Abstract:Background
Benincasa hispida, a commonly used vegetable in India and other tropical countries, is known for its nutritional and medicinal values. The gold nanoparticles synthesis (AuNPs) using phytochemicals has gained importance for its enhanced biocompatibility and bioactivity in biomedical applications. India has high incidence of oral cancer in the world due to high prevalence of tobacco chewing. The study evaluated the phytosynthesis of AuNPs from the aqueous extract of B. hispida and assessed its antic… Show more
