“…After mixing the plant extracts and Zn precursors, a white or yellowish paste is observed, indicating successful formation [62,63]. The green-mediated ZnNPs exhibited a strong UV absorption peak around 300-400 nm [63,64] and a crystalline structure in their hexagonal wurtzite phase [Miller index = (100), (002), ( 101), ( 102), ( 110), ( 200), ( 112), ( 201), (004), and (202)], where each Zn +2 ion was ordered in a tetragonal coordination with a polar symmetry throughout the hexagonal axis [62,65]. These ZnNPs exhibited Eg values from 2.67 to 3.37 eV and a negative zeta potential (−40 mV) [63,65].…”

The synthesis of inorganic nanoparticles for diverse applications is an active research area that involves physical and chemical methods, which typically are expensive, involve hazardous chemical reagents, use complex equipment and synthesis conditions, and consume large amounts of time and energy. Thus, green synthesis methods have emerged as eco-friendly and easy alternatives for inorganic nanoparticle synthesis, particularly the use of plant-based extracts from fruit juice, leaves, seeds, peel, stem, barks, and roots, which act as reducing, capping, and stabilizing agents, contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals and circular economy principles. Therefore, diverse inorganic nanoparticles have been synthesized using plant-based extracts, including gold, silver, titanium dioxide, zinc, copper, platinum, zirconium, iron, selenium, magnesium, nickel, sulfur, cobalt, palladium, and indium nanoparticles, which exhibit different biological activities such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, dye degradation, cytotoxic, analgesic, sedative, wound-healing, skin protection, sensor development, and plant-growth-promoting effects. Therefore, this review summarizes the advantages and limitations of plant-based extracts as reducing, capping, and stabilizing agents for inorganic nanoparticle green synthesis.

“…The main distinction was that the reflection broadening caused both microstrain and small crystallites due to microstructural factors [12]. By comparing equation (6) and that of a basic straight line, which is y mx c, = + we have cos T b qand 4 sin q acting as the y-axis and x-axis, respectively. Equation (6) stands for the uniform deformation model (UDM), whereby it is assumed that strain is uniform in all crystallographic directions.…”

The purpose of this ongoing research project is to enhance the quality of zinc oxide (ZnO) powder synthesised through a green synthesis process using extracts from C. hystrix. The objective is to explore the potential of C. hystrix as a sustainable source for the production of ZnO nanoparticles with improved properties. Through a series of experimental procedures, including characterisation techniques such as x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and UV–vis spectroscopy, the synthesised ZnO powder’s structural, morphological, and optical properties are evaluated. Additionally, the photocatalytic activity of the biosynthesised ZnO powder is assessed for its effectiveness in degrading organic pollutants under UV illumination. By systematically optimising the synthesis parameters and understanding the underlying mechanisms, this research endeavours to contribute to the advancement of green synthesis approaches for producing high-quality ZnO nanoparticles that demonstrate enhanced performance, thereby fostering sustainable and eco-friendly nanomaterial synthesis processes. Following the successful production of eco-friendly ZnO through green synthesis, the optimum sample will undergo several experiments using a doping method with various chemical substances.

Primary objective of this research was to examine the biogenic production of TiO2 NPs using Brassica juncea (L.) Czern seed and investigate the prospective uses of thus synthesized nanoparticles in the area of biomedicine. The synthesized TiO2 NPs were subjected to characterization using several analytical methods namely TEM, UV‐vis, XRD, FE‐SEM, FTIR and EDAX. The average particle size (TEM) is found to be 38 nm, exhibiting irregular shapes. The FT‐IR spectra indicated that the extract contains functional groups, such as polyphenolic, hydroxyl and carboxylic groups, which are likely responsible for formation of nanoparticles. The cytotoxicity studies of the synthesized TiO2 NPs against breast cancer cells (MCF‐7) and lung cells (A549) are shown to be dosage dependent. The inhibitory doses (IC50) were determined to be 43.98 μg/mL and 74.50 μg/mL on MCF‐7 and A549 cells, respectively. Green synthesized TiO2 NPs were assessed for antioxidant activity inhibition rate (DPPH 89.42 %). TiO2 NPs exhibited a maximal zone of inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus 23±0.20 mm against and 20±0.30 against Klebsiella pneumoniae at a concentration of 100 μg/mL, indicating strong antibacterial activity. The findings suggest Brassica juncea (L.) Czern seed encapsulated TiO2 NPs possesses excellent biological applications which can be explored for its application in pharmaceutical field.
