Facile preparation of Au nanoparticles mediated by Foeniculum Vulgare aqueous extract and investigation of the anti-human breast carcinoma effects

Tackling breast cancer with gold nanoparticles: twinning synthesis and particle engineering with efficacy

“…80 Seeds of Foeniculum vulgare were used by to prepare 17-20 nm AuNPs which exhibited dose-dependent cytotoxicity against ZR 75-30, T47D, and HCC1187 BC cell lines without producing any cytotoxicity on the normal cell (HUVEC). 81 Root diverse plant-derived materials and their active constituents explored for AuNP synthesis. 2.3.3.…”

“… 80 Seeds of Foeniculum vulgare were used by Chen et al (2022) to prepare 17–20 nm AuNPs which exhibited dose-dependent cytotoxicity against ZR 75-30, T47D, and HCC1187 BC cell lines without producing any cytotoxicity on the normal cell (HUVEC). 81 Root extracts of Terminalia mantaly were used to prepare AuNPs which were found to be cytotoxic against colon (Caco-2), MCF-7 and hepatocarcinoma (HepG2) cell lines. 82 Apart from leaves, flowers, and roots, other plant parts like stems, bark, fruit, peel, seeds, and nutshells or sometimes whole plant extracts have been used to synthesise AuNPs.…”

Investigating the anti-streptococcal biofilm effect of ssDNA aptamer-silver nanoparticles complex on a titanium-based substrate

“…The MTT assay is a test to check for cell viability or the toxicity of drugs or other supplements on the cell, differentiating between living and dead cells by affecting intracellular organs. 58 MTT assay, which stands for MTT 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, is a colorimetric method. 59 For this purpose, MTT was done on the MCF7 (breast cancer cell line) growing cells in the logarithmic phase.…”

Green Synthesis and Characterization of Silver Nanoparticles (AgNPs) and L-cysteine-capped AgNPs with Foeniculum vulgare seed extract for Colorimetric Hg2+ Detection

“…Foeniculum vulgare contains proteins, fats, minerals, fibers, carbohydrates, and phytochemical compounds [9]. The phytochemical compounds such as amino acids, volatile compounds, fatty acid, and phenolics, flavonoids play important roles in reduction of silver ion (Ag 1+ ) to zerovalent silver (AgNPs) due to their strong antioxidant effects.…”
