Objective: The present report describes the green synthesis of Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) using Argemone maxicana leaf extract by an eco-friendly approach. Also, the in-vitro cytotoxicity of prepared ZnO NPs against the cardiac cell lines of Sahul India Catla catla fish (SICH) was studied. Methods: ZnO NPs were prepared by using Argemone maxicana leaf extract as reducing and stabilizing...

In this paper we have reported the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles using Penicillium sp. was isolated from the soil sample collected from Pallavakam beach of Chennai, Tamil Nadu India. When the fungal biomass was challenged with 1mM Silver nitrate (AgNO3) results in the change of solution color in to dark brown shows the formation of Silver nanoparticles(SNP).These Silver nanoparticles wer...

Vacuum evaporated films of GexSe80-xPb20 have been characterized by using optical spectroscopy (especially transmission and absorption spectra). The chalcogenide glass of GexSe80-xPb20 has been prepared by melt quenching technique. Thin films of GexSe80-xPb20 are deposited by vacuum thermal evaporation technique on highly clean glass substrates and their optical properties such as refractive in...

The metallic nanoparticles have great attention of Chemists, Physists, Biologists and Engineers who wish to use them for development of new generation nanodevices. In this present study silver nanoparticles were synthesized from aqueous silver nitrate (1mM) through a simple and ecofriendly route using leaf broth of Ocimum sanctum as reductant and stabilizer. The aqueous silver ions when exposed...

We test several convolution and deconvolution models on phase curves at small phase angles ð0:0011oao1:51Þ that have the highest phase angle sampling to date. These curves were provided by cameras onboard several NASA missions (Clementine/UVVIS, Galileo/SSI and Cassini/ISS) when the Sun had different apparent angular radii (a 1⁄4 0:2661, 0.0511, 0.0281). For the smallest phase angles, the brigh...

New mixed ligand complexes have been prepared by the reaction of Quinoline2-Carboxylic Acid (HL1) and 4,4 -dimethyl,2,2-Bipyridyl (L2) with Co(II),Ni(II) Cu(II), Zn(II), Pd(II) and Au(III) ions. The newly prepared complexes were isolated and characterized by (FT-IR) and (UVVis) spectroscopy, elemental analysis, flame atomic absorption technique, thermo gravimetric analysis, in addition to magne...
