Plant‐mediated synthesis of silver‐doped zinc oxide nanoparticles and evaluation of their antimicrobial activity against bacteria cause tooth decay

Abstract: In this research, silver-doped zinc oxide (SdZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized in an environmental-friendly manner. The synthesized NPs were identified by UV-vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Finally, the antimicrobial activity of synthesized ZnO and SdZnO NPs was performed. It was observed that by doping silver, the size of ZnO NPs was changed. By adding silver to ZnO NPs, the antimicrobial effect of ZnO NPs was improved. Antibacterial test against gram… Show more

“…It is a very significant medicinal plant with well-known therapeutic potential. Green synthesis is the most effective way when compared to physical and chemical methods [42]. Both synthesis processes, despite their efficiency, have some shortcomings, for example, high costs, high energy needs, and the creation of toxic hazardous waste materials [43].…”

“…Current research in the biosynthesis of nanometals using plants has started a new era for the production of nanoparticles with fast and non‐toxic methods (Ali et al, 2022; Mortezagholi et al, 2022; Saravanan et al, 2018). Plants (especially plant extracts) can reduce metal ions (Akbarizadeh et al, 2022; Sadeghi, Alijani, et al, 2022; Vidhya et al, 2021).…”

“…Active nanotech-based research has yielded several new advancements with wide-ranging applications [ 14 , 15 ]. New therapeutic efforts have been concentrated on the design of nanocarriers like polymeric nanoparticles [ 16 , 17 ], inorganic nanoparticles [ 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 ], green synthesized NPs [ 22 , 23 , 24 ], liposomes [ 25 ], nanofibers [ 26 ], hydrogels [ 27 , 28 , 29 ], Niosomes [ 30 , 31 , 32 ], and microemulsions [ 33 , 34 ] to transport therapeutic and diagnostic agents. In light of this fact, the above-mentioned nanoparticles (NPs) have attracted much attention thanks to their relatively high drug loading ability, lower or no systematic toxicity, controlled drug release, extended blood circulation time, capability of targeted delivery, and physical–chemical stability [ 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 ].…”
