研究目的
To develop a green approach for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles using aqueous extract of Durio zibethinus seed and to determine its antibacterial, photocatalytic and cytotoxic effects.
研究成果
The green synthesis of DSAgNPs using Durio zibethinus seed extract under sunlight is an environmentally friendly approach that yields effective nanoparticles with antibacterial, photocatalytic, and cytotoxic activities. These nanoparticles have potential applications in water treatment, pharmaceuticals, biomedicine, biosensor, and nanotechnology.
研究不足
The study did not explore the long-term stability of DSAgNPs under various environmental conditions. The antibacterial activity was tested against a limited number of bacterial strains. The cytotoxicity was only preliminary tested against brine shrimp, and further studies on cell-line toxicity and anti-tumor activities are needed.
