“…These phytochemicals possess antioxidant properties and are free from toxic substances, enabling them to effectively reduce ionized metals to zerovalent metals. Additionally, these phytochemicals directly influence the size and shape of the biosynthesized nanoparticles or nanocomposites Figure b displays the UV–vis spectrum of parsley leaf extract, showing prominent peaks at 264 and 325 nm, as previously demonstrated by El-Borady, Ayat, Shabrawy, and Millet .…”

In this study, a simple, low-cost, and environmentally friendly method for the green synthesis of ZnO/CuO nanocomposites (NCs) using parsley extract was developed. The phytochemical components in the parsley leaf extract reacted with precursor salts in solution and yielded ZnO/CuO NCs. The synthesis of the green-synthesized NCs was confirmed via various characterization techniques, including UV−vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). Subsequently, the NCs were subjected to rigorous in vitro evaluation of their anticoccidial properties. The results showed that the NCs had a spherical shape within an average particle size of around 70 nm. The green-synthesized NCs were evaluated for their in vitro anticoccidial activity against Eimeria spp. The findings showed that the NCs exhibited a significant anticoccidial effect, with a maximum inhibition of 55.3 ± 0.32% observed at a concentration of 0.5 mg/mL. The exposure to the NCs resulted in notable alterations in the ultrastructure of the oocysts when compared to the control group. The ZnO/CuO NCs synthesized from the parsley leaf extract showed promising potential against coccidiosis and could be used in biomedical applications. Further investigation using an in vivo model is required to ascertain the efficacy of NCs as anticoccidial agents.

Green synthesis offers a superior alternative to traditional methods for producing metal and metal oxide nanoparticles. This approach is not only benign and safe but also cost-effective, scalable, and straightforward, operating under ambient conditions. Notable metals and metal oxide nanoparticles, such as manganese oxides, iron oxides, silver, and gold, have been produced using various bio-reductants derived from plant extracts. These biological agents not only expedite the reduction process but also stabilize the nanoparticles, serving dual roles as reducing and capping agents. This review presents the green synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) obtained from biogenic wastes and plant extracts. The green-synthesized nanostructured MnO2 nanoparticles are evaluated as a potential photocatalyst for water treatment and as an electrode material in lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors. The green-derived iron oxide nanoparticles are examined as promising antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-diabetic agents. Additionally, this review discusses the green synthesis of precious metal nanoparticles, specifically silver (Ag NPs) and gold (Au NPs), highlighting their potential medical applications in areas like antiviral treatments and cancer therapy.
