본 연구에서는 나노 콜로이드 실리카에 은을 코팅하기 위하여 직접 은을 코팅하는 방법과 실리카입자 표면개질 후 은을 코팅하는 방법 등의 2가지 방법이 시도되었다. 실리카에 대한 은의 질량비율과 환원제 주입량 등이 은의 코팅에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 콜로이드 실리카에 직접 은을 코팅한 경우보다 MPTS (3-Mercaptopropyl trimethoxysilane)와 APTS (3-Aminopropyl trimethoxysilane)로 표면개질한 후 은을 코팅한 경우가 높은 은(Ag) 코팅율과 우수한 항균효과를 나타내는 것이 관찰되었다.

The present study addressed the efficacy of nanosized silica-silver for controlling plant pathogenic microorganisms. The nanosized silica-silver consisted of nano-silver combined with silica molecules and water soluble polymer, prepared by exposing a solution including silver salt, silicate and water soluble polymer to radioactive rays. The nanosized silica-silver showed antifungal activity against the tested phytopathogenic fungi at 3.0 ppm with varied degrees. In contrast, a number of beneficial bacteria or plant pathogenic bacteria were not significantly affected at 10 ppm level but completely inhibited by 100 ppm of nanosized silicasilver. Among the tested plant pathogenic fungi, the new product effectively controlled powdery mildews of pumpkin at 0.3 ppm in both field and greenhouse tests. The pathogens disappeared from the infected leaves 3 days after spray and the plants remained healthy thereafter. Our results suggested that the product developed in this study was effective in controlling various plant fungal diseases.

The present study described an antimicrobial spray composition comprising nanosized silica-silver particles, in which nano-silver is bound to silica molecules and a water-soluble polymer, the nanosized silica-silver particles prepared by irradiating a solution comprising a silver salt, silicate and the water-soluble polymer with radiation rays. According to a surfactant addition, the compositions were not turbid and were colorless. Also samples (cotton fabrics and wallpaper) were treated with the compositions also did not cause any stains even after drying under sunshine and at $80^{\circ}C$. Our results suggested that the spray formulation product was of practical use to control indoor fungi.

Silica hybrid silver nanoparticles showing the strong antimicrobial activity, in which nano-silver is bound to silica molecules, has been synthesized using ${\gamma}-irradiation$ at room temperature. The present study relates to an antimicrobial composition for coating fiber products comprising silica hybrid silver nanoparticles. In this study, we describe antimicrobial fiber products coated with the silica hybrid silver nanoparticles and a method of antimicrobially treating fiber products by coating the fiber products with the silica hybrid silver nanoparticles. The antimicrobial fiber products exhibited excellent antimicrobial effects. In detailed practice, when the present composition comprising nanosized silica-silver was applied to a cloth (fabric) in a concentration of $6.4mg\;yard^{-1}$, the viable cell number decreased to less than 10 cells before and after laundering, resulting in a reduction of 99.9% or greater in the viable cell number. The present composition displays long-lasting potent disinfecting effects on bacteria. Also, we investigated the toxicity of silica hybrid silver nanoparticles in rats. The skin of rats was treated with a 30 ppm nanoparticles solution ($2ml\;Kg^{-1}$) for 8 days. No toxicity was detected in the treatment. These results suggest that the fiber products coated with the silica hybrid silver nanoparticles can be used to inhibit the growth of various microorganisms.

Highly ordered mesoporous silver material was successfully synthesized from a mesoporous silica template (KIT-6) with 3-D channel structure using the nano-replication method. The effects of $H_2$ or $O_2$ pretreatments on the catalytic performance of the mesoporous silver were investigated using a temperature programmed CO oxidation technique in a fixed bed reactor. The mesoporous silver material that was pretreated with $H_2$ exhibited an excellent catalytic activity compared to the as-prepared and $O_2$-pretreated catalysts. Moreover, this present mesoporous silver material showed good catalytic stability. For the CO oxidation, the apparent activation energy of the $H_2$-pretreated mesoporous silver catalyst was $61{\pm}0.5\;kJ\;mol^{-1}$, which was also much lower than the as-prepared ($132{\pm}1.5\;kJ\;mol^{-1}$) and $O_2$-pretreated ($124{\pm}1.4\;kJ\;mol^{-1}$) catalysts.

실리카 지지체 위에 은 (silver) 나노 입자를 부착시키는 방법으로는 지지체 표면을 먼저 은입자와 친화성이 큰 amino(-NH2), mercapto(-SH), cyan(-CN) 등의 관능기로 표면처리 하는 방법이 일반적으로 사용된다. 구체적으로 설명하면 첫 단계로 지지체인 실리카입자의 표면을 아민으로 표면 처리 한다. 실리카 입자위에 부착된 아민관능기는 입자 생성의 단계에서 은 (silver) 나노 입자가 붙는 접촉점의 역할과 핵 생성 장소로서의 역할을 하게되고, 아민 관능기의 이런 역할로 실리카 입자 표면에 부착된 핵이 생장하여 입자가 됨으로써 최종적으로 은(silver) 나노 입자가 실리카 지지체위에 부착된 형태의 나노복합체가 형성된다. 분자량이 다른 PVP를 사용하여 제조한, NH2와 SH로 계면처리 된 은-실리카 나노복합체제조를 시도하였다. 사용되는 PVP의 분자량이 증가함에 따라 긴 고분자 사슬에 의하여 생성된 입체장애가 증가하게 되어, 은 핵의 성장에 대한 물리적 장벽이 증가하게 된다. 그러므로 고정화된 은 입자의 크기가 감소하게 된다. 이러한 형상은 NH2기 또는 SH기로 계면 처리된 실리카를 이용하여 제조된 은-실리카 나노복합체 입자들에서 모두 관찰되지만, SH기로 계면처리된 실리카를 사용할 경우 고정화된 은 입자의 수가 더욱 많고, 크기 역시 더욱 균일함을 알 수 있다.

Use of nanoparticles (NPs) in several commercial products has led to emergence of novel contaminants of air, soil and water bodies. The NPs may exhibit greater ecotoxicity due to nano-scale dependent properties over their bulk counterparts. The present investigation explores the effect of in vitro supplementation of TiO₂, silica and silver NPs on radial growth and ultrastructural changes in the hyphae and spores of two mushroom genera, Ganoderma lucidum and Volvariella volvaceae. A concentration dependent decrease in radial growth on NP amended potato dextrose agar medium was recorded. However, in comparison to control, there was decrease in radial diameter on supplementation with TiO₂ NPs while an increase was recorded for silica and silver NPs amendments as compared to their bulk salts at same concentrations after 48 h of incubation. Optical microscopy studies showed decrease in the number of spores while increase in spore diameter and thinning of hyphal diameter on NPs supplementation. Scanning electron microscopy analysis of fungal growth showed presence of deflated and oblong spores in two fruiting strains of Ganoderma while Volvariella exhibited decreased sporulation. Further, hyphal thinning and branching was recorded in response to NP amendments in both the test mushrooms. Enhancement of protein content was observed on NP compared to bulk supplementation for all cultures, concentrations and hours of incubation except for TiO₂ NPs. Likewise, bulk and NP supplementations (at 100 mg L^-1) resulted in enhanced laccase activity with occurrence of laccase specific protein bands on SDS-PAGE analysis.

본 실험은 '신고' 배 과원에 친환경 자재인 키틴분해미생물 배양액에 님오일, 은나노, 그리고 보르도액을 혼용하였을 경우, 그리고 위 친환경 자재에 합성농약을 살포했을 때 흑성병과 가루까지벌레 방제율, 과실품질 그리고 항산화 물질을 비교 분석하기 위해서 수행되었다. 친환경 자재를 이용한 무농약 처리구인 키틴분해미생물+님오일은 잎과 과실의 흑성병 감염율을 30% 이하로 감소 시켰으나 키틴분해미생물에 은나노나 보르도액 혼용은 높은 감염율을 보였다. 친환경 자재에 합성농약 처리구는 흑성병 감염율을 20% 이하로 감소시켰다. 키틴분해미생물+보르도액 무농약 처리구를 제외하고는 가루깍지 벌레 발생율을 모두 10% 이하로 감소시켰다. 과실품질 특성은 처리구간에 일정하게 나타나지 않았다. 과실 적색을 나타내는 Hunter value a값은 병해충 발생율이 높았던 키틴분해미생물에 은나노나 보르도액을 혼용한 무농약 처리구에서 합성농약 처리구보다 더 높게 관찰되었다. 친환경 자재에 무농약 처리구 과실이 합성농약 과실 보다 과피의 페놀함량을 제외하고 과피와 과육에서 높은 총페놀함량, 플라보노이드 함량, 그리고 항산화활성을 보여주었다.

Nanotechnology is the applied science which develops new materials and systems sized within 1 to 100 nanometer, and improves their physical, chemical, and biological characteristics by manipulating on an atomic and molecular scale. This nanotechnology has been applied to wide spectrum of industries resulting in production of various nanoparticles. It is expected that more nanoparticles will be generated and enter to natural water bodies, imposing great threat to potable water resources. However their toxicity and treatment options have not been throughly investigated, despite the significant growth of nanotechnology-based industries. The objective of this study is to provide fundamental information for the management of nanoparticles in water supply systems through extensive literature survey. More specifically, two types of nanoparticles are selected to be a potential problem for drinking water treatment. They are carbon nanoparticles such as carbon nanotube and fullerene, and metal nanoparticles including silver, gold, silica and titanium oxide. In this study, basic characteristics and toxicity of these nanoparticles were first investigated systematically. Their monitoring techniques and treatment efficiencies in conventional water treatment plants were also studied to examine our capability to mitigate the risk associated with nanoparticles. This study suggests that the technologies monitoring nanopartilces need to be greatly improved in water supply systems, and more advanced water treatment processes should be adopted for better control of these nanoparticles.
