Nanotechnology has emerged in different fields of biomedical application, including lifestyle diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease, neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease, and different types of cancers. Metal nanoparticles are one of the most used drug delivery systems due to the benefits of their enhanced physicochemical properties as compared to bulk metals. Neurodegenerative diseases are the second most cause affecting mortality worldwide after cancer.

Article Synopsis
- The research focuses on isolating hesperidin from orange peel and creating hesperidin gold nanoparticles to explore their biomedical and environmental applications.
- Gold nanoparticles, known for their effectiveness in visible light, were tested for their ability to degrade organic dyes and pollutants, showing first-order kinetics in photocatalytic activity.
- Additionally, these hesperidin gold nanoparticles demonstrated significant antioxidant properties, outperforming ascorbic acid, indicating their potential as both antioxidants and photocatalysts for healthcare and pollution management.
