Plectranthus amboinicus leaf extract–assisted biosynthesis of ZnO nanoparticles and their photocatalytic activity

Green biosynthesis and characterization of zinc oxide nanoparticles usingCorymbia citriodoraleaf extract and their photocatalytic activity

“…Weaker bands observed at 2955, 777 and 633 cm −1 can be assigned to -C-H stretch (alkanes), C-H (aromatics) and -C=C-H (alkynes). The absorption peaks at 1520 and 1431 cm −1 can be attributed the C=C bending and C-C stretching of aromatic rings, respectively (28,29). The peak at 1053 cm −1 assigned to the C-N stretching mode in aliphatic amines (30,31).…”

Enhancing the magnetic and antibacterial properties of ZnO nanopowders through Mn+Co doping

“…Among these semiconductors, zinc oxide (ZnO) is one of the most favorable semiconductors for producing DMS due to its desirable properties [4]. Especially, nanostrctured ZnO materials are good candidates for use in functional devices, antibacterial treatment, photocatalyst, targeted drug delivery agents, anticorrosion coatings and spintronic devices because of their low toxicity, biocompatibility, bio-safety and high electron mobility [5][6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

A Green Strategy to Synthesize Environment Friendly Metal Oxide Nanoparticles for Potential Applications – A Review

“…Every part of the plant is used to synthesize NPs [56]. Plectranthus amboinicus leaf extract belonging to Lamiaceae family acts as a reducing agent for gold NPs [57]. Pongamia pinnata has biological active compounds to stabilize the NPs [17].…”
