Biogenic silica production occurs at mild conditions with greater control of pore size, shape, and micropatterning than is possible with typical industrial sol-gel methods, providing inspiration for potential alternative routes to silica synthesis. Researchers have implicated the amine moieties, histidine and polylysine, on proteins isolated from sponges and diatoms as catalysts for biogenic si...

This review discusses recent advances in the synthesis, characterization and toxicity of metal oxide nanoparticles obtained mainly through biogenic (green) processes. The in vitro and in vivo toxicities of these oxides are discussed including a consideration of the factors important for safe use of these nanomaterials. The toxicities of different metal oxide nanoparticles are compared. The impo...

biogenic amines (ba) are nitrogenous compounds that possess biological activity. the source of production is the microbial decarboxylation of amino acids. this compounds are found in various types of cheese. the aim of this work was to evaluate the ba content of some traditional cheeses in west azerbaijan province iran. for this purpose, 70 samples of koopeh, 10 samples of lighvan and 5 samples...

In the present paper, facile synthesis of Ag@ZnO core-shell nanocomposites is reported where zinc oxide is coated on biogenic silver nanoparticles synthesized using Andrographis paniculata and Aloe vera leaf extract. Structural features of as synthesized nanocomposites are characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy, XRD, and FTIR. Morphology of the above core-shell nanocomposites is investigated ...

Materials and Methods: The synthesis of silver nanoparticles by plant part of Croton bonplandianum was carried out.  The for...

This work investigates the potential for harnessing the association of bacterial proteins to biogenic selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) to control the size distribution and the morphology of the resultant SeNPs. We conducted a proteomic study and compared proteins associated with biogenic SeNPs produced by E. coli to chemically synthesized SeNPs as well as magnetite nanoparticles. We identified fo...

The Chenopodium album extracts served as a capping agent in the present work to synthesize Bi2O3 Nps. synthesized nanoparticles were confirmed by various spectroscopic techniques. Nano-structured was measured have mean size of 79.99nm. Anti-fungal activity Nps also evaluated. been shown impressive antifungal efficacy against variety fungal species. It's powerful anti-fungal medication that outp...
