Nanotechnology, Green Synthesis and Biological Activity Application of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Incorporated Argemone Mxicana Leaf Extract

Abstract

Nanomaterial is a rapidly growing area that is used to create a variety of new materials and nanotechnology applications from medical, pharmaceuticals, chemical, mechanical, electronics and several environmental industries including physical, chemical and biological nanoparticles are very important in our daily life. Nanoparticles with leaf extract from the healthy plant are important in the area of research using biosynthesis methods. Because of it’s used as an environmentally ecofriendly, other than traditional physical and chemical strategies. In particular, biologically synthesized nanoparticles have become a key branch of nanotechnology. The present work presents a synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles using an extract from the Argemone leaf Mexicana. Biosynthetic nanoparticles are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Ultraviolet visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy analysis, a Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy analysis (FTIR) and a scanning electron microcopy (SEM), X-ray analysis with dispersive energy (EDAX). XRD is used to examine the crystalline size of zinc oxide nanoparticles. The FTIR test consists in providing evidence of the presence of targeted teams. UV is used for optical properties and calculates the energy of the bandwidth slot. The scanning microscope emission reveals the morphology of the surface and the energy dispersive X-ray analysis confirms the basic composition of zinc oxide nanoparticles. It is found that zinc nanoparticles are capable of achieving high anti-fungal efficacy and therefore have a high potential antimicrobial activity of ZnO NPs, like antibacterial and high antioxidant. Zinc Oxide nanoparticles from the Argemone Mexicana leaf extract have several antimicrobial applications, such as medical specialty, cosmetics, food, biotechnology, nano medicine and drug delivery system. ZnO nanoparticles are important because they provide many practical applications in industry. The most important use of nanoparticles of ZnO would be strong antibacterial and antioxidant activity with a simple and efficient biosynthesis method may be used for future work applications.

A Study of Zn-Ca Nanocomposites and Their Antibacterial Properties

“…The presented study was based on the implementation of a nanocomposite (Zn-Ca) as an antibacterial agent. The use of nanomaterials in the dental field has been reported [13][14][15][16][17] as an alternative to currently used treatments [4]. The implementation of calcium ions in nanocomposites provided the material with the specific characteristics demonstrated in this study.…”

“…The incorporation of ZnO into dental components has received special attention, representing an effective alternative for biomedicine, specifically in oral health [13]. The antibacterial properties of ZnO as a nanocomposite can be used against Gram-negative bacteria, such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) [13,14], as well as Gram-positive bacteria, such as Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) and Staphyococcus aureus (S. aureus), and it has gained interest for the elimination of these bacteria from the oral cavity [3,6,7].…”

Characterization and Comparison of Antibacterial Activities of Plant-Mediated Synthesized Zinc Oxide (Zno) Nanoparticles Using Punica Granatum, Bryophyllum Pinnatum , Calotropis Gigantea ,Argemone Maxicana, Ocimum Sanctum Plant Extracts

“…Nanoparticles are deposited at the bottom of the beaker .The clear solution is removed and therefore the particles thoroughly rinsed twice daily with distilled water for 4 days .The extract solution is then removed and the particles are collected and transferred to silica crucible cup and muffle furnace at 500°C for 2 h, the sample has finally been taken to the mortor and ground in a fine powder. (18) Preparation of Plant Extract of Ocimum sanctum: The fresh leaves of Ocimum sanctum were collected and washed with running tap water. Leaves were slit into small pieces, ground, add 100ml of distilled water and then heated for 20 min in at 60°Cand then filtered using mesh (22 μm) and stored in the refrigerator for further use.…”

Synthesis, Characterization and Biological Activities of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Derived from Secondary Metabolites of Lentinula edodes

“…Nanotechnology is concerned with developing and using particles up to 200 nm in size [2]. Based on specific factors including size, dispersion and morphology, the research on nanoparticles is altogether new and growing more advanced [3]. It has the potential to revolutionize many different industries by manipulating matter at the nanoscale.…”
