Gold nanoparticles synthesized using extracts of cyclopia intermedia, commonly known as honeybush, amplify the cytotoxic effects of doxorubicin
(MPDI, 2021)
Cyclopia intermedia (C. intermedia) is an indigenous South African shrub used to prepare the popular medicinal honeybush (HB) tea. This plant contains high levels of mangiferin (MGF), a xanthonoid that was reported to have ...
Synthesis of biogenic gold nanoparticles from terminalia mantaly extracts and the evaluation of their in vitro cytotoxic effects in cancer cells
(MDPI, 202-09-12)
Scientists have demonstrated the potential of plant materials as 'green' reducing and stabilizing agents for the synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and opened new ecofriendly horizons to develop effective and less ...
Catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol and methylene blue by biogenic gold nanoparticles synthesized using Carpobrotus edulis fruit (sour fig) extract
(SAGE Publications, 2022)
Along with the increasing requirement for efficient organic conversions using green chemistry, there is a need to develop highly efficient and eco-friendly catalytic reaction systems. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-based ...
Anticancer and drug-sensitizing activities of gold nanoparticles synthesized from cyclopia genistoides (honeybush) extracts
(MDPI, 2023)
Synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using phytochemicals has become tremendously
prominent in biomedical applications because of its enhanced bioactivity and biocompatibility. In
this study, water extracts from the ...
