Biogenic biocompatible silver nanoparticles: a promising antibacterial agent.

The biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are gaining attention because they are eco-friendly, non-hazardous, economical and devoid of the drawbacks of physicochemical processes. Biogenic approaches for synthesizing nanoparticles (NPs) using plant leaves, seeds, bark, stems, fruits, roots and flowers are highly cost-effective compared to other methods. Silver (Ag) has been used since ancient times, but biogenic AgNPs have only been made in the last few decades.

Therapeutic potential of biogenic and optimized silver nanoparticles using Rubia cordifolia L. leaf extract.

Rubia cordifolia L. is a widely used traditional medicine in the Indian sub-continent and Eastern Asia. In the present study, the aqueous leaf extract of the R.

White light emission and thermoluminescence studies of Dy -activated hardystonite (Ca ZnSi O ) phosphor.

Here, we report the photoluminescence and thermoluminescent properties of Dy-activated Ca ZnSi O phosphors synthesized using the solid-state method. The synthesized phosphors showed hardystonite type structure, and had micron-sized particles. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) showed the existence of the functional groups and confirmed the formation of phosphor and photoluminescence techniques.

Prevalence of abnormal upper limb arterial anatomy and its correlation with access failure during transradial coronary angiography.

Objective: The study aimed at to find out prevalence of abnormal upper limb arterial anatomy and its correlation with access failure during transradial coronary angiography.

Method: This was a prospective observational study of 1512 patients who had undergone transradial coronary angiography (CAG). Angiographic assessment of upper limb arterial tree was performed when the angiographic guidewire or the diagnostic catheter followed an abnormal path or got stuck in its course.

Cytotoxic, Antimitotic, DNA Binding, Photocatalytic, HO Sensing, and Antioxidant Properties of Biofabricated Silver Nanoparticles Using Leaf Extract of (Lam.) Oken.

is a perennial herb traditionally used in ethnomedicine. In the present report, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized using leaf extract. BP-AgNPs were confirmed following UV-Vis spectroscopy with SPR peak at 412 nm and further characterized by FTIR, XRD, SEM-EDX, and TEM.
