Green Synthesis of Nickel Oxide (NiO) Nanoparticles Using Spirostachys africana Bark Extract

Green synthesis and characterization of ruthenium oxide nanoparticles using Gunnera perpensa for potential anticancer activity against MCF7 cancer cells

“…Synthesis of nanoparticles was conducted using an established method by Lefojane et al 10 with slight modifications. Five grams (5 g) of ruthenium chloride [RuCl 3 xH 2 O] (Sigma-Aldrich) was mixed with 30 ml of Gunnera perpensa leaves extract for the synthesis of ruthenium oxide nanoparticles.…”

Hybridization of nickel oxide nanoparticles with carbon dots and its application for antibacterial activities

“…[4,5] For various types of nanoscale materials, metal oxide NPs have attracted much attention in medicine, because they are simple to prepare and have separate purposeful groups that allow an easy association with drugs of interest, ligands, and antibodies. [6,7] Nickel oxide (NiO) NPs are p-type semiconductors with specific magnetic properties such as superparamagnetic, superantiferromagnetic, and ferromagnetic properties, depending on particle size and shape, but bulk-sized NiO is an antiferromagnetic insulator. [8] NiO NPs are utilized for many applications including medicine and drug delivery, [9,10] colour, catalytic activity, [10,11] cancer treatment, [12] optoelectronics and magnetic devices, [13,14] and ferromagnetic materials.…”
