Abstract

There has been increasing attention and research in various nanoparticle applications. Nanoparticles have been used for a variety of purposes in different departments including but not limited to cosmetics, food, machinery, and chemical. A highly sought-after field to use nanoparticles, especially natural or artificial silver nanoparticles (SNPs), is the utilization of their significant antimicrobial properties in daily items such as fabrics, indoor air filters, and, water filtration units where abundant bacterial and fungal growth are inevitable. These applications of SNPs, however, have enabled continuous human exposure and hence paved the way for potential SNP toxicity depending on exposure method and particle size. This potential toxicity has led to researches on safer antimicrobial solutions to be utilized in textile and filtration. In this context, products of natural origin have gained expanding interest due to their eco-friendly, cost-effective, and biologically safe properties along their promising antibacterial and antifungal activities. Natural product-applied fabrics and filters have been shown to be comparable to those that are SNP-treated in terms of ease production, material durability, and antimicrobial efficiency. This article summarizes and assesses the current state of in vitro and in vitro toxicity of SNPs and discusses the potential of natural products as an alternative.

나노 입자는 화장품, 식품, 기계, 화학 산업 등에 다양한 용도로 활용되고 있으며, 그 응용분야가 광범히 하여 나노 입자 사용에 대한 관심과 연구가 지속적으로 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 특히 금속나노 입자 중 하나인 은나노 입자는 항균 및 항진균 효과가 뛰어나 의류, 실내 공기필터, 증류필터 등 다양한 방면에 활용되고 있다. 하지만 은나노 입자의 지속적인 노출 시, 입자 크기와 노출방식에 따라 인체에 독성을 유발하는 것으로 알려져 있어 친환경적이고 생물학적으로 안전한 천연물 유래 소재를 활용한 은나노 입자의 기술개발이 필요하다. 천연물이 적용된 실내필터와 의류는 생산의 용이성, 제품 내구성 및 항균 활성에서 은나노 적용제품과 비교될 수 있는 것으로 나타고 있다. 본 연구에서는 은나노의 생체 내 미치는 독성 메커니즘에 대해 알아보고 은나노의 대안으로 항균 활성을 지닌 천연물의 항균 활성에 대해 기술하고자 한다.
