Article Synopsis
  • - The study explored the breakdown of the drug Valsartan using non-equilibrium atmospheric pressure plasma (NEAPP) and assessed the effectiveness of different treatment conditions, including the use of synthesized ZnO nanoparticles.
  • - The characteristics of the ZnO nanoparticles were analyzed through various techniques, and the efficiency of VS degradation was measured under different environments and combinations with plasma.
  • - Results indicated that using plasma with ZnO nanoparticles significantly enhanced the degradation of Valsartan due to increased production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, outperforming other treatment methods.

Crystalline substance of naphthalene picrate (NP) was synthesized and single crystals were grown using slow evaporation solution growth technique. The solubility of the naphthalene picrate complex was estimated using different solvents such as chloroform and benzene. The material was characterized by elemental analysis, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) techniques.
