What is Unveiling the antisporulant activity of mycosynthesized gold-selenide nanoparticles against black fungus Aspergillus niger about?

Gold-selenide (AuSe), a transition metal chalcogenide, has become a highly-promising material in electronics and other technologies due to its stable 2D layered structure with ultrahigh carrier mobilities. Recently, these unexplored micro-particles have been synthesized by chemical routes in inert nitrogen or argon atmosphere. To flourish new applications at a low cost to the environment, it is of prime importance to develop a novel, eco-friendly, energy-effective, economical bio-approach for the synthesis of AuSe NPs as environmentally sustainable biological routes are free from the use of toxic chemicals owing considerable importance in biomedical science. Herein, we for the first time report an endophytic fungus Fusarium oxysporum assisted green approach for the mycosynthesis of AuSe NPs at the ambient atmospheric conditions and unveiled their anti-sporulant activity against the black fungus Aspergillus niger. The biosynthesized, crystalline AuSe NPs with an average particle size of 52 nm have been fully characterized using sophisticated instruments while the microscopic study confirmed its high anti-sporulation potency against Aspergillus niger. As the spore germination is comp
