Green-synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles mitigate salt stress in sorghum bicolor
(MDPI, 2022)
Salinity is an abiotic stress that is responsible for more than 50% of crop losses worldwide.
Current strategies to overcome salinity in agriculture are limited to the use of genetically modified
crops and chemicals ...
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 ...
Green synthesis of iron oxide (hematite) nanoparticles and their influence on sorghum bicolor growth under drought stress
(MDPI, 2023)
Drought is a major abiotic stress that confronts plant growth and productivity, thus
compromising food security. Plants use physiological and biochemical mechanisms to cope with
drought stress, but at the expense of ...
Enhanced anti-bacterial activity of biogenic silver nanoparticles synthesized from terminalia mantaly extracts
(Dove Press, 2019)
The global increase in outbreaks and mortality rates associated with multidrug-
resistant (MDR) bacteria is a major health concern and calls for alternative treatments.
Natural-derived products have shown potential in ...
