Fabrication, toxicity and biocompatibility of Sesamum indicum infused graphene oxide nanofiber  - a novel green composite method

Optimization of reduced graphene oxide production using central composite design from Pennisetum glaucum for biomedical applications

“…The results report that concentration‐dependent cell lysis was observed and up to 100 μg concentration, the percentage of hemolysis was calculated to be 3.96 for GO and 2.74 for rGO, respectively (Figure 10(A)). Our sample showed closer biocompatibility and hemolytic ratio of less than 5% as reported in literature 53,54 …”

Sustainable Applications of Nanofibers in Agriculture and Water Treatment: A Review

“…Nanofibers can apply for plant protection (through applying pesticides for pest control), plant growth (through applying hormones and/or fertilizers), pollution and contamination controls, and irrigation systems (through water filtration), as reported in Table 3 by Meraz-Dávila et al [56], Raja et al [57], and [58]. The main applications of nanofibers in the agricultural field may include coating seeds [60][61][62], nanofibers-based filters for irrigation systems [65], nanofibers for plant protection [56] through encapsulation of fungicides [66,67], or detecting trace some pesticides in water [69], nano-silica grafted fiber [70], smart nanotextiles for sustainable agriculture [13], nanofibers for encapsulation of agrochemicals including fertilizer [75], and phytohormones [71,72]. Nanofibers can be used as a smart and sustained delivery of agricultural inputs through seed to improve germination and seedling growth in rice [59,76] and cowpea [60], groundnut [57], and sesame [62].…”

“…Several nanomaterials such as graphene oxide could be used for water purification because of its multi-functionality, such as an antibacterial agent, excellent adsorption property, and photocatalytic abilities [77]. Thus, nanofibers could be sustainably applied in many agricultural processes that lead to reduce the loss in used agrochemicals pesticides, hormones, and/or fertilizers [57,[61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74], and to increase the productivity of crops through innovative management of phytopathogens or nutrients [13].…”

“…The synthetic material-based composites should be replaced by natural ones in several manufacturing industries, such as the field of textiles, which flax was used in ancient Egypt nearly 7000 years ago [3]. The cellulose is the most important component of the lignocellulosic natural fibers, which many plants could order their content of cellulose (%) as follows straw of rice (41)(42)(43)(44)(45)(46)(47)(48)(49)(50)(51)(52)(53)(54)(55)(56)(57), leaf of date palm (46), leaf of abaca (56)(57)(58)(59)(60)(61)(62)(63), bast of jute (61)(62)(63)(64)(65)(66)(67)(68)(69)(70)(71), leaf of banana , leaf of sisal (65), bast of hemp (68), bast of ramie (68.6-76.2), bast of flax (71), bast of kenaf (72), leaf of curaua (73.6), leaf of pineapple (81), bast of nettle (81)…”
