Antibacterial, antioxidant, and anticancer potential of green fabricated silver nanoparticles made from Viburnum grandiflorum leaf extract.

Background: Recently, researchers are focusing on creating new tools to combat the antibiotic resistant bacteria and malignancy issues, which pose significant threats to humanity. Biosynthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are thought to be a potential solution to these issues. The biosynthesis method, known for its environmentally friendly and cost-effective characteristics, can produce small-sized AgNPs with antimicrobial and anticancer properties.

leaf extract mediated green production of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles for antibacterial and antioxidant activity.

Background: Fabricating zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) from plant extracts is a cost-effective, safe, and environmentally friendly alternative to established chemical procedures. This study was aimed at the environmentally friendly fabrication of ZnO-NPs from plant extract. An additional objective was to investigate the antibacterial and antioxidant activity of these biosynthesized ZnO-NPs.

Green synthesis and characterization of copper nanoparticles for investigating their effect on germination and growth of wheat.

Today, different types of nanoparticles (NPs) are being synthesized and used for medical and agricultural applications. In this study, copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) were synthesized using the aqueous extract of mint (Mentha longifolia L.).
