Biogenic gold nanoparticles synthesis mediated by Mangifera indica seed aqueous extracts exhibits antibacterial, anticancer and anti-angiogenic properties

Green biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles using Chenopodium formosanum shell extract and analysis of the particles' antibacterial properties

“…The antibacterial activity of the optimized Au NPs was analyzed through inhibition of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus growth by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method . The bacterial strains culture solution grown at 37 °C for 24 h was adjusted to 1 × 10 6 CFU mL −1 in Luria–Bertani broth.…”

“…Furthermore, Au NPs are associated with substantial scientific contributions based on applications of these particles in diverse domains, including cosmetics, biomolecular imaging, cancer therapy, and drug delivery. Additionally, Au NPs have been used as catalytic agents and in photovoltaic cells and electronic conductors …”

“…Green chemistry can be used for the synthesis of Au NPs and presents an economical and environment friendly alternative to approaches in which harmful chemicals are used as reducing agents or surfactants . Green methods for synthesizing Au NPs involving the use of bacteria, yeast, fungi, and plant extracts have been investigated . Among these methods, plant extract synthesis is relatively economical, sustainable, and easy to scale up, and thus serves as a simple and fast alternative to conventional chemical and physical methods .…”

Among these methods, plant extract synthesis is relatively economical, sustainable, and easy to scale up, and thus serves as a simple and fast alternative to conventional chemical and physical methods . In plant‐based synthesis of Au NPs, crude plant extract components such as proteins, phenols, flavonoids, terpenoids, carbohydrates, ascorbic acid, alkaloids, and reductase can function as reducing and stabilizing agents of Au NPs .…”

“…Among these methods, plant extract synthesis is relatively economical, sustainable, and easy to scale up, and thus serves as a simple and fast alternative to conventional chemical and physical methods . In plant‐based synthesis of Au NPs, crude plant extract components such as proteins, phenols, flavonoids, terpenoids, carbohydrates, ascorbic acid, alkaloids, and reductase can function as reducing and stabilizing agents of Au NPs . Reports have proposed that the size and shape of synthesized Au NPs can be controlled by regulating synthesis parameters such as pH, temperature, time, metal ions concentration, and plant extract concentration …”
