Alumina nanoparticles were prepared by sol-gel method, where the obtained nanosize was 35 nm, and the nanomaterial was coated with PVP polymer, where the nanomaterial was dispersed by ultrasonic waves for half an hour, and then, the polymer was added, and under high magnetic stirring for 24 hours, it was dried at a temperature of 60°C for 24 hours. Cadmium salt solutions were prepared with different concentrations of 10, 30, and 60 ppm, and the nanomaterial was immersed in the prepared solutions at different times of 10, 30, and 60 minutes, and the measurement was done by an atomic absorption device. By means of the electronic scanner, a difference appeared in the nanosize, and this indicates that the packaging has completely occurred.
Nanoscience has developed various greener approaches as an alternate method for the synthesis of nanoparticles and nanocomposites. The present study discusses the efficacy of berries extract for the synthesis of ZnO nanocomposites. Characterization of synthesized nanocomposite were done by SEM, UV/VIS spectrophotometry, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and XRD techniques. The crystalline nature of the synthesized nanoparticles was verified by XRD pattern in the range of 10-80 nm. The UV absorption peak of Elaeagnus umbellata (ZnO-EU) nanocomposite at 340 nm, Rubus idaeus (ZnO-Ri) nanocomposite at 360 nm, and Rubus fruticosus (ZnO-Rf) nanocomposite at 360 nm was observed. The nanocomposites were analyzed for their antimicrobial activity and found to be effective against three phytopathogens. The antimicrobial activity of ZnO nanocomposites showed good results against Escherichia coli (341), Staphylococcus aureus (345B), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (5994 NLF). This study presents a simple and inexpensive approach for synthesizing zinc oxide nanocomposites with effective antibacterial activity.
According to the research, there are many illnesses for which therapeutic mineral hot springs are employed as an alternative. Its physicochemical characteristics have a substantial body of evidence. The in vivo antioxidant effect of Mosul’s hot springs in Iraq has been investigated in the current investigation. An experimental design for toxicity, a control group, and a study group were created. In addition, in vivo antioxidant effect of the hot springs of Mosul, Iraq, has been studied by the lipid antiperoxidation method with ( p < 0.05 ), in vitro by the free radical scavenging method (DPPH) for its complexing capacity of hot springs. In acute oral toxicity in vivo at fixed doses, looking for signs and symptoms of toxicity, there are no signs of intoxication or significant changes in the biochemical analysis (blood count). And, it was discovered that the variances are substantial. The animal was necropsied, and hematological and biochemical parameters were determined, as well as the organs’ histological processing at the study’s conclusion. It was found that the thermal waters from Mosul, Iraq, are medicinal mineral waters, chlorinated, sodium, and sulfated, nontoxic and have an antioxidant effect. With the help of the research’s findings, it is hoped to provide scientific support for knowledge that, when made public, encourages the development of Mosul’s hot springs as a safe and environmentally friendly tourist destination. With the results of this research, the parameters were presented with their mean and standard deviation statistics, promoting the ecological and sanitary tourism development of the Mosul hot springs, which will generate more significant income for the population, therefore growth in the region.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
