“…The SPR pattern depends on the size, the shape of the metal particles, and the dielectric properties of the medium used to synthesize the NPs, stabilizing molecules on the surface of the NPs. [ 51,52 ] A single plasma resonance peak at 385 nm for MgONPs was observed upon spectrometric analysis (Figure 1), which confirmed the reduction of Magnesium chloride to MgONPs.…”

Magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgONPs) synthesized by efficient green approach have unique physiochemical properties. In this study, MgONPs are synthesized with bract extract of Musa acuminate, an agro waste. The surface plasmon resonance at 450 nm in UV spectrum and FTIR peaks at 601 and 890 cm−1 confirmed the presence of MgONPs. XRD pattern revealed high crystallinity of the nanoparticles with an intense orientation peak at 111, and the size was 13 nm. The particles were spherical with an average size of 24.85 nm. The elemental percentage of magnesium and oxygen were 68.55% and 31.45%. MgONPs had antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Vibrio harveyi, Vibrio parahemolyticus, and Staphylococcus aureus with MIC, 6 μg/mL. The IC50 value for MCF‐7 cell was 113.56 μg/mL, and the normal cell line was 785.69 μg/mL. The NPs also exhibited hemolytic features in a dose‐dependent manner. The MgONPs exhibited photocatalytic degradation of methyl violet, CBB G‐250, and malachite green in 60 min duration. MgONPs had promising antibacterial, cytotoxic, hemolytic, photocatalytic, and seed germination activity. They have the potential to serve as an additive in a variety of biological applications.

In vitro culture is not only known for the mass propagation of medicinal plants, it can also be used to boost the accumulation of useful metabolites. This work was aimed at studying the potential of elicitation on the accumulation of antioxidant secondary metabolites in different Musa species accessions. Shoot cultures of selected six Musa spp. accessions were micropropagated on Murashige and Skoog mineral-based culture medium, supplemented with indole-3-acetic acid and 6-benzylaminopurine. Different temperatures (15, 20 and 26 °C), doses of sucrose (30–50 g/L) and jasmonic acid concentrations (JA, 50–200 µM) were used as elicitors in the culture medium. High-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) coupled with effect-directed analysis (EDA) was used to compare and characterize all the 71 Musa spp. samples from the selected accessions and to reveal compound zones with antioxidant, antidiabetic and anticholinesterase activities. All elicitation and plant tissue culture experiments increased the total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant activity of the selected Musa spp. accessions. Extracts from plants grown at 20 °C gave the highest TPC and antioxidant activity. Addition of JA (200 µM) and higher sucrose contents (40 g/L or 45 g/L) increased the TPC and antioxidant activity as well. Not only compounds with antioxidant, but also antidiabetic and anticholinesterase activities were detected in the elicited accessions. The system presented in this study could serve as a sustainable, consistent and reliable alternative means of bioactive metabolites supply for the production of biopharmaceuticals.
