“…This can be explained by the insufficiency of the phytochemicals in the aqueous leaf extract of Lupinus albus , which are responsible for acting as capping agents and stabilizing the nanoparticles. The size of the particles exhibits a positive correlation with the precursor concentration, as supported by previous studies. − …”

Dye effluents discharged from various industries contribute to environmental contamination, making their treatment highly necessary. Infectious diseases also pose a threat to public health worldwide. Nanomaterials have promising features and are potential candidates for overcoming the problems of drug resistance in microbes and environmental pollution. Therefore, this study aimed to synthesize zinc oxide (ZnO) and magnesiumdoped zinc oxide (Mg-doped ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) using the plant extract of Lupinus albus for applications in photocatalysis and antimicrobial activity. A sample of Lupinus albus leaves was collected from Motta, in the eastern Gojjam zone of Ethiopia. The leaves were air-dried and then ground into a powder. The powdered plant material was extracted using distilled water. The ZnO and Mg-doped ZnO NPs were synthesized using 0.1 M Zn(NO 3 ) 2 •6H 2 O, 7.5% 0.1 M Mg(NO 3 )2.6H 2 O, and 10 mL of the leaf extract. The nanoparticles (NPs) were characterized using UV−vis, FT-IR, XRD, and SEM. The average crystallite sizes of ZnO and Mg-doped ZnO NPs were determined using the Debye−Scherrer formula and were found to be 28.1 and 34.4 nm, respectively. The antimicrobial activity of the synthesized NPs was evaluated against four bacterial strains (Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus, Salmonella typhi, and Staphylococcus aureus) and one fungal strain (Candida albicans) by using the agar disk diffusion method. The Mg-doped ZnO NPs exhibited significant antimicrobial activity, with a maximum zone of inhibition measuring 24 and 22 mm against Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhi, respectively. The photocatalytic activity of ZnO and Mg-doped ZnO NPs was investigated by studying the degradation of methylene blue (MB) dye under sunlight irradiation for 120 min. The results showed that Mg-doped ZnO NPs exhibited higher photocatalytic activity (99.6%) than ZnO NPs (94.1%). In conclusion, the synthesized NPs could serve as viable alternatives for antimicrobial drugs and photocatalysts to mitigate the pollution of the environment caused by organic dyes.

A green sustainable strategy for biosynthesis of ZnONPs and chitosan nanoparticles (ZnONPs: 20–25 nm and CSNPs: 70–90 nm) has been developed, their potential applications in multifunctional finishing of cotton and viscose fabrics to impart anti-crease, anti-UV and antibacterial functions using citric acid/Na-hypophosphite CA (15 g/L)/SHP (15 g/L), as CH2O-free ester-crosslinking system and the pad-dry-cure method. The obtained results signify that the extent of improvement in the imparted functional properties is governed by type of cellulosic substrate, kind and concentration of nano-additive as well as type of bio-functional additive, namely, L-ascorbic acid or vanillin (20 g/L each). Moreover, the best results show that using CSNPs (2.5 g/L)/ZnONPs (15 g/L), as an eco-friendly two component mixture, brought about an enhancement in both chemical and functional properties of treated substrates which can be ranked as follows: nitrogen content (N%): viscose (1.818) > cotton (1.592); metal content (%): viscose (1.35) > cotton (1.24); WRA°: cotton (196) > viscose (165); anti-UV (UPF): cotton (47) > viscose (40); anti-S. aureus (R%): viscose (97) > cotton (94) and anti-E. coli (R%): viscose (92) > cotton (89), keeping other parameters constant. Major characteristics of the so-prepared nanoparticles as well as developed cellulosic fabrics were analyzed by FTIR, TEM, SEM and EDX techniques, as well as %N and %Zn content analysis. Durability to wash was evaluated and fabrics modification/functionalization, mechanism was also proposed.
