Abstract
- Biosurfactant rhamnolipids were extracted from P. aeruginosa culture extract.
- Non-toxic concentration (0.005%) of rhamnolipids was used for synthesis of Rh-AgNPs.
- Rh-AgNPs exhibited more cytotoxicity to MCF-7 cells than normal PBMN cells.
- Rh-AgNPs caused ROS generation, membrane damage and apoptosis in MCF-7 cells.
- Oxidative stress pathway genes are implicated in Rh-AgNPs induced MCF-7 cells death.
