Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) have been widely used in the treatment of bacterial infections due to their antibacterial properties. The present study was aimed to explore the antibacterial effects of ZnO NPs on Streptococcus pyogenes. The antibacterial properties were evaluated by investigating the...
Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) have become the widely used metal oxide nanoparticles and drawn the interest of global researchers due to their biocompatibility, low toxicity, sustainability and cost-effective properties. Due to their unique optical and chemical properties, it emerges as a potential ...
Nanoparticles were defined by XRD, FTIR, and TEM for their structure distribution and particle size. The impact of nanoparticle size on the growth of fibroblast cells (NH3T3) and antimicrobial activity was studied. The growth of fibroblast cells was proportional to zinc oxide nanoparticle size. ...
zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) were synthesized, which led to a color change from greenish yellow to a pale white precipitate. The synthesized ZnONPs were then subjected to various characterization techniques including UV–visible spectrum, FTIR, XRD, SEM-EDAX...
This study investigated the antibacterial and antibiofilm activities of hexagonal zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) alone and in combination with streptomycin and Moringa oleifera leaf extract (MOLe) against multidrug-resistant E. faecalis isolates from feline UTIs. Methods: Antimicrobia...
Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) exhibit a variety of biological activity. They are much less toxic and biodegradable and have the capacity to significantly boost pharmacophore bioactivity. In this work, we aim to synthesis biocompatible ZnO nanoparticles from the zinc ac...
Through this study, zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO.NPs) have been synthesized based on using the environmentally benign extract of the aerial parts of D. tortuosa as a reducing and capping agent. ZnO.NPs synthesis was confirmed using UV-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared ...
Cryptosporidiosis is a global health problem that threatens the lives of immunocompromised patients. This study targets to fabricate and investigate the efficiency of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs), nitazoxanide (NTZ)-loaded ZnO-NPs, and Allium sativ
ZINC oxide synthesisEmploying safe and inexpensive methods for the synthesis of biocompatible nanoparticles (NPs) can be very challenging. Green synthesis refers to the process of synthesizing nanoparticles without using toxic and dangerous chemicals. One of the applications of nanoparticles i...
andAspergillus niger. Mechanism of action has been ascribed to the activation of zinc oxide nanoparticles by light, which penetrate the bacterial cell wall via diffusion. It has been confirmed from SEM and TEM images of the bacterial cells that zinc oxide nanoparticles disintegrate the cell membrane...
