Abstract

Results of the investigation of cytotoxic and immunomodulating action of silver nanocomposites Ag15 (7.8 % Ag) and Ag13 (5 % Ag) with poly(1-vinyl-1,2,4-triazole) and platinum with arabinogalactan on primary and transformed human cells in vitro are presented. It is demonstrated that nanocomposites of metals with biopolymers possess more clearly pronounced cytotoxic effect in comparison with metal nanoparticles and do not induce inflammation in cell lines under investigation. It is established that silver nanocomposite Ag15 possesses selective cytotoxicity with respect to the cells of cervical adenocarcinoma HeLa.
