The application of lipid coated nanoparticles has been expanding in nanoscience over the past few years. Lipid corona formation is one of the novel ways for the lipid conjugation around the nanoparticles. Although several properties of nanoparticles and lipids are well reported in literature in last few years, the dependency of lipid corona formation on metallic core and surface ligands is poorly understood. The aggregation, surface oxidation and metal ions dissolution of nanoparticles limit their usefulness in various applications. Besides all the reported methods to overcome all of these limitations, lipid corona could be an alternative, feasible, and more efficient method. In the current manuscript, we investigate the interaction of aromatic amino acids (tyrosine and tryptophan) functionalized silver nanoparticles (Ag-Tyr and Ag-Trp NPs) with different surface charged and phase states lipid vesicles and compare them with the reported amino acid functionalized gold nanoparticles (Au-AA NPs). The effectiveness of different zwitterionic and positively charged lipid coated Ag-Tyr and Ag-Trp NPs to prevent the aggregation and Ag+ion dissolution of Ag NPs against different external stimuli (acidic pH, high NaCl concentration, and freeze-thaw cycles) are investigated. Our results reveal that surface ligands around the NPs play crucial role for lipid corona formation irrespective of the metallic core of NPs. Although all the lipid coated Ag NPs exhibit greater stability against external stimuli than native Ag NPs, zwitterionic lipid coated Ag NPs is better choice than positively charged lipid coated Ag NPs. This study on lipid corona and its stability will help the nanoresearcher to choose the suitable lipid for lipid corona formation. |
