Aloe vera–Based Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles With Characterization, Potent Antibacterial and Antioxidant Properties

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Green synthesis has emerged as a suitable alternative to the traditional method for manufacturing nanoparticles (NPs) as it provides a safer, sustainable, healthy, and environmental path for the NPs synthesis. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were prepared using a green method with locally sourced Aloe vera leaf extract.

Green Fuel Combustion Synthesis of CeO2 and Ag/CeO2 Nanoparticles for Photocatalytic and Antibacterial Applications

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Silver‐doped cerium oxide nanoparticles (Ag/CeO2 NPs) were synthesized using Ricinus communis seed extract as a bio‐derived fuel in a solution combustion method. The combustion reaction, carried out at 450°C with AgNO3 and (NH4)2[Ce (NO3)6] as metal precursors, produced CeO2 and Ag/CeO2 NPs.

Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using guava leaves: an effective strategy to control chilli fruit rot disease

BMC Plant Biology
Background Anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum capsici, is a significant fungal disease affecting chilli crops, leading to yield losses of 10–25%. Traditional control methods, primarily chemical fungicides, not only pose risks to the environment and ...

Adaptability and Stability of Yield and Industrial Grain Quality with and without Fungicide in Brazilian Oat Cultivars

American Journal of Plant Sciences, 2015
The use of productive cultivars with adaptability and stability and less demanding to fungicide use are critical to the sustainability of production factors. The objective of this work was to determine the per se performance of white oat cultivars and parameters of adaptability and stability on yield and grain quality in the proposition of cultivars ...
