Aim: This study presents a novel green synthesis approach for successfully fabricating silver-doped palladium nanoclusters (Ag-Pd NCs) using the aqueous leaf extract of Strobilanthes kunthiana as a reducing and stabilizing agent. Background: The environmentally benign method offers a sustainable alternative to conventional chemical synthesis, circumventing hazardous chemicals and minimizing the generation of toxic b Read More

Introduction: Silver nanoparticles were biologically synthesized from the leaf and seed extract of Balanites aegyptiaca against diabetes. Method: The silver nanoparticles were characterized using UV-visible spectroscopy, FTIR, SEM, TEM, zeta potential and dynamic light scattering for size distribution. The finding proved the nanosize and spherical shapes of the nanoparticles. In-vitro antidiabetic and cytotoxic activities of th Read More

The common skin disorder known as facial hyperpigmentation is caused by an uneven distribution of melanin, which leaves the face with dark areas or spots. Numerous factors, such as inflammation, hormonal fluctuations, and sun exposure, might contribute to this condition. Chemical peels, laser therapy, and topical whitening agents are examples of traditional treatments for facial hyperpigmentation. On the other han Read More

A high percentage of the applied chemicals on farmlands find their way into the water bodies and groundwater through agricultural runoff and leaching/percolation. Therefore, multiple remediation techniques need to be employed to deter the menace of pesticide residue contamination. Therefore, this review aimed to compute the most suitable degradation conditions for the removal of pesticide residue from water and Read More

Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is a highly prevalent and the most frequent reason for death. The choice of nanotheranostic technology for the management of colorectal cancer is one of the emerging strategies to overcome Colorectal Cancer (CRC). Magnetic nanoparticles are employed in this case because they have biomedical applications, such as diagnostic imaging, thermal treatment, and medication transport. There h Read More
