Context: By delivering the drug to the intended cell location, the use of nanomaterials in the drug delivery system may influence how the patient receives the medication and may assist in mitigating severe side effects. Density functional theory was used to assess the use of boron carbon nitride nanocages (BNCNCs), boron nitride (BNNSs), and boron carbon nitride nanosheets (BNCNSs) as melphalan (Mln) drug carriers in both the gaseous and fluid phases. We systematically examined the dipole moment, density of states, frontier molecular orbital, and optimal adsorption energy to understand the targeted drug delivery potential of these nanostructures.

Tungsten oxide (WO) nanoparticles have immense applications as semiconductors, antimicrobials and photo thermal materials but their synthesis using biological systems is hitherto unpublicized. The paper discusses synthesis of WO nanoparticles using and the optimization of physico-chemical parameters of incubation which influence the growth and metabolism of the bacterium and consequently the size of the WO nanoparticles.

The zone centered vibrational phonon frequencies shows, there is a blue shift in the mid and high frequency range from Cl → Br due to change in mass and force constant with respect to oxygen atom. From the band structure it is clear that the top of the valence band is due to thalliumstates, whereas the bottom of the conduction band is due to halogenand oxygenstates, showing similar magnitude of dispersion and exhibits a charge transfer character.
