Bio-inspired synthesis of PbO nanoparticles (NPs) via an aqueous extract of Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) leaves

Anticancer Effects of Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) Extract and Rosemary Extract Polyphenols

Cancer cells display enhanced growth rates and a resistance to apoptosis. The ability of cancer cells to evade homeostasis and proliferate uncontrollably while avoiding programmed cell death/apoptosis is acquired through mutations to key signaling molecules, which regulate pathways involved in cell proliferation and survival. Compounds of plant origin, including food components, have attracted ...

Antibacterial Effects of Biosynthesized Silver Nanoparticles Using Aqueous Leaf Extract of Rosmarinus Officinalis L

5.1 Abstract In this study, we demonstrate a green approach for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using aqueous leaf extract of Rosmarinus officinalis under ambient conditions. The uniqueness of this method lies in its rapid synthesis within 15 min. The synthesized AgNPs were characterized using various analytical tecchniques. The synthesized particles were found to be 14.20 ̶ 42.42 ...

Mutagenic and antimutagenic effects of aqueous extract of rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) on meristematic cells of Allium cepa.

Polyphenolic compounds present in rosemary were found to have antioxidant properties, anticarcinogenic activity, and to increase the detoxification of pro-carcinogens. The aim of the study was to determine the effect the aqueous extract of rosemary (AER) on mutagenicity induced by methylmethane sulfonate in meristematic cells of Allium cepa, as well as to describe its mode of action. Anti-mutag...

Kinetic study of pilot-scale supercritical CO2 extraction of rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) leaves

Synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles via flaxseed aqueous extract

Synthesis of widespread types of nanoparticles including metal oxides by plant extract is considered as alternative chemical synthesis methods. ZnO nanoparticles are synthesized by a biological process using flaxseeds (Linum usitatissimum L.) extract. The biosynthesized ZnO NPs were characterized by XRD and SEM, EDX, DLS spectroscopy. According to the SEM images, the synthesized nanopa...
