase, play a principal role in protecting the plants from heavy metal and metalloid toxicity due to their ability to scavenge metal ions. In the present study, we investigated the capacity of soluble intracellular extracts from E. coli cells expressing R. tropici phytochelatin synthase to synthesize gold nanoparticle. We discovered that the reaction mediated by soluble extracts from the recombinant E. coli cells had a higher yield of gold nanoparticles, compared to that from the control cells. The compositional and morphological properties of the gold nanoparticles synthesized by the intracellular extracts from recombinant cells and control cells were similar. In addition, this extracellular nanoparticle synthesis method produced purer gold nanoparticles, avoiding the isolation of nanoparticles from cellular debris when whole cells are used to synthesize nanoparticles. Our results suggested that phytochelatins can improve the efficiency of gold nanoparticle synthesis mediated by bacterial soluble intracellular extracts, and the potential of extracellular nanoparticle synthesis platform for the production of nanoparticles in large quantity and pure form is worth further investigation.

Abstract Silver/polyaniline (Ag/PANI) composites were prepared by an in-situ synthesis method. Interestingly, the permittivity changed from positive to negative along with the formation of percolation network. The plasma oscillations of free electrons from the network made a dominant effect on the negative permittivity behavior. Further investigation based on equivalent circuit analysis revealed that the composites with negative permittivity presented inductive character. The epsilon-negative composites can be applied to electromagnetic shielding, absorbing and attenuation.
