Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the green synthesis of ZnO-MgO-MnO nanocomposites using Ocimum basilicum L. (OBL) seed extract, emphasizing its eco-friendly advantages.
  • Two calcination temperatures (500 °C and 600 °C) were used, resulting in different nanocomposite properties, with XRD showing an increase in crystal size from ~32 nm to ~84 nm.
  • Photocatalytic tests revealed high removal rates of various organic dyes (up to 99%), while cytotoxicity assessments indicated an IC value of around 323 µg/mL on a 4T1 cell line, highlighting potential implications for environmental and health applications.

Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the accumulation of beta-amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Effective therapeutic strategies involve inhibiting the formation of beta-amyloid aggregates and destabilizing existing ones. A significant challenge in current treatments is the inability of therapeutic agents to cross the blood-brain barrier, a limitation addressed by employing drug nanocarriers.

The current study tries to find the impact of the integration of laccase enzyme (Lac) onto magnetized chitosan (Cs) nanoparticles composed of molybdenum disulfide (MoS NPs) (FeO/Cs/MoS/Lac NPs) on the removal of AFM in milk samples. The FeO/Cs/MoS/Lac NPs were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, BET, TEM, FESEM, EDS, PSA, and VSM analysis. The cytotoxic activity of the synthesized nanoparticles in different concentrations was evaluated using the MTT method.

This study aimed to develop a highly efficient nanocomposite composed of magnetic chitosan/molybdenum disulfide (CS/MoS/FeO) for the removal of three polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)-pyrene, anthracene, and phenanthrene. Novelty was introduced through the innovative synthesis procedure and the utilization of magnetic properties for enhanced adsorption capabilities. Additionally, the greenness of chitosan as a sorbent component was emphasized, highlighting its biodegradability and low environmental impact compared to traditional sorbents.
