Plant-mediated synthesis of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles using Alnus nepalensis D. Don for biological applications
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: of 0.39 mg/mL and 0.78 mg/mL, respectively. In addition, the prepared ZnO nanoparticles showed toxicity against brine shrimp nauplii of LC₅₀ 16.59 μg/mL. The results of this study impart that plant-assisted synthesized ZnO nanoparticles possess significant antibacterial properties that reduce oxidative stress in human cells, ultimately contributing to cancer prevention.
