“…These have been investigated to produce more stable, soluble, biocompatible, and size-controlled NPs with desired shapes such as spherical, nanoflowers, nanotubes, and nanowires. Several chemical routes such as sol–gel, − co-precipitations, hydrothermal, sonochemical, microwave-assisted, physical routes as spray pyrolysis, chemical reduction, ,− thermal decompositions, and green synthesis as a biological route were used for the synthesis of metal NPs. Many researchers have successfully synthesized iron-based NPs for their application in in vitro and in vivo analysis − and obtained good results, i.e.…”

In the present work, iron nanoparticles were synthesized in the α-Fe 2 O 3 phase with the reduction of potassium hexachloroferrate(III) by using l -ascorbic acid as a reducing agent in the presence of an amphiphilic non-ionic polyethylene glycol surfactant in an aqueous solution. The synthesized α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, dynamic light scattering, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and ultraviolet–visible spectrophotometry. The powder X-ray diffraction analysis result confirmed the formation of α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs, and the average crystallite size was found to be 45 nm. The other morphological studies suggested that α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs were predominantly spherical in shape with a diameter ranges from 40 to 60 nm. The dynamic light scattering analysis revealed the zeta potential of α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs as −28 ± 18 mV at maximum stability. The ultraviolet–visible spectrophotometry analysis shows an absorption peak at 394 nm, which is attributed to their surface plasmon vibration. The cytotoxicity test of synthesized α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs was investigated against human carcinoma A549 lung cancer cells, and the biological adaptability exhibited by α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs has opened a pathway to biomedical applications in the drug delivery system. Our investigation confirmed that l -ascorbic acid-coated α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs with calculated IC 50 ≤ 30 μg/mL are the best suited as an anticancer agent, showing the promising application in the treatment of carcinoma A549 lung cancer cells.

Here, in the present study, silver nanoparticles (SNPs) in the size range 6–10 nm have been synthesized by a chemical reduction method using nicotinamide (NTA), an anti-inflammatory agent, and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), a good stabilizing agent, to preparing the nanoparticles in the 6–10 nm size range. Kinetic studies on the formation of SNPs have been performed spectrophotometrically at 410 nm (strong plasmon band) in aqueous medium as a function of [AgNO 3 ], [NTA], [NaOH], and [CTAB]. The plot of ln( A ∞ – A t ) versus time exhibited a straight line and the pseudo-first-order rate constants of different variables were calculated from its slope. On the basis of experimental findings, a plausible mechanism was proposed for the formation of SNPs colloid. From the mechanism, it is proved that the reduction of silver ions proceeded through the formation of silver oxide in colloidal form by their reaction with hydroxide ions and NTA after performing their function and readily undergo hydrolysis to form nicotinic acid as a hydrolysis product with the release of ammonia gas. The preliminary characterization of the SNPs was carried out by using a UV–visible spectrophotometer. The detailed characterization of SNPs was also carried out using other experimental techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). SNPs show a remarkable catalytic activity of up to 90% for the reduction of the cationic dye methylene blue.

Transition metal oxides have gathered momentum among the scientific community on account of their peculiar procession in physico-chemical, opto-electronic, magnetic, electrochemical, and biological attributes resulting from anisotropic charge distribution of partly filled d-orbitals, non-stoichiometric behaviour, and diverse oxidation states of the cations. The current work emphasize on the systematic synthesis and characterization of pure and zinc (Zn) incorporated nickel oxide (NiO) nanoparticles in varying concentrations ZnxNi1−xO (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3) via a scalable sol-gel approach assisting citric acid (C6H8O7) as a congealing factor. A series of extensive analyses were executed to investigate the structural, opto-electrical, and magnetic characteristics of prepared nanoparticles. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) studies confirmed the face-centered cubic structure of as-synthesized samples and the corresponding crystallite size is found to decrease with an increasing dopant concentration as estimated from the Scherrer method. Scanning electron microscopy studies portrayed the spherical structure and porous nature of NiO nanoparticles. Particle size calculated from SEM shows the decreasing trend with dopant discrepancy which is in accordance with crystallite size measured from XRD results. Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectra revealed the presence of estimated molecular assembly in synthesized samples. The cubic configuration and the presence of functional groups existing in synthesized nanoparticles were endorsed from Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) spectra. The optical absorption spectrum examined from UltraViolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy evaluates the energy bandgap and it is noticed to increase from 2.48 to 2.87 eV affirming the Burstein Moss shift. The energy dispersion of optical parameters plays a crucial contribution in optical materials pursuant to its prominence in optical communications and in fabricating novel devices for spectral dispersion. Optical and energy dispersion parameters evaluated from Wemple-DiDomenico (WDD) model and non-linear optical parameters were deliberated from optical studies. Urbach energy and another pivotal optical criterion highly correlated with the bandgap energy anchored in the fabrication of optoelectronic devices were assessed. The electrical characteristics such as dielectric constant, loss, and conductivity exhibited by pure and Zn doped nickel oxide nanoparticles were reported. Molecular electronic polarizability assessed through elementary solid-state parameters is in better concurrence with diverse relations like Clausius-Mossotti, Lorentz-Lorent, bulk modulus, optical electronegativity, energy band gap. The pore size distribution of substance matrix and the associated surface area were elucidated from Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis. Dispersive magnetic properties and two pivotal parameters were derived from the Law of Approach to Saturation (LAS) operandi. Further, microbial cell mechanism was illustrated through nano-architecture design, and the antibacterial and antifungal activity encountered by undoped and zinc doped NiO nanoparticles against different microbial strains were deeply discussed for pilot production of antimicrobial agents.
