Green synthesis of nanoparticles is an emerging topic with many significant applications in environmental and biomedical fields. The main aim of green synthesis is the development of eco-friendly nanoparticles using biological materials like plants and microbes and thus, reducing the practice of utilizing toxic substances. Different plant-derived materials are regularly utilized to synthesise sustainable nanoparticles with almost comparable properties yet utilize less hazardous manufacturing processes. This review aims to update these green synthetic processes for developing nanoparticles.
Different dermatological disorders have different effects on the lives of patients. Recently microsponge formulations have been used to treat several dermatological complications. Microsponges are basically tiny sponge like spherical particles with porous surface having valuable and attractive effect on topical delivery. The side effect of the used drug can be reduced, bioavailability can be increased, and the drug release can be modified. Microsponges can be used in different bases like gel, lotion, ointment and even in powder form. Microsponges used in sunscreen gel are now very popular. Excessive UV exposure leads to different pathological conditions like skin burns, erythema, skin carcinogenesis, etc., The microsponge sunscreen gel protects our skin from all these skin problems and most importantly, with a very less amount of side effects compared to others. Moreover, microsponges are very much cost effective, easy to handle, can deliver minimum dose of drug and enhance the stability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
