Description
본 발명은 토마토 추출물을 이용한 항균성 은 나노입자, 이의 제조방법 및 상기 항균성 은 나노입자의 용도에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to an antimicrobial silver nanoparticle using a tomato extract, a method for preparing the same, and a use of the antimicrobial silver nanoparticle.
나노입자의 합성은 오랫동안 연구되고 있으며, 나노의학 분야를 발전시키기 위해 나노입자를 적용하기 위한 다양한 연구가 진행 중에 있다. 나노입자는 입자의 금속 유형, 크기 및 모양에 따라 다양한 기능을 가지며, 특히 은 나노입자는 항균, 항진균, 항 바이러스 및 항암 활성을 포함하는 살균(biocidal) 활성이 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 이유로 은 나노입자는 잠재적으로 치료용 생체분자로의 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으며 경제적, 환경적인 편익을 고려하는 경향이 더욱 뚜렷해 짐에 따라 유해 화학물질 및 오염물질을 포함하지 않는 효율적인 합성방법을 개발하고자 하는 연구가 증가하고 있다. 현재 가장 널리 사용되는 은 나노입자의 제조는 나트륨 보로하이드라이드(NaBH4)를 사용하는 화학 합성방법으로, 나트륨 보로 하이드라이드는 질산은 수용액에서 Ag + 이온을 Ag0로 환원시킨다.Synthesis of nanoparticles has been studied for a long time, and various studies are underway to apply nanoparticles to advance the field of nanomedicine. Nanoparticles have various functions depending on the metal type, size, and shape of the particles. In particular, silver nanoparticles are known to have biocidal activities including antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral and anticancer activities. For this reason, research into potential therapeutic biomolecules for silver nanoparticles is being actively conducted, and as the tendency to consider economic and environmental benefits becomes more pronounced, an efficient synthesis method that does not contain harmful chemicals and pollutants has been developed. There is an increasing number of studies to be done. Currently, the most widely used preparation of silver nanoparticles is a chemical synthesis method using sodium borohydride (NaBH4), and sodium borohydride reduces Ag + ions to Ag 0 in an aqueous silver nitrate solution.
그러나 이러한 방법은 합성과정에서 유해한 시약을 사용해야 하고 환경오염의 문제가 발생하기 때문에 안전하지 못한 문제점이 있다. 더욱이, 화학적 합성에 의해 생성된 은 나노입자는 생체 적합성이 낮고 독성이 매우 높아 나노의학 응용 분야에 적합하지 않다는 문제점이 있다.However, this method has a problem that is not safe because it requires the use of harmful reagents in the synthesis process and a problem of environmental pollution occurs. Moreover, there is a problem in that the silver nanoparticles produced by chemical synthesis have low biocompatibility and very high toxicity, and thus are not suitable for nanomedical applications.
이에 최근에는 천연식물을 은 나노입자의 제조에 사용하고자 하는 노력이 진행되고 있는데, 이는 식물 추출물에는 다당류와 식물성 화학물질이 포함되어 있으며, 다당류의 하이드록시 기(Hydroxyl groups) 및 헤미아세탈 환원 말단(hemiacetal reducing ends)은 환원제 및 캡핑제로서 나노입자 합성에 중요한 역할을 할 수 있으며, 식물화학 물질은 Ag+의 감소와 Ag0의 안정성에 기여할 수 있기 때문이다. 식물 추출물을 은 나노입자의 개발에 활용한 종래 기술로는 치자 종자 추출물을 이용한 은 나노입자 제조방법이 개발된 바 있고(대한민국 등록특허 10-2091166), 닥풀 추출물을 포함하는 은 나노입자 분산제의 기술이 개발된 바 있다(대한민국 공개특허 10-2019-0019657).In recent years, efforts have been made to use natural plants for the production of silver nanoparticles, which include polysaccharides and phytochemicals in plant extracts, and hydroxy groups of polysaccharides and hemiacetal reducing ends ( Hemiacetal reducing ends) can play an important role in the synthesis of nanoparticles as a reducing agent and capping agent, and phytochemicals can contribute to the reduction of Ag + and the stability of Ag 0. As a conventional technique using plant extracts for the development of silver nanoparticles, a method for producing silver nanoparticles using gardenia seed extract has been developed (Korean Patent Registration No. 10-2091166), and a technology of a silver nanoparticle dispersant including a Duckweed extract. This has been developed (Republic of Korea Patent Publication 10-2019-0019657).
그러나 아직까지 천연식물을 은 나노입자의 제조에 사용하려는 연구가 미비한 실정이며, 천연식물 대상으로 토마토를 사용한 예가 없다.However, studies to use natural plants for the production of silver nanoparticles are still insufficient, and there is no example of using tomatoes as natural plants.

구체적으로 본 발명은 천연의 소재인 토마토를 은 나노입자의 제조에 사용할 수 있음을 규명함에 따라, 상온에서 토마토 추출물을 질산은 용액에 첨가하고 교반하는 단계를 포함하는, 토마토 추출물을 이용한 항균성 은 나노입자의 제조방법을 제공함에 특징이 있다.Specifically, as the present invention found out that tomatoes, which are natural materials, can be used for the production of silver nanoparticles, antimicrobial silver nanoparticles using tomato extract comprising the step of adding and stirring a tomato extract to a silver nitrate solution at room temperature. It is characterized by providing a manufacturing method of.
보통 항균물질로서의 사용을 위한 은 나노입자의 종래합성은, 나노 크기의 입자로 성장하는 새로운 핵에 원자를 자기 조립함으로써 화학적 및 생물학적 방법을 사용하여 합성할 수 있고, 이때 환원제와 캡핑제가 사용되는데, 환원제로는 Sodium borohydride(NaBH4), sodium citrate, ascorbate, elemental hydrogen, Tollen’s reagent. N, N-dimethyl formamide(DMF) 및 poly (ethylene glycol) block copolymer와 같은 다양한 유기 및 무기 환원제가 은 이온(Ag+) 수용액 또는 비수용액의 환원을 위해 사용된다. 또한 캡핑제는 나노 입자의 크기 안정화를 위해 사용된다. 그러나 이러한 방법의 가장 큰 장점 중 하나는 짧은 시간 내에 다량의 나노 입자를 합성할 수 있다는 점이다. 이러한 합성 과정에 사용된 환원제 및 캡핑제와 같은 화학 물질은 독성물질이며 친환경적이지 않은 부산물을 발생시킨다는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 환경 친화적인 공정을 통한 은 나노입자의 개발이 시급한 실정이었다.Conventional synthesis of silver nanoparticles for use as antimicrobial substances can be synthesized using chemical and biological methods by self-assembling atoms in a new nucleus that grows into nano-sized particles. As a reducing agent, sodium borohydride (NaBH 4 ), sodium citrate, ascorbate, elemental hydrogen, Tollen's reagent. Various organic and inorganic reducing agents such as N, N-dimethyl formamide (DMF) and poly (ethylene glycol) block copolymer are used for the reduction of silver ion (Ag+) aqueous or non-aqueous solutions. In addition, the capping agent is used to stabilize the size of the nanoparticles. However, one of the biggest advantages of this method is that a large amount of nanoparticles can be synthesized within a short time. Chemical substances such as reducing agents and capping agents used in the synthesis process are toxic and have a problem in that they generate byproducts that are not environmentally friendly. Therefore, it was urgent to develop silver nanoparticles through environmentally friendly processes.
이러한 점에서 본 발명은 항균성 은 나노입자의 친환경적 제조가 가능한 천연 식물소재를 연구하던 중, 토마토 추출물을 사용할 경우, 안정적이면서 유해 부산물의 생산없이 항균성이 우수한 은 나노입자의 제조가 가능함을 확인하였고, 특히 본 발명에서는 토마토 추출물이 항균성 은 나노입자의 합성에서 환원제(reductant agent) 및 캡핑제(capping agent)로서의 역할을 할 수 있음을 확인하였다.In this respect, the present invention confirmed that while studying a natural plant material capable of eco-friendly production of antimicrobial silver nanoparticles, when using tomato extract, it was possible to manufacture silver nanoparticles with excellent antibacterial properties while being stable and without the production of harmful by-products. In particular, in the present invention, it was confirmed that the tomato extract can serve as a reductant agent and a capping agent in the synthesis of antimicrobial silver nanoparticles.
하기에서는 본 발명에서 제공하는 토마토 추출물을 이용한 항균성 은 나노입자의 제조과정에 대해 상세하게 설명한다.Hereinafter, the preparation process of the antimicrobial silver nanoparticles using the tomato extract provided by the present invention will be described in detail.
먼저 깨끗한 토마토를 선별한 후, 토마토의 표면을 탈이온수로 세척하고 껍질을 제거한다. 껍질이 제거된 토마토의 열매 부위(과육)를 균질화시켜 토마토 즙을 수득한다. 이때 상기 껍질이 제거된 토마토의 열매 부위는 잘게 절단한 형태로 즙을 만드는데 사용할 수 있다. 또한 상기 균질화는 블렌더 기기 등을 통해 착즙할 수 있다.First, after selecting a clean tomato, the surface of the tomato is washed with deionized water and the skin is removed. The tomato juice is obtained by homogenizing the fruit part (pulp) of the tomato from which the skin has been removed. At this time, the fruit portion of the tomato from which the skin has been removed may be used to make juice in a finely cut form. In addition, the homogenization can be juiced through a blender device or the like.
토마토 즙을 얻으면, 상기 즙을 원심분리하여 상층액을 수득함으로써 분순물을 제거하며, 수득한 상층액은 여과지를 통해 여과시켜 은 나노입자의 제조에 사용할 토마토 추출물을 수득한다. When the tomato juice is obtained, impurities are removed by centrifuging the juice to obtain a supernatant, and the obtained supernatant is filtered through a filter paper to obtain a tomato extract to be used in the manufacture of silver nanoparticles.
상기와 같이 토마토 추출물의 준비가 완료되면, 상기 토마토 추출물을 질산은 용액에 적가하고 천천히 교반하는 단계를 수행하여 본 발명의 항균성 은 나노입자를 제조한다.When the preparation of the tomato extract is completed as described above, the tomato extract is added dropwise to the silver nitrate solution and slowly stirred to prepare the antimicrobial silver nanoparticles of the present invention.
이때 상기 질산은(AgNO3) 용액은 질산은이 3mM ~ 7mM의 농도로 포함된 용액을 사용할 수 있다. 3mM 농도 미만의 용액을 사용하게 되면 은 나노입자가 제대로 형성되지 못하는 문제점이 생기며, 반면 7mM 농도를 초과하는 용액을 사용하게 되면 불순물이 생성되는 문제점이 발생한다. 따라서 상기 농도 범위의 질산은 용액을 사용하는 것이 바람직하며, 본 발명의 일실시예에서는 5mM 농도의 질산은 용액을 사용하였다.In this case, the silver nitrate (AgNO 3 ) solution may be a solution containing silver nitrate in a concentration of 3 mM to 7 mM. If a solution of less than 3mM concentration is used, there is a problem that silver nanoparticles are not formed properly, whereas if a solution exceeding 7mM concentration is used, impurities are generated. Therefore, it is preferable to use a silver nitrate solution in the above concentration range, and in one embodiment of the present invention, a silver nitrate solution having a concentration of 5 mM was used.
또한, 상기 토마토 추출물과 질산은 용액의 혼합반응은 토마토 추출물 대 질산은 용액의 부피비가 1:2~1:6이 되도록 사용할 수 있다. 이 또한 상기 부피비의 범위를 벗어날 경우, 본 발명에 따른 항균성 은 나노입자가 제조되지 않거나, 다른 불순물이 형성되는 문제점이 발생한다. 본 발명의 일실시예에서는 1:4의 부피비로 반응시켰다.In addition, the mixed reaction of the tomato extract and the silver nitrate solution may be used so that the volume ratio of the tomato extract to the silver nitrate solution is 1:2 to 1:6. In addition, when the volume ratio is out of the range, there is a problem that the antimicrobial silver nanoparticles according to the present invention are not prepared or other impurities are formed. In an example of the present invention, the reaction was performed in a volume ratio of 1:4.
상기 토마토 추출물의 질산은 용액으로의 적가에 따른 혼합 및 교반에 의한 질산은 생성반응은 상온에서 15~20 분 동안 진행되며 상기 교반은 온화한 교반조건인 120~150rpm의 속도에서 수행할 수 있다. 이때, 상기 질산은 용액에 토마토 추출물을 첨가하는 과정에서 토마토 추출물의 처리에 의해 Ag+ 이온이 Ag0 이온으로 환원된다. The reaction to produce silver nitrate by mixing and stirring according to the dropwise addition of the tomato extract to the silver nitrate solution proceeds for 15 to 20 minutes at room temperature, and the stirring may be performed at a speed of 120 to 150 rpm, which is a mild stirring condition. At this time, in the process of adding the tomato extract to the silver nitrate solution, Ag + ions are reduced to Ag 0 ions by treatment of the tomato extract.
토마토 추출물 및 질산은 용액과의 반응으로 혼합용액 내에 생성된 은 나노입자는 상기 반응이 완료된 혼합용액을 원심분리하여 침전된 펠렛으로 수득할 수 있고, 상기 펠렛은 탈이온수로 여러 차례 세척을 수행함으로써 본 발명의 항균성 은 나노입자를 수득할 수 있다.The silver nanoparticles generated in the mixed solution by the reaction of the tomato extract and the silver nitrate solution can be obtained as a precipitated pellet by centrifuging the mixed solution, and the pellet is washed several times with deionized water. The antimicrobial silver nanoparticles of the invention can be obtained.
또한 본 발명에서 사용할 수 있는 토마토의 품종으로는 이에 제한되는지 않으나, 에어룸 토마토(Heirloom Tomatoes), 비프스테이크 토마토(Beefsteak Tomatoes), 플럼 토마토(Plum Tomatoes), 노란 토마토(Yellow Tomatoes), 체리 토마토(Cherry Tomatoes), 그린 토마토(Green Tomatoes), 캄파리 토마토(Campari Tomatoes), 방울 토마토(Pear Tomatoes), 브랜드와인 토마토(Brandywine Tomatoes) 또는 체로키퍼플 토마토(Cherokee Purple Tomatoes)를 사용할 수 있다.In addition, the varieties of tomatoes that can be used in the present invention are not limited thereto, but Heirloom Tomatoes, Beefsteak Tomatoes, Plum Tomatoes, Yellow Tomatoes, and Cherry Tomatoes ( Cherry Tomatoes, Green Tomatoes, Campari Tomatoes, Pear Tomatoes, Brandywine Tomatoes or Cherokee Purple Tomatoes.
본 발명의 일실시예에서는, UV-Vis 분광 광도계, 주사 전자현미경(SEM), 동적 광산란(Dynamic light scattering (DLS)) 및 푸리에 변환-적외선 분광법(FT-IR)을 이용하여 제조된 은 나노입자의 특성을 분석하였다.In an embodiment of the present invention, silver nanoparticles prepared using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer, a scanning electron microscope (SEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) The characteristics of were analyzed.
