Biosynthesis, electrochemical, antimicrobial and antioxidant studies of silver nanoparticles mediated by talinum triangulare aqueous leaf extract
(Springer, 2017)Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized using leaf extract of Talinum triangulare (TT). The nanoparticles were characterised using Infra-red spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron ... -
Evaluation of the antibacterial activity of metal impregnated multi-walled carbon nanotubes: impact of domestic wastewater as supporting medium
(Desalination Publications, 2017)Despite the availability of potential water treatment resources, bacterial infections are still of major concern, especially in developing countries where large numbers of people do not have ... -
Phytosynthesis of silver nanoparticles using aqueous leaf extracts of Lippia citriodora: antimicrobial, larvicidal and photocatalytic evaluations
(Elsevier, 2017)Nanoscience and nanotechnology represent new and enabling platforms that promise to provide broad range of novel and improved technologies for environmental, biological and other scientific applications. This study reports ... -
Plant-mediated biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles by leaf extracts of Lasienthra africanum and a study of the influence of kinetic parameters
(Springer, 2017)Lasienthra africanum (LA) leaf extract was employed for nano-silver synthesis. The reducing effect of the plant extract was investigated at different times, pH, temperatures and concentrations. The effect of various kinetic ... -
Silver nanoparticles mediated by Costus afer Leaf extract: synthesis, antibacterial, antioxidant and electrochemical properties
(MDPI, 2017)Synthesis of metallic and semiconductor nanoparticles through physical and chemical routes has been extensively reported. However, green synthesized metal nanoparticles are currently in the limelight due to the simplicity, ...
