Green protocols for the synthesis of nanoparticles have been attracting a lot of attention because they are eco-friendly, rapid, and cost-effective. Nickel and nickel oxide nanoparticles have been synthesized by green routes and characterized for impact of green chemistry on the properties and biological effects of nanoparticles in the last five years. Green synthesis, properties, and applicati...

Polymer-coated noble metal nanoparticles are currently of particular interest to investiga‐ tors in the fields of nanobiomedicine and fundamental biomaterials. These materials not only exhibit imaging properties in response to stimuli but also efficiently deliver various drugs and therapeutic genes. Even though a large number of polymer-coated noble metal nanoparticles have been fabricated over...

Bianco Prevot (eds.), Soluble Bio-based Substances Isolated From Urban Wastes, SpringerBriefs in Green Chemistry for Sustainability, DOI 10.1007/978-3-319-14744-4_2 Abstract Soluble bio-based substances (SBO) extracted from urban bio-wastes have similar chemical properties to humic substances (HS) present in natural waters and soils. Therefore, SBO are also...

α-amino nitriles are synthesized in a one-pot, three-component coupling of aldehydes (or ketones), aniline, and trimethylsilyl cyanide using a catalytic amount of choline chloride.2zncl2 as a bio lewis acidic ionic liquid. mild lewis acidic characteristic of this ionic liquid allows efficient synthesis of α-amino nitriles from acid sensitive aldehydes.

objective: dendrimers are three-dimensional nanostructures that have numerous applications in medicine, including drug delivery and imaging. although anionic dendrimer polyethylene glycol–citrate has a high potential to increase solubility of water-insoluble drugs and drug delivery, its multi-step synthesis procedure is time consuming. in addition, toxic substances such as dichloromethane are u...

Synthesis of nanoparticles using green methods with study their propertie is one great researchers’ concerns in fields pharmaceutical and biomedical products. The present paper aiming to use an eco-friendly route used for biosynthesis gold (AuNPs) C. Papaya seeds as both reducing stabilizing agent. Study seed contents showed many compounds which analyzed via qualitative, quantitative GC-MS anal...

Schwertmannite, a kind of iron oxyhydrosulfate mineral, can removal arsenic(III) from arsenic(III)-bearing groundwater by the adsorption process. In this study, schwertmannite was bio-synthesized by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans LX5 in shaking flasks (160 rpm) containing a 0.16 mol/L FeSO4 liquid solution. After bio-synthesis, 25.5% of the bio-synthesized schwertmannite adhered to the reactor ...

A green low-cost and reproducible yeast mediated synthesis of silver nanoparticles is reported. The synthesis is performed at room temperature. X-ray and transmission electron microscopy analyses are performed to ascertain the formation of Ag nanoparticles. Nanoparticles almost spherical in shape having a size of 6-20 nm are found.
