Abstract
In the present work, iron nanoparticles were synthesized in the α-Fe2O3 phase with the reduction of potassium hexachloroferrate(III) by using l-ascorbic acid as a reducing agent in the presence of an amphiphilic non-ionic polyethylene glycol surfactant in an aqueous solution. The synthesized α-Fe2O3 NPs were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, dynamic light scattering, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry. The powder X-ray diffraction analysis result confirmed the formation of α-Fe2O3 NPs, and the average crystallite size was found to be 45 nm. The other morphological studies suggested that α-Fe2O3 NPs were predominantly spherical in shape with a diameter ranges from 40 to 60 nm. The dynamic light scattering analysis revealed the zeta potential of α-Fe2O3 NPs as -28 ± 18 mV at maximum stability. The ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry analysis shows an absorption peak at 394 nm, which is attributed to their surface plasmon vibration. The cytotoxicity test of synthesized α-Fe2O3 NPs was investigated against human carcinoma A549 lung cancer cells, and the biological adaptability exhibited by α-Fe2O3 NPs has opened a pathway to biomedical applications in the drug delivery system. Our investigation confirmed that l-ascorbic acid-coated α-Fe2O3 NPs with calculated IC50 ≤ 30 μg/mL are the best suited as an anticancer agent, showing the promising application in the treatment of carcinoma A549 lung cancer cells.

Abstract
In the present study, a magnetic nanocomposite (magnetite Fe3O4 and hematite Fe2O3) has been successfully synthesized by the sol-gel method and coated with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) followed by conjugation of anti-diabetic drug metformin. Detailed structural and microstructural characterization of the nanocomposite (NP) and drug conjugated nanocomposite (NP-DC) are analyzed by the Rietveld refinement of respective XRD patterns, FTIR analysis, UV-Vis spectroscopy, SEM and TEM results. SEM and TEM image analyses reveal the spherical morphology and average size of NP, PVA coated nanoparticles (NP-PVA) and NP-DC samples, indicating a suitable size to be a nanocarrier. The biocompatibility of NP and NP-DC was carried out in NIH/3T3 and J774A. 1 cells. The enhanced activity of the drug, when conjugated with nanocomposite, is confirmed after the treatment of both the pure drug and NP-DC sample on the 18 h fasted normoglycemic and hyperglycemic mice. The blood glucose level of the mice is effectively decreased with the same concentration of the pure drug and NP-DC sample. It proves the increased activity of the NP-DC sample, as only 5 wt% drug is present that shows the same efficiency as the pure drug. This study suggests excellent biocompatibility and cytocompatibility of NP and NP-DC besides the critical property as a hypoglycemic agent. It is the first time approach of conjugating metformin with a magnetic nanocomposite for a significant increment of its hypoglycemic activity, which is very important to reduce the side effect of metformin for its prolonged use.

Abstract
In this present study, a hybrid Chi-Fe3O4 was prepared, characterised and evaluated for its antibacterial and antibiofilm potential against Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus marcescens bacterial pathogens. Intense peak around 260 nm in the ultraviolet-visible spectrum specify the formation of magnetite nanoparticles. Spherical-shaped particles with less agglomeration and particle size distribution of 3.78-46.40 nm were observed using transmission electron microscopy analysis and strong interaction of chitosan with the surface of magnetite nanoparticles was studied using field emission scanning microscopy (FESEM). X-ray diffraction analysis exhibited the polycrystalline and spinel structure configuration of the nanocomposite. Presence of Fe and O, C and Cl elements were confirmed using energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic analysis showed the reduction and formation of Chi-Fe3O4 nanocomposite. The antibacterial activity by deformation of the bacterial cell walls on treatment with Chi-Fe3O4 nanocomposite and its interaction was visualised using FESEM and the antibiofilm activity was determined using antibiofilm assay. In conclusion, this present study shows the green synthesis of Chi-Fe3O4 nanocomposite and evaluation of its antibacterial and antibiofilm potential, proving its significance in medical and biological applications.

Abstract
Melanoma is the most aggressive and lethal type of skin cancer, with a poor prognosis because of the potential for metastatic spread. The aim was to develop innovative powder formulations for the treatment of metastatic melanoma based on micro- and nanocarriers containing 5-fluorouracil (5FU) for pulmonary administration, aiming at local and systemic action. Therefore, two innovative inhalable powder formulations were produced by spray-drying using chondroitin sulfate as a structuring polymer: (a) 5FU nanoparticles obtained by piezoelectric atomization (5FU-NS) and (b) 5FU microparticles of the mucoadhesive agent Methocel™ F4M for sustained release produced by conventional spray drying (5FU-MS). The physicochemical and aerodynamic were evaluated in vitro for both systems, proving to be attractive for pulmonary delivery. The theoretical aerodynamic diameters obtained were 0.322 ± 0.07 µm (5FU-NS) and 1.138 ± 0.54 µm (5FU-MS). The fraction of respirable particles (FR%) were 76.84 ± 0.07% (5FU-NS) and 55.01 ± 2.91% (5FU-MS). The in vitro mucoadhesive properties exhibited significant adhesion efficiency in the presence of Methocel™ F4M. 5FU-MS and 5FU-NS were tested for their cytotoxic action on melanoma cancer cells (A2058 and A375) and both showed a cytotoxic effect similar to 5FU pure at concentrations of 4.3 and 1.7-fold lower, respectively.

Abstract
In the present study, a sustainable green chemistry approach was established to fabricate magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4NPs) using the aqueous fruit extract of edible C. guianensis (CGFE). Synthesized NPs were further confirmed with different high-throughput characterization techniques such as UV-visible spectroscopy, FT-IR, XPS, DLS and zeta potential analysis. Additionally, XRD, AFM, HRTEM and SQUID VSM demonstrate the generation of crystalline CGFe3O4NPs with mean diameter of 17 ± 10 nm. Interestingly, CGFe3O4NPs exhibit a stupendous bactericidal action against different human pathogens which depicts its antimicrobial value. A significant dose-dependent cytotoxic effect of CGFe3O4NPs was noticed against treated human hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG2).

Abstract
Kidney diseases are complicated and can be fatal. Dialysis and transplantation are the only survival solutions to the patients suffering from kidney failures. Both hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis are risky, due to the possibility of infection and these are expensive and time consuming. The development of simple and reliable technique for the clearance of creatinine and urea from the body is an important part of biotechnology. We have synthesized an iron nanoparticle (INP) and studied its binding with creatinine and urea. The DLS, TEM, AFM, FT-IR and Powder-XRD studies demonstrate strong binding of creatinine and urea to the nanoparticles. This finding may be helpful if it is used in the dialysis technologies. The proposed method may substantially decrease dialysis time and improve its quality in terms of urea and creatinine clearances.

Abstract
Iron oxide nanoparticles show great promise in bio-applications like drug delivery, magnetic resonance imaging, and hyperthermia. This is because the size of these magnetic nanoparticles is comparable to biomolecules and the particles can be removed via normal iron metabolic pathways. These nanoparticles are also attractive for industrial separations and catalysis because they can be magnetically recovered. However, the size, morphology, and surface coating of the iron oxide nanoparticles greatly affect their magnetic properties and biocompatibility. Therefore, nanoparticles with tunable characteristics are desirable. This chapter elaborates the synthesis techniques for the formation of iron oxide nanoparticles with good control over reproducibility, surface and magnetic properties, and morphology. The well-known co-precipitation and thermal decomposition methods are detailed in this chapter. The surface modification routes and characterization of these nanoparticles are also discussed. The chapter will be particularly useful for engineering/science graduate students and/or faculty interested in synthesizing iron oxide nanoparticles for specific research applications.

Abstract
Cancer continues to be one of the biggest threats to the human civilization because there is no cure of it. Small heterocyclic molecule with low molecular weight and novel structural feature is therapeutically highly demanding. These molecules have the capability to disrupt signaling pathways leading to anticancer activities. Therefore, the search for new anticancer agents continues to draw attention to the research community. In this study, a small triazolo-benzoxazepine scaffolds was synthesized using a one-pot four-step synthetic methodology involving click reaction. Small libraries of 12 compounds were successfully synthesized and screened them against different cancer cell lines. Low micromolar anticancer activity was recorded using MTT assay, and further confirmation of cell death was obtained by phase contrast, fluorescent, and confocal images.
