Overview

The research reveals anti-cancer and antibacterial properties of silver–selenium nanoparticles, suggesting potential therapeutic uses.

Key Points

  • Ag–Se NPs demonstrated significant antibacterial activity against multiple pathogens, including E. coli and S. aureus.
  • The nanoparticles showed promising anti-cancer effects, with low IC 50 values of 52.5 and 62.94 μg·mL −1 against prostate and ovarian cancer cells.
  • Antioxidant assays indicated that Ag–Se NPs surpassed ascorbic acid, showcasing strong antioxidant potential.
  • The study also highlighted the reduction of virulence gene expression in bacteria, emphasizing the therapeutic prospects of Ag–Se NPs.
