[PMID: 38707360 PMCID: PMC11066322 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e29865] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2024] [Revised: 04/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Prevention and management of water pollution are becoming a great challenge in the present scenario. Different conventional methods like carbon adsorption, ion exchange, chemical precipitation, evaporation, and biological treatments remove water pollutants. Nowadays, the requirement for effective, non-toxic and safe waste management strategies is very high. Nanomaterials have been explored in various fields due to their unique characteristics. Green synthesis of nanomaterial is becoming more popular due to their safety, non-toxicity, and ease of scale-up technology. Metal nanoparticles can be synthesized using a green synthesis method using biological sources provided by eco-friendly, non-hazardous nanomaterials with superior properties to bulk metals. Hence, this study has designed a green synthesis of magnetic (cobalt oxide) and noble (gold) nanoparticles from the fresh flowers of Clitoria ternatea. The flavonoids and polyphenols in the extract decreased the energy band gap of cobalt oxide and gold nanoparticles; hence, the capping of the natural constituents in Clitoria ternatea helped form stable metal nanoparticles. The cobalt oxide and gold nanoparticles are evaluated for their potential for eliminating organic pollutants from industrial effluent. The novelty of this present work represents the application of cobalt oxide nanoparticles in the removal of organic pollutants and a comparative study of the catalytic behaviour of both metal nanoparticles. The degradation of bromophenol blue, bromocresol green, and 4-nitrophenol in the presence of gold nanoparticles was completed in 120, 45, and 20 min with rate constants of 3.7 × 10-3/min, 6.9 × 10-3/min, and 16.5 × 10-3/min, respectively. Similarly, the photocatalysis of bromophenol blue, bromocresol green, and 4-nitrophenol in the presence of cobalt oxide nanoparticles was achieved in 60, 90, and 40 min with rate constants of 2.3 × 10-3/min, 1.8 × 10-3/min, and 1.7 × 10-3/min, respectively. The coefficient of correlation (R2) values justify that the degradation of organic pollutants follows first-order kinetics. The significance of the study is to develop green nanomaterials that can be used efficiently to remove organic pollutants in wastewater using a cost-effective method with minimal toxicity to aquatic animals. It has proved to be useful in environmental pollution management.

Abstract
Plant extract-mediated green synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) is currently gaining significant interest in the field of nanotechnology. In this study, AuNPs were synthesized using an aqueous extract of Andaliman fruit (Zanthoxylum acanthopodium DC.). The formation of AuNPs was confirmed by observing the color change of the solution from clear to cherry red. The reaction parameters, namely the extract concentration and the ratio of the mixture of the extract with HAuCl4 solution, were optimized for the AuNPs biosynthesis. The gold nanoparticles were characterized using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer, SEM-EDS, and particle size analyzer. The characterization suggested that AuNPs had a maximum wavelength ranging of 540–559 nm, with spherical crystals morphology where the highest component was gold at 36.01% and the size below 100 nm on average. The antioxidant activity of the synthesized AuNPs was determined using the DPPH method. It showed that the highest free radical scavenging activity was 83%, given by 20 ppm AuNPs.

Abstract
Ultrasound (US) demonstrates remarkable potential in synthesising nanomaterials, particularly nanobiomaterials targeted towards biomedical applications. This review briefly introduces existing top-down and bottom-up approaches for nanomaterials synthesis and their corresponding synthesis mechanisms, followed by the expounding of US-driven nanomaterials synthesis. Subsequently, the pros and cons of sono-nanotechnology and its advances in the synthesis of nanobiomaterials are drawn based on recent works. US-synthesised nanobiomaterials have improved properties and performance over conventional synthesis methods and most essentially eliminate the need for harsh and expensive chemicals. The sonoproduction of different classes and types of nanobiomaterials such as metal and superparamagnetic nanoparticles (NPs), lipid- and carbohydrate-based NPs, protein microspheres, microgels and other nanocomposites are broadly categorised based on the physical and/or chemical effects induced by US. This review ends on a good note and recognises US-driven synthesis as a pragmatic solution to satisfy the growing demand for nanobiomaterials, nonetheless some technical challenges are highlighted.

[PMID: 34835776 PMCID: PMC8623890 DOI: 10.3390/nano11113012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2021] [Revised: 11/04/2021] [Accepted: 11/05/2021] [Indexed: 01/14/2023]
Abstract
The present study reported biofabrication of flower-like SnO2 nanoparticles using Pometia pinnata leaf extract. The study focused on the physicochemical characteristics of the prepared SnO2 nanoparticles and its activity as photocatalyst and antibacterial agent. The characterization was performed by XRD, SEM, TEM, UV-DRS and XPS analyses. Photocatalytic activity of the nanoparticles was examined on bromophenol blue photooxidation; meanwhile, the antibacterial activity was evaluated against Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes. XRD and XPS analyses confirmed the single tetragonal SnO2 phase. The result from SEM analysis indicates the flower like morphology of SnO2 nanoparticles, and by TEM analysis, the nanoparticles were seen to be in uniform spherical shapes with a diameter ranging from 8 to 20 nm. SnO2 nanoparticles showed significant photocatalytic activity in photooxidation of bromophenol blue as the degradation efficiency reached 99.93%, and the photocatalyst exhibited the reusability as the degradation efficiency values were insignificantly changed until the fifth cycle. Antibacterial assay indicated that the synthesized SnO2 nanoparticles exhibit an inhibition of tested bacteria and showed a potential to be applied for further environmental and medical applications.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) represent one of the most explored categories of nanomaterials for new and improved biomaterials and biotechnologies, with impressive use in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry, anti-infective therapy and wound care, food and the textile industry. Their extensive and versatile applicability relies on the genuine and easy-tunable properties of nanosilver, including remarkable physicochemical behavior, exceptional antimicrobial efficiency, anti-inflammatory action and antitumor activity. Besides commercially available and clinically safe AgNPs-based products, a substantial number of recent studies assessed the applicability of nanosilver as therapeutic agents in augmented and alternative strategies for cancer therapy, sensing and diagnosis platforms, restorative and regenerative biomaterials. Given the beneficial interactions of AgNPs with living structures and their nontoxic effects on healthy human cells, they represent an accurate candidate for various biomedical products. In the present review, the most important and recent applications of AgNPs in biomedical products and biomedicine are considered.
