“…The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) image shows a dense population of spherical, or nearly spherical, shaped nanoparticles with sizes ranging from 13 to 20 nm ( Figure 3 a). As previously reported, the Energy Dispersive X-Ray (EDX) spectrum ( Figure 3 b) showed silver with a significant signal peak at ∼3 KeV [ 22 , 26 ]. The silver nanoparticles synthesized using the aqueous extracts of three different stages of ripened Capsicum annum (green, yellow, red) ranged between 30 and 80 nm, which was further confirmed by Atomic Force Microscopic images [ 9 ].…”

Metal nanoparticles, such as gold nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles, etc., have many benefits and have been in use for a very long time. Nevertheless, a number of concerns have been raised about the environmental impact and the possibility of exposure to various living systems at the moment. Thus, in this study, silver nanoparticles were synthesized by using plant gum from Bauhinia purpurea and characterization was done using UV—Visible Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy, X—ray Diffraction, etc. To determine the accumulation and toxic effects caused by the nanoparticles, Eudrilus eugeniae, Danio rerio, and their embryos were exposed to the synthesized silver nanoparticles and evaluated using microscopic observation, histology, and Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP—OES).

Nanoparticles usage are now emerging as hazardous nanopollutants due to inappropriate usage and improper disposal. Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPIONs) is a widely used nanoparticle with various applications. In this study, SPIONs was evaluated for its impact against Vigna radiata and Eudrilus eugeniae. SPIONs were synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method in presence of cobalt chloride. The produced SPIONs was characterized using UV-Visible Spectroscopy, SEM (Scanning electron microscopy), EDX (Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy), XRD (X-ray diffraction), TEM (Transmission electron microscopy), AFM (Atomic force microscopy), XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) and Zeta potential. The synthesized SPIONs were crystalline and monodispersed with size ranging between 15 nm and 20 nm. The seedlings of SPIONs treated Vigna radiata were found to have reduced root and shoot growth. The bioaccumulation of iron oxide in the treated plants was confirmed by ICP-OES (Inductively coupled plasma -optical emission spectrometry) analysis and Prussian blue staining. Cellular destruction and reduced reproduction rate were found in SPIONs exposed Eudrilus eugeniae and ICP-OES analysis of earthworm samples affirmed the bioaccumulation of SPIONs.

“…The characteristic peak at 3673 cm −1 indicates OH stretching, which is the characteristic peak for the glycosidic bonds present in the polysaccharides, and a broad spectrum at 3279 cm −1 was displayed in Moringa oleifera gum, indicating the presence of a carboxylic acid group. The peaks at 2930 and 2933 cm −1 for MO and AI gum were attributed to the C-H stretching vibration in alkanes [38], and the peaks found between 1300-1450 cm −1 indicated the presence of -CH 3 and -CH 2 bending [39]. Peaks at 1285 and 1234 cm −1 specified the presence of C-N stretching in amine groups.…”

Plant gums are bio-organic substances that are derived from the barks of trees. They are biodegradable and non-adverse complex polysaccharides that have been gaining usage in recent years due to a number of advantages they contribute to various applications. In this study, gum was collected from Moringa oleifera and Azadirachta indica trees, then dried and powdered. Characterizations of gum polysaccharides were performed using TLC, GC-MS, NMR, etc., and sugar molecules such as glucose and xylose were found to be present. Effects of the gums on Abelmoschus esculentus growth were observed through root growth, shoot growth, and biomass content. The exposure of the seeds to the plant gums led to bio stimulation in the growth of the plants. Poor quality soil was exposed to the gum polysaccharide, where the polysaccharide was found to improve soil quality, which was observed through soil analysis and SEM analysis of soil porosity and structure. Furthermore, the plant gums were also found to have bio-pesticidal activity against mealybugs, which showed certain interstitial damage evident through histopathological analysis.
