In this study, dual doped Zinc oxide nanoparticles consisted of silver and magnesium were prepared by Salvadora persica extract. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) analysis displayed the formation of wurtzite ZnO phase nanostructures and dual doped nanoparticles. The morphological observations of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) confirmed the hexagonal morphology of prepared nanoparticles. The Raman scattering of this product exhibited the first and second orders of polar and non-polar modes that are the characteristic bonds of a wurtzite structure. The toxicity effects of synthesized un-doped, as well as Ag and Mg dual doped ZnO NPs on breast cancer cell (MDA-MB-231) and breast normal cell (MCF-10A) lines, were investigated by the means of MTT test. Accordingly, in comparison to the case of silver and magnesium doped zinc oxide nanoparticles, the un-doped ZnO NPs caused a more toxic impact on MDA-MB-231cells. There was a lack of any significant toxicity effects from un-doped and Ag and Mg dual doped ZnO nanoparticles on the experimented normal cell line (MCF-10A). The gathered results were indicative of a lower toxicity effect in doped nanoparticles when compared to un-doped nanoparticles and therefore, it can be stated that the doping of silver and magnesium metals produces more reliable zinc oxide nanoparticles.  相似文献

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide. Chemotherapy followed by endocrine therapy is the standard treatment strategy after surgery or radiotherapy. However, breast cancer is highly resistant to the treatments leading to the recurrence of breast cancer. As a result, the development of alternative medicines derived from natural plants with fewer side effects is being emphasized. Andrographolide isolated from Andrographis paniculata is one of the potential substances with anti-cancer properties in a variety of cell types, including breast cancer cells. This study aims to investigate the anti-cancer effects of andrographolide in breast cancer cells by evaluating cell viability and apoptosis as well as its underlying mechanisms through estrogen receptor (ER)-dependent and PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathways. Cell viability, cell apoptosis, mRNA or miRNA, and protein expression were examined by MTT assay, Annexin V-FITC, qRT-PCR, and Western blot analysis, respectively. MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell viability was reduced in a concentration- and time-dependent manner after andrographolide treatment. Moreover, andrographolide induced cell apoptosis in both MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells by inhibiting Bcl-2 and enhancing Bax expression at both mRNA and protein levels. In MCF-7 cells, the ER-positive breast cancer, andrographolide showed an inhibitory effect on cell proliferation through downregulation of ERα, PI3K, and mTOR expression levels. Andrographolide also inhibited MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell proliferation via induction of cell apoptosis. However, the inhibition of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell proliferation of andrographolide treatment did not disrupt miR-21. Our findings showed that andrographolide possesses an anti-estrogenic effect by suppressing cell proliferation in MCF-7 cells. The effects were comparable to those of the anticancer drug fulvestrant in MCF-7 cells. This study provides new insights into the anti-cancer effect of andrographolide on breast cancer and suggests andrographolide as a potential alternative from the natural plant for treating breast cancer types that are resistant to tamoxifen and fulvestrant.  相似文献

Undoped zinc oxide nanoparticles and Mn (5 atomic % & 10 atomic %) doped zinc oxide nanoparticles were prepared by soft chemical method. Antibacterial, antioxidant and anticancer activities in breast cancer cell line MDAMB231 of prepared nanoparticles were investigated. The nanoparticles were characterized using XRD, SEM, EDAX, UV–Vis, FT-IR, and room temperature PL Analysis. Antimicrobial activity was tested against both gram positive and gram negative human pathogens. The antioxidant potential of prepared nanoparticles was estimated using Phosphomolybdate and DPPH assay. The MTT assay was used for cytotoxicity evaluation of prepared nanoparticles against breast cancer cell line MDAMB231. XRD patterns confirmed the nanoparticles were crystallized hexagonal wurtzite structure with an average size of 38.95 ?nm. The absorption wavelength was observed at 361 ?nm in UV–Vis spectrum of Mn (10 atomic %) doped ZnO nanoparticles. The Mn (5 atomic %) doped ZnO nanoparticles exhibited significant antibacterial activity against the gram negative bacteria Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia at all concentrations. Undoped zinc oxide nanoparticles and Mn doped zinc oxide nanoparticles were effective against the breast cancer cell line MDAMB231.  相似文献

Eco-friendly biosynthesis of polycrystalline titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) was synthesised using Justicia gendarussa (J. gendarussa) leaf extract as oxidizing agents. They were compared with TiO2 NPs synthesized using the glacial acetic acid and also studied was the combined effect of synthesis of TiO2 NPs. The crystalline nature and structural formation of TiO2 NPs synthesized by different methods were confirmed by the X-ray diffraction technique, and functional groups of materials were confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy. The synthesized materials were investigated for photocatalytic activity for methylene blue under UV irradiation and toxicity activity against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells. The result indicates that TiO2 NPs synthesised by J. gendarussa showed superior and enhanced activity against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231. Biosynthesized TiO2 NPs showed higher photodegradation of dyes when compared with other TiO2 NPs synthesized by different methods. This is due to the alterations in band gap; structural changes and surface area in nanoparticles that increased the activity. Also, nanosphere/disc like morphology of TiO2 NPs is confirmed using TEM.  相似文献

Biogenic metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) have emerged as a useful tool in biology due to their biocompatibility properties with most biological systems. In this study, we report the synthesis of copper oxide (CuO), zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs), and their nanocomposite (CuO–ZnO) prepared using the phytochemical extracts from the leaves of Dovyalis caffra (kei apple). The physicochemical properties of these nanomaterials were established using some characterization techniques including X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The XRD result confirmed the presence of a monoclinic CuO (Tenorite), and a hexagonal ZnO (Zincite) nanoparticles phase, which were both confirmed in the CuO–ZnO composite. The electron microscopy of the CuO–ZnO, CuO, and ZnO NPs showed a mixture of nano-scale sizes and spherical/short-rod morphologies, with some agglomeration. In the constituent’s analysis (EDX), no unwanted peak was found, which showed the absence of impurities. Antioxidant properties of the nanoparticles was studied, which confirmed that CuO–ZnO nanocomposite exhibited better scavenging potential than the individual metal oxide nanoparticles (CuO, and ZnO), and ascorbic acid with respect to their minimum inhibitory concentration (IC50) values. Similarly, the in vitro anticancer studies using MCF7 breast cancer cell lines indicated a concentration-dependent profile with the CuO–ZnO nanocomposite having the best activity over the respective metal oxides, but slightly lower than the standard 5-Fluorouracil drug.  相似文献

ZnO and Pd nanoparticles (NPs) with average diameter of 38 and 10 nm were prepared in advance through a chemical solution method. Pd-functionalized ZnO nanoparticles (Pd@ZnO) were simply synthesized by adding ethanol solution of Pd NPs into ZnO powder, and annealing in argon atmosphere at 500 °C for 1 h after grinding for 30 min. The morphology and structure of the materials were systemically analyzed using Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. A weak peak in the XRD pattern of Pd@ZnO belonging to the (111) plane of elemental Pd indicated successfully loading of Pd. EDS and TEM results further confirmed successfully coating of Pd NPs onto the surface of ZnO. Sensors using ZnO NPs decorated with Pd (1 wt%) on the surface of exhibited highly elevated sensitivity of 76 in comparing with the response of 36 when based on pure ZnO NPs. In addition, such modification also resulted in a decrease in the operating temperature from 370 to 340 °C for 100 ppm acetone vapor. The sensing mechanism of the sensor based on Pd@ZnO NPs is discussed. Addition of Pd NPs can play an important role in improving the performance of gas sensors, including high sensitivity, good selectivity, and short response/recovery times.  相似文献

Presented experiment considers combination of genistein and photodynamic therapy with hypericin with a view to achieve higher therapeutic outcome in human breast adenocarcinoma cell lines MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231, both identified in our conditions as photodynamic therapy resistant. Since genistein is known to suppress Bcl-2 expression, we predicted that photodynamic therapy with hypericin might benefit from mutual therapeutic combination. In line with our expectations, combined treatment led to down-regulation of Bcl-2 and up-regulation of Bax in both cell lines as well as to suppression of Akt and Erk1/2 phosphorylation induced by photoactivated hypericin in MCF-7 cells. Although Akt and Erk1/2 phosphorylation was not stimulated by photodynamic therapy with hypericin in MDA-MB-231 cells, it was effectively suppressed in combination. Variations in cell death signaling favoring apoptosis were indeed accompanied by cell cycle arrest in G2/M-phase, activation of caspase-7, PARP cleavage and increased occurrence of cells with apoptotic morphology of nucleus. All these events corresponded with suppression of proliferation and significantly lowered clonogenic ability of treated cells. In conclusion, our results indicate that pre-treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein may significantly improve the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy with hypericin in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells.  相似文献

The synthesis of nanoparticles is most important in the context of cancer therapy, particularly copper nanoparticles, which are widely used. In this work, copper(II)-tyrosinase was isolated from potato peel powder. Copper nanoparticles (Tyr-Cu(II)-AEEA NPs) were synthesized via the reaction of tyrosinase with N-aminoethylethanolamine to produce Cu(II)-NPs and these were characterized by means of FT-IR, UV-Spectroscopy, XRD, SEM, TEM and a particle size analyzer. These Tyr-Cu(II)-AEEA NPs were tested as anticancer agents against MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Fluorescence microscopy and DNA fragmentation were also performed, which revealed the inhibiting potentials of Cu(II)-AEEA NPs and consequent cell death; Tyr-Cu(II)-AEEA NPs show potential cytotoxicity activity and this nano material could be contemplated as an anticancer medicament in future investigations.  相似文献

(2E,6E)-2,6-bis-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)-cyclohexanone (BHMC) is a synthetic curcumin analogue, which has been reported to possess anti-tumor, anti-metastatic, and anti-invasion properties on estrogen receptor (ER) negative breast cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. However, the cytotoxic effects of BHMC on ER positive breast cancer cells were not widely reported. This study was aimed to investigate the cytotoxic potential of BHMC on MCF-7 cells using cell viability, cell cycle, and apoptotic assays. Besides, microarray and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) were performed to identify the list of miRNAs and genes, which could be dysregulated following BHMC treatment. The current study discovered that BHMC exhibits selective cytotoxic effects on ER positive MCF-7 cells as compared to ER negative MDA-MB-231 cells and normal breast cells, MCF-10A. BHMC was shown to promote G2/M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in MCF-7 cells. Microarray and qPCR analysis demonstrated that BHMC treatment would upregulate several miRNAs like miR-3195 and miR-30a-3p and downregulate miRNAs such as miR-6813-5p and miR-6132 in MCF-7 cells. Besides, BHMC administration was also found to downregulate few tumor-promoting genes like VEGF and SNAIL in MCF-7. In conclusion, BHMC induced apoptosis in the MCF-7 cells by altering the expressions of apoptotic-regulating miRNAs and associated genes.  相似文献

The present study fabricates biogenic zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) with the aqueous leaf extract of Annona muricata (Am) plant collected from semi-evergreen forests of Odisha, India. The synthesized Am-ZnO NPs were physicochemically characterized. The ultraviolet/visible spectrum showed the maximum optical absorbance of Am-ZnO NPs at 355 nm. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy analysis presented the nearly spherical shape of Am-ZnO NPs with an average particle size of 80 nm. The net surface charge and hydrodynamic size of Am-ZnO NPs were measured to be ~?2.59 mV and ~417 nm, respectively. Am-ZnO NPs were found to be biocompatible and hemocompatible nature. Furthermore, Am-ZnO NPs displayed strong anticancer effects on both 2D and 3D tumor models. We observed a dose-dependent toxicity on both A549 and MOLT4 cells and observed a size reduction in the A549 tumor spheroids. Subsequently, we observed a depolarization in mitochondrial membrane potential of Am-ZnO NP–treated cancer cells leading to the apoptosis induction in cancer cells.  相似文献

Free radicals, mostly consist of reactive oxygen species, are generated in human body by several exogenous and endogenous systems. Overproduction of free radicals is known to cause several degenerative disorders including cancer. The aim of this study is to synthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using root extract of Reynoutria japonica and to investigate its antioxidant and cytotoxic potential. AgNPs were synthesized by green approach and subsequently characterized using UV–vis spectroscopy, SEM, TEM, FTIR, XRD, EDS and DLS. The antioxidant activity was investigated using DPPH, FRAP, H2O2, and ABT?+ radical scavenging assays while the cytotoxic effect was assessed using different human cancer cell lines including lung (A549), liver (Hep-G2) and breast (MDA-MB-231) by MTS assay. Moreover, the specificity of NPs was assessed against two normal human cell lines e.g. alveolar and renal primary epithelial cells (HPAEpiC and HRPTEpiC). The UV–vis spectra confirmed the synthesis of AgNPs by producing a characteristic peak at 410 nm. Further analysis confirmed that AgNPs were crystalline in nature, predominantly spherical in shape, with an average width and area of 17.34 nm and 164.46 nm2, respectively. DLS analysis revealed that NPs possess a high negative zeta potential value (?28.5 mV), thus facilitating its electrostatic stabilization. AgNPs showed dose dependent antioxidant activity against DPPH, FRAP, H2O2 and ABTS with IC50 values 19.25, 22.45, 24.20 and 18.88 µg/ml, respectively. The AgNPs depicted significant cytotoxic effects against A549, Hep-G2 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines with IC50 values of 4.5, 5.1 and 3.46 µg/ml, respectively. Moreover, the NPs exhibited highest selectivity index (>2.0) for A549, Hep-G2 and MDA-MB-231, confirming its specificity towards cancer cell lines. In conclusion, AgNPs prepared from root extract of R. japonica possess strong antioxidant and cytotoxic potential which suggests that they should be investigated further in order to develop safe and effective antioxidant and/or cytotoxic formulations.  相似文献

The goal of this research was to develop, fabricate and analyze polymeric nanoparticles for the administration of methotrexate (MTX). Linseed mucilage and chitosan nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared using a slightly modified polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) method. The size, shape, and encapsulation effectiveness of the resultant nanoparticles were measured. MTX release profiles at gastrointestinal pH (1.2 and 7.4) and tumor pH (5.5) were examined to determine the targeted potential of NPs as pH-responsive nanocarriers. Zeta analysis showed that nanoparticles prepared by PEC have a size range of 192.1 nm to 246 nm, and PDI was 0.3 of the optimized formulation, which showed homogenous nature of prepared nanoparticles formulation. The findings demonstrated that NPs have a low polydispersity index and a positive zeta potential (PDI). The in-vitro release of the drug indicated a pH-dependent, sustained drug release up to 24 h. Blank LSMCSNPs had almost no in-vivo cytotoxicity for 14 days, while optimum MTX loaded NPs had strong antitumor effects on HepG2 and MCF-7 cells as measured by the MTT assay. Cell apoptosis induction was also checked and MCF-7 cells treated with MTX-LSMCSNPs had a significantly greater rate of apoptosis (21.2 %) than those treated with MTX alone (14.14 %). The findings show that LSMCSNPs could be a potential delivery mechanism for methotrexate to cancer cells in a secure, steady, and ideally controlled manner to improve therapeutic outcomes.  相似文献

Nowadays, the industrial wastewater pollutants including toxic dyes and pathogenic microbes have caused serious environmental contaminations and human health problems. In the present study, eco-friendly and facile green synthesis of Ag modified ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO-Ag NPs) using Crataegus monogyna (C. monogyna) extract (ZnO-Ag@CME NPs) is reported. The morphology and structure of the as-biosynthesized product were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), differential reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), dynamic light scattering (DLS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) techniques. TEM and FESEM images confirmed the oval and spherical-like structure of the products with a size of 55–70 nm. The EDS analysis confirmed the presence of Zn, Ag, and O elements in the biosynthesized product. The photocatalytic results showed ZnO-Ag@CME NPs were degraded (89.8% and 75.3%) and (94.2% and 84.7%) of methyl orange (MO) and basic violet 10 (BV10), under UV and sunlight irradiations, respectively. The Ag modified ZnO nanoparticles exhibited enhanced catalytic activity towards organic pollutants, and showed better performance than the pure ZnO nanoparticles under UV and sunlight irradiations. This performance was probably due to the presence of silver nanoparticles as a plasmonic material. Antibacterial activity was performed against different bacteria. ZnO-Ag@CME NPs showed high antibacterial activity against K. pneumoniae, S. typhimurium, P. vulgaris, S. mitis, and S. faecalis with MIC values of 50, 12.5, 12.5, 12.5, and 12.45 µg/mL, respectively. All in all, the present investigation suggests a promising method to achieve high-efficiency antibacterial and catalytic performance.  相似文献

Several derivatives containing morpholine/piperidine, anilines, and dipeptides as pending moieties were prepared using s-triazine as a scaffold. These compounds were evaluated for their anticancer activity against two human breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231), a colon cancer cell line (HCT-116), and a non-tumorigenic cell line (HEK 293). Tamoxifen was used as a reference. Animal toxicity tests were carried out in zebrafish embryos. Most of these compounds showed a higher activity against breast cancer than colon cancer. Compound 3a—which contains morpholine, aniline, and glycylglycinate methyl ester—showed a high level of cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cells with IC50 values of less than 1 µM. This compound showed a much lower level of toxicity against the non-tumorigenic HEK-293 cell line, and in the in vivo studies using zebrafish embryos. Furthermore, it induced cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase, and apoptosis in MCF-7 cells. On the basis of our results, 3a emerges as a potential candidate for further development as a therapeutic drug to treat hormone receptor-positive breast cancer.  相似文献

Phenylbutyrate (PB), a small aromatic fatty acid, has been known as an interesting compound with the ability of anti-proliferation and cell growth inhibition in cancer cells. In the present study, a series of PB derivatives were synthesized by Passerini multicomponent reaction and their cytotoxic activities against various human cancer cell lines including A549 (non-small cell lung cancer), MDA-MB-231 (breast cancer), and SW1116 (colon cancer) were evaluated. The results revealed that B9, displayed significantly higher in vitro cytotoxicity with IC50 of 6.65, 8.44 and 24.71 μM, against A549, MDA-MB-231 and, SW1116, respectively, in comparison to PB. The effects of these compounds on the proliferation of MCF-10A as non-tumoral breast cell line, showed good selectivity of the compounds between tumorigenic and non-tumorigenic cell lines. Moreover, B9 has indicated apoptosis-inducing activities to MDA-MB-231 cancer cell line in a dose-dependent manner. The molecular docking studies of the synthesized compounds on pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 2 (PDK2; PDB ID: 2BU8) and histone deacetylase complex (HDAC; PDB ID: 1C3R), as the main targets of PB were applied to predict the binding sites and binding orientation of the compounds to these targets.  相似文献

The green method of nanoparticle synthesis, which is an environment and living-friendly method, is an updated subject that has appeared as an alternative to conventional methods such as physical and chemical synthesis. In this presented study, the green synthesis of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) from iron (III) chloride by using Brassica oleracea var. capitata sub.var. rubra aqueous peel extract has been reported. The prepared IONPs were characterized with fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-VIS), zeta potential, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The cytotoxic effects of IONPs on MCF-7 breast cancer cell line were studied by MTT assay, and migrative effect of its were carried out by the wound healing assay. It was found that the mean particle size of IONPs was 675 ± 25 nm, and the polydispersity index was 0.265 PDI. It was also determined that these nanoparticles had an anti-proliferative impact on the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line depending on the dosage. Characterization results support the successful synthesis of nanoparticles, and the dose-dependent cytotoxic effects of nanoparticles on MCF-7 cells also make it a potential chemotherapeutic agent for breast cancer treatment.  相似文献

Silver-doped zinc oxide nanoparticles (Ag-ZnO NPs) were successfully synthesized by the Sol-gel method coated with polyethylene glycol as a stabilizing and capping agent. The UV–Vis spectrophotometer analysis was done to analyze the optical property of the nanoparticles. XRD pattern showed the hexagonal structure of ZnO nanoparticles and the reduction in the intensity of the peaks of Ag-ZnO NPs indicates the incorporation of Ag+ ions in the ZnO lattices. The surface structural properties of the NPs were confirmed by Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM), High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) and Selected Area Electron Diffraction (SAED). The elemental composition of nanoparticles was confirmed by EDAX and XRF-Spectroscopy. The functional group of ZnO and Ag nanoparticles were determined by FT-IR spectroscopy. The photocatalytic activity of Ag-ZnO NPs was studied against ponceau and the maximum degradation percentage was observed to be 89% at 140 min. Further, Ag-ZnO NPs unveiled high potent antibacterial activity against the selected bacterial pathogens and it also rendered significant anticancer activity in UVB-induced HaCaT cells. Consequently, the fluorescent microscopic analysis confirmed the increasing Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) generation and Mitochondrial Membrane Potential (MMP) loss in the HaCaT cells that leads to the apoptosis induction. Hence, the selected combination of nanoparticles has proven to exhibit higher photocatalytic, antibacterial and anticancer activity. In the near future, it could be an efficient tool for eradicating the dye pollution from wastewater and also preferably be utilized in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries to prevent skin cancer.  相似文献

The present research highlights physical significance of green combination of metal oxide nanomaterials utilizing medicinal plant which has widely analyzed in different medical applications i.e., medicinal science, therapeutics. In this paper, we discussed environmentally benign approach for synthesizing silver doped copper oxide nanoparticles (Ag–CuO NPs) utilizing (ACLE). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) were utilized to confirm the size, crystalline structure and surface morphology of the obtained nanomaterials. The monoclinic crystalline structure of the Ag–CuO NPs as produced was revealed by XRD patterns. Morphological analysis disclosed the nano-based spherical configuration of Ag–CuO NPs, as well as their morphology and elemental composition. The anti-diabetic effect of Ag–CuO NPs was further investigated utilizing a yeast cell model and amylase inhibition. Here, a decrease in intracellular glucose and a delay in carbohydrate digestion indicate promising antidiabetic action. Furthermore, the prepared nanomaterial showed anticancer potential against the MCF-7 cancer cell line, with an IC 50 value of 11.21 g/ml.  相似文献

Green chemistry of nanomaterials from synthesis to diverse biomedical applications is a discussion of town in the current scientific scenario. In this work, Ocimum basilicum leaves extract was utilized as the reducing agent in the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles. Green synthesized ZnO NPs mediated via Ocimum basilicum extract were decorated on the reduced graphene oxide (RGO) sheet by the simple one-step method. The prepared green synthesized RGO-ZnO nanocomposites (NCs) were characterized via the X-ray diffractometer. The average crystallite size of ZnO was 25 nm which confirmed the wurtzite hexagonal structure of ZnO. The scanning Electron Microscopy technique confirmed the spherical morphology of particle size of 31 nm. Further, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy confirms the Zn-O bond stretching in the RGO-ZnO NCs. Antioxidant activity of the green synthesized Ocimum basilicum ZnO NPs and RGO-ZnO NCs were performed by DPPH scavenging activities and found the dose-dependent. RGO-ZnO effectively inhibited the α-amylase and α-glucosidase for in vitro antidiabetic activities. Moreover, RGO-ZnO NCs showed the antibacterial potential with increasing concentration against the gram-positive (Cocci) and gram-negative (E. coli) bacterial strains. In Photocatalytic activity, the ZnO NPs and RGO-ZnO NCs were utilized as the catalyst and degraded the Rh-B dye 91.4% and 96.7% under UV–visible light. Overall, RGO-ZnO NCs showed better results in antibacterial, antidiabetic activity as well as photocatalytic activity against the pure ZnO NPs. Hence, RGO-ZnO nanocomposites have demonstrated the opportunity to be an entrancing material for photocatalysis and biological studies.  相似文献
