Article Synopsis

Sulfanilic acid (SFA) crystal is a versatile material used in photonics and biomedical applications, and this article discusses the growth of a high-quality SFA single crystal using the slow evaporation solution method over 75 days.
The resulting transparent crystal, measuring 5 × 5 × 2 mm, underwent various characterizations such as Single Crystal XRD, FTIR, UV-Visible analysis, and Scanning Electron Microscopy to assess its structural and optical properties.
Notably, this study is the first to explore the cytotoxicity and larvicidal activity of SFA crystal, testing its efficacy against cancer cells and potential anti-malarial properties using the MTT Assay.

Lepidagathis cristata (L. cristata) plant produces reducing and capping agents; this study utilized microwave-assisted biogenic synthesis to manufacture silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using this plant. The structure, morphology, and crystallinity phases of prepared nanoparticles (NPs) were characterized by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-viz), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
