“…There are many reports that plant extracts / different parts of plant have been used for the synthesis of ZnO NPs, such as Trifolium pratense flower extract [21], Aloe vera leaf extracts [22], Rosa canina fruit extract [23], Physalis alkekengi L. seed extract [24], and Citrus aurantifolia (lemon) peel extract [25], C. aurantifolia [26], dried sap of shoots and roots of Astragalus gummifer [27], Hibiscus rosasinensis [28], leaf extract of Azadirachta indica [29], Leaf extract of Camellia sinensis [30], Zea mays leaf extract [31], aqueous extract of Abutilon indicum [32] and Dittrichia graveolens aqueous extract [33]. The synthesis of ZnO NPs was studied with the leaf extract of Ocimum tenuiflorum and was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier infrared transformation spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD).…”

Due to distinguishing characteristics of nanoparticles (NPs) in terms of size, shape, chemical composition, transmittal and different applications, nanotechnology is considered as an interesting domain of research. Application of metallic NPs is important because of the diminution of dimensions and thus the unique thermal, optical and electronic properties. This research attempts to explore the synthesis of zinc oxide NPs. Zinc oxide NPs have been synthesized using cherry extract under different pH, temperature and concentration and then optimum conditions for the synthesis of them were determined. For further investigations, UV-Vis spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier infrared transformation spectroscopy (FTIR) were used. The solution containing zinc oxide NPs showed a major absorbance of 378 nm which confirmed the synthesis of zinc oxide NPs, and spherical morphology of NPs was observed in SEM images. Zinc oxide NP sizes were 6.5 and 20.18 nm which are obtained by UV-Vis spectra and XRD spectrum, respectively. Also, based on the FTIR spectra of the extract obtained before and after the synthesis, the existence of the reducing agents in herbal extract was confirmed. According to this study, the biological synthesis of NPs using plant extracts can be considered as a cost-effective and efficient method of biological synthesis of NPs and it could be an appropriate replacement to typical chemical methods for the synthesis of NPs.

“…The zeta potential was found to be -29.6 mV for ZnO nanoparticles treated at 800W for 6 minutes of heating time which indicated the higher degrees of stability. It has been reported that the value of zeta potential within the range of −30 mV to +30 mV represent the stable nanoparticles with low possibility of agglomeration [34][35][36].…”

Nowadays, zinc oxide (ZnO) has attracted attention in research and development because of its remarkable antibacterial properties. Chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles were successfully synthesized via microwave heating. The objectives of this work were to investigate the effect of stabilizer, power heating and time heating on size of chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles and to determine antibacterial activity against pathogenic bacteria, where chitosan was used as a stabilizing agent. Chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles were analyzed by Fourier Transform Infra Red (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), and Zetasizer instrument. The power heating and time heating were varied from 400 to 800 Watt and 4 to 8 minutes, respectively. The presence of chitosan has role on preventing the nanoparticles from agglomeration by producing a milky solution of chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles without any suspensions. The increase of power and time heating improved the size of nanoparticles. The peak in FTIR spectrum at around 427 cm -1 was confirmed the existence of the ZnO phase. XRD patterns showed that the chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles materials were pure phase with average crystalline size is 130 nm. FESEM revealed that chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles were uniformly distributed with the mean value of size is 70 nm and spherical shaped. Further impact of power and time heating on the size of the chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles can be shown by a nanoparticles size distribution with the average of 30 to 90 nm. The results showed that chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles have displayed an antibacterial inhibition zone against Gram-positive S. aureus and Gram-negative E. coli which 16.0 and 13.3 mm, respectively. Chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized in this work presented have potential application to prevent bacterial infections.

“…The activity of these enzymes can be used for evaluation of the cell viability. The method was conducted according to Jafarirad et al [42] after some modifications. Briefly, in 1.5 mL Eppendorf tubes the 0.1 mL of the MTT solution (5 g L -1 ) and 0.5 mL of bacteria cells suspension (OD 600 = 1.0) in the culture mineral medium were mixed.…”

A group of four selected non-ionic surfactants based on carbohydrates, namely octyl d-xyloside (C8X), nonyl d-xyloside (C9X), decyl d-xyloside (C10X) and dodecyl d-xyloside (C12X), have been investigated to accomplish a better understanding of their physico-chemical properties as well as biological activities. The surface-active properties, such as critical micelle concentration (CMC), emulsion and foam stability, the impact of the compounds on cell surface hydrophobicity and cell membrane permeability together with their toxicity on the selected bacterial strains have been determined as well. The studied group of surfactants showed high surface-active properties allowing a decrease in the surface tension to values below 25 mN m−1 for dodecyl d-xyloside at the CMC. The investigated compounds did not have any toxic influence on two Pseudomonas bacterial strains at concentrations below 25 mg L−1. The studied long-chain alkyl xylosides influenced both the cell inner membrane permeability and the cell surface hydrophobicity. Furthermore, the alkyl chain length, as well as the surfactant concentration, had a significant impact on the modifications of the cell surface properties. The tested non-ionic surfactants exhibited strong surface-active properties accompanied by the significant influence on growth and properties of Pseudomonas bacteria cells.
