Abstract:Silica nanoparticles, amino-terminated silica nanoparticles and fluorescent silica nanoparticles were prepared respectively via the formation of hydrolysis of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) with the synchronous modification of amino functional group in water-in-oil microemulsion. The diameter of the prepared nanoparticles was tested to be 40 nm through TEM analysis, and Zeta potential of the silica nanoparticles surface modified was tested to be 16 mV with zeta potentioneter under the condition of neutral pH value. Agarose gel electrophoresis photos indicate that the amino- terminated silica nanoparticles can bind effectively with DNA molecule, and moreover, nanoparticles-DNA complexes formed could resist digestion of DNase in the serum. The tests of cell by microscopy show that the most of nanoparticles can enter the cells when fluorescence nanoparticles are cultured with live HT1080 cells. Toxicity experiments in vitro indicate that there is no significant influence silica nanoparticles when they are cultured with normal cells. Finally, transfection tests of silica nanoparticles in the cultured cells reveal that plasmid DNA (pEGFP-N1_green fluorescence protein) can obtain expression with certain efficiency when the complexes formed with silica nanoparticles modified and DNA (pEGFP-N1) are cultured with Hela cells.
