Opis:
The enormous applications of metal nanoparticles urged to find new biologically hazard free methods for huge synthesis. The green synthesis approaches are acknowledged by many scientists due to its cost effective, simple, eco-friendly and resourceful move. The present investigation deals with the bio-production and characterization of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles using leaf, stem, flowers and fruit pods of the medicinal plant Moringa oleifera. The synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles from the aqueous extracts were mediated by Zinc Nitate Hexahydrate as precursor. Various parameters like time periods, concentration of plant extracts and different temperatures were influenced the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles. The stability and reduction of zinc ions to ZnO nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopic analysis. The reaction medium from the leaves and flowers showed strong absorption at 308nm. The stem and fruit pods reaction medium existed absorption peak at 293nm.

Opis:
Biological synthesis of metal nanoparticles gained worldwide interest due to their rapid, non-toxic, economical, single-step technique and eco-friendly alternative. Green-chemical approach of production of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) has been exploited in the field of medicine, food packaging, nano-optical and electrical devices. Muntingia calabura is a multipotent medicinal plant with astounded biological activities and phytoconstituents. The nanoparticles obtained using aqueous extracts of various parts of M. calabura were characterized with UV-VIS spectroscopy to obtain information concerning the optical properties of synthesized ZnO nanoparticles. The proposed green and economical method could be used for large scale production of nanostructures because of its advantages over other physical and chemical methods.

Opis:
The mismatch between solar cell response and solar spectrum is one of the biggest challenges to achieve high efficiency in photovoltaic cells. There are a few different approaches to minimise this concern. One of them is the radiation conversion which may be due to three different processes, namely up-conversion, down conversion and down-shifting. In this paper the down-conversion process of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) and layers with ZnO NPs in polymer (poly (methyl methacrylate)) (PMMA) matrix will be analysed. ZnO NPs are prone to act as down-converting or down-shifting agents, which absorb the UV radiation, which is not absorbed by the solar cell, and then re-emit light in the visible range, which is suited to the photovoltaic cell sensitivity. Herein, the photoluminescence and optical transmittance of ZnO NPs and layers based on ZnO NPs will be presented. These parameters have a large influence on the potential application of these layers in photovoltaic structures for increased efficiency. The conversion layers have to fulfil the following conditions: have good optical transmittance in the visible range and high luminescence efficiency in converting UV radiation into visible. The paper focuses on finding the balance between these parameters.

Opis:
The role of copper in anti-inflammatory response includes several mechanisms. Antagonism between zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) and proper balance between the two elements in the organism may affect the course of inflammatory diseases. Copper is a component of Zn/Cu superoxide dismutase (Zn/Cu SOD) and other enzymes involved in the anti-inflammatory response of the organism. To investigate the serum copper level during inflammation and diseases, numerous researches were conducted. Copper deficiency or copper intoxication may lead to biological consequences. Copper deficiency may be caused by various factors, one of them is excessive zinc supplementation. The aim of the study was to investigate the alterations in the serum copper level after 2-week zinc oxide nanoparticles (NPs-ZnO) administration. The second aim was to investigate serum copper level alterations after 2-week NPs-ZnO and single ketoprofen administration. The inflammatory state was induced in each group by the carrageenan injection at the 15th day of the experiment. The results indicate for the decrease in serum copper level in group receiving NPs-ZnO compared to control. Moreover, in groups receiving NPs-ZnO as well as ketoprofen, a decrease in serum copper level was observed. We may conclude that NPs-ZnO administration and also ketoprofen administration acts as anti-inflammatory agents and may induce a decrease in serum copper level.

Opis:
The synthesis of Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles using plant parts is always an attractive and eco-friendly method. The present study focuses on the production of ZnO nanoparticles from Zinc Nitrate hexahydrate (Zn (NO3)2•6H2O) using the aqueous extracts of a medicinal plant Micrococca mercurialis. The plant is found to be rich in primary and secondary metabolites such as proteins, steroids and alkaloids, which are responsible and enhancing the biogenic synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles. Leaves, stems, roots and fruits of M. mercurialis were used to prepare the aqueous extracts. The characterization and confirmation of synthesized ZnO nanoparticles was performed by UV-Visible spectrophotometer. The reaction mixtures showed significant and sharp UV absorbance peaks at 305 nm, 299 nm, 311 nm and 302 nm corresponding to the aqueous extracts of leaf, stem, root and fruits reacted with zinc nitrate respectively. It has been proved that the medicinal plant M. mercurialis can be used to synthesize ZnO nanoparticles and the biological method of synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles are safe and good alternative to the chemical and physical methods.

Opis:
Zsyntezowano metodą miękkiego odwzorowania mezoporowate, uporządkowane węgle w obecności różnych prekursorów zawierających cynk. Węgle te otrzymano wykorzystując rezorcynol i formaldehyd jako prekursory węglowe, oraz kopolimer trójblokowy Lutrol F127 EO101PO56EO101 jako miękką matrycę. Nanocząstki cynku o wymiarach ok. 50 nm i tlenku cynku o wymiarach ok. 100 nm oraz roztwór azotanu (V) cynku użyto jako źródło cynku. Ostatecznie kompozytowe materiały węglowo-cynkowe charakteryzowały się dużą powierzchnią właściwą (od 470 do 670 m²/g) oraz dużą objętością porów (od 0,33 do 0,56 cm³/g), w której udział objętości mezoporów wynosił od ok. 40% do ok. 80%. Funkcje rozkładu objętości porów wykazały obecność mikroporów o wymiarach ok. 2 nm i mezoporów o wymiarach ok. 7-8 nm. Zdjęcia SEM wskazywały na bardzo dobrze uporządkowaną warstwową morfologię kompozytów węglowo-cynkowych. Zdjęcia te także potwierdziły występowanie uporządkowanych, jednorodnych mezoporów, szczególnie w materiałach z tlenkiem cynku karbonizowanych w różnych temperaturach. Dobrze rozwinięta struktura porowata uporządkowanych kompozytów węglowych z nanocząstkami cynku lub tlenku cynku, w ilości 1-2% wag., a w przypadku metody impregnacji ok. 11% wag. ZnO, stwarza realną możliwość ich wykorzystania w procesach katalitycznych i adsorpcyjnych.
Ordered mesoporous carbons were prepared by soft-templating in the presence of different precursors containing zinc. These carbons were obtained using resorcinol and formaldehyde as carbon precursors and triblock co-polymer Lutrol F127 EO101PO56EO101 as a soft template. Zinc nanoparticles with dimensions smaller than 50 nm, zinc oxide nanoparticles with dimensions smaller than 100 nm, and zinc nitrite solution were used as Zn precursors. The resulting carbon-zinc composite materials exhibited high specific surface areas (in the range of 470 to 670 m²/g) as well as large total pore volumes (in the range of 0.33 to 0.56 cm³/g), with the latter having the mesoporosity fraction between 40-80%. Based on the pore size distribution functions, the micropore width was estimated to be ca. 2 nm and the mesopore width was in the range of 7-8 nm. SEM images showed a layered structure of the obtained composites as well as proved a well-ordered structure of mesopores, which is particularly noticeable for the samples with zinc oxide nanoparticles carbonized at different temperatures. The well-developed structure of the ordered mesopores present in the synthesized composites loaded with nanoparticles of zinc or zinc oxide at 1-2 wt%, and in the case of the impregnated carbons at ca. 11 wt%, renders the obtained samples as feasible materials for catalytic and adsorption applications.

Opis:
Chitosan as a nontoxic, biodegradable, and biocompatible biopolymer with film-forming properties can also be modified to improve its parameters. Modification of polymer films by the addition of nanoparticles is an increasingly common solution due to the higher efficiency of products at the nanoscale compared to the macroscale. In this work, thin chitosan films enriched with biogenic zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) from Fusarium solani IOR 825 were obtained by the solvent evaporation method. The influence of nanoadditive on the physicochemical, mechanical, and antimicrobial properties of the polymeric matrix was evaluated. Two different concentrations of ZnONPs were added to the chitosan solution. Spectrometric measurements, mechanical tests, microscopic imaging, and microbiological tests were performed for nanoparticlesmodified and control samples. Analysis revealed that ZnONPs influence the properties of chitosan films. FTIR spectroscopy showed changes that are the result of interactions between polymer matrix and the additive. Modified samples were characterized by increased values of Young’s modulus and tensile strength. SEM analysis combined with energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry confirmed the presence of zinc in the modified films. The addition of nanoparticles slightly affected the surface morphology of the tested samples, and an increase in roughness was observed. Microbiological tests showed the biostatic activity of the films containing ZnONPs. The obtained films based on chitosan with the addition of ZnONPs can be considered easy-to-obtain biomaterials with potential use as cosmetic and biomedical products.

Opis:
This study aimed to produce gellan gum-based hydrogels with the addition of zinc oxide as a potential dressing material. Hydrogels with ZnO concentrations of 0.01%, 0.02% and 0.04% were prepared, micrometric and nanometric ZnO particles were used, and a CaCl2 crosslinker was added to one part of the samples. All samples (14 types) produced by the freeze drying method were characterized with high swelling properties (>2000%), what is important to ensure the absorption of exudates from wounds. Samples with ZnO particles cross-linked with CaCl2 lost less mass after incubation in aqueous media and were characterized by better dimensional stability than those without crosslinking. The pH of the extracts of the samples containing ZnO particles was more neutral (pH 7.0-7.6) than that of the control gellan gum samples (pH of 5.5-6.1). The zinc release from cross-linked samples was twice as high for those containing nanometric particles than for micrometric particles (1.94 ± 0.04 mg/l and 0.93 ± 0.02, respectively). Relatively large amounts of released zinc species in the case of samples containing ZnO nanoparticles are promising in the context of the antibacterial properties and treatment of infected wounds. A lower amount of zinc released from samples with ZnO microparticles could be sufficient to prevent the development of the infection. Furthermore, both materials show satisfactory cytocompatibility with L929 fibroblasts, as shown by Alamar blue and live/dead viability tests, making them prospective candidates for wound healing

At the end of the experiment, recorded mortality was: 81.6, 98.3 and 58.3% at the highest concentration used for each insect (0.3, 2 and 8 gm ⋅ kg–1 of SNPs with C. maculatus, S. oryzae and T. castaneum, respectively), while mortality was 88.3, 100 and 38.3% at the highest concentration used for each insect (0.6, 2.5 and 8 gm ⋅ kg–1 of ZnO NPs with C. maculatus, S. oryzae and T. castaneum, respectively). Both tested materials caused high reductions in F1-progeny (%) with C. maculatus and S. oryzae. Histopathological examination of male mice livers showed hepatic architecture with congested blood sinusoids, binucleated hepatocytes nuclei, dilated central vein and margainated chromatin in some nuclei. Histopathological assessment of the lungs showed normal histoarchitecture. There were no differences in alveolar septa, bronchiolar and epithelium of the treated and untreated animals. Silica and zinc oxide nanoparticles have a good potential to be used as stored seed protectant alternatives if applied with proper safety precautions.

Opis:
Acid leaching of Egyptian zinc ore from the Um Gheig area was carried out with sulfuric acid. This study determines the optimum conditions for dissolution of non-sulfide zinc ore. The optimum conditions are 25% -74m particle size, 45 °C temperature, 2 h leaching time, 1.1 stoichiometric molar ratio of H2SO4 to Zn, 1:3 solid/liquid ratio. The maximum filtration rate is 1.6 Mg Zn•m-2•day-1at pressure difference of 0.80 bar. The zinc recovery is about 90%. As the zinc ore contains zinc silicate, some additives were tested to enhance filtration and prevent formation of silica gel. To increase the added value of the product, zinc oxide was precipitated by a co-precipitation method in a nanosize powder with average particle size ~ 20 nm. Photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue dye under UV light using ZnO nanopowders produced at different conditions was investigated. Photocatalytic efficiency with methylene blue (MB) concentration was reduced as much as 85% in 240 min with the produced nanoparticles.

Green synthesis of Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) is a novel and non-toxic method as compared to the hazardous conventional physical and chemical methods. Herein, we report production of ZnO-NPs for the first time using whole vegetative parts of Sesamum indicum L. The aqueous extracts of various parts of S. indicum were used to synthesize nanoparticles in this study. The synthesized nanoparticles were evaluated using UV-visible spectroscopy for confirmation and characterization. The maximum UV-visible spectral absorption peaks were observed from 293 to 296 nm wavelengths. Leaf and stem reaction mixtures exhibited the sharpest absorption peaks of all the variations at 293 nm and root at 296 nm. This study leads to the development of cost-effective ZnO-NPs synthesis with possible further exploration to serve mankind.

Opis:
The effects of four different kinds of nanoparticles (NPs), namely, CuO, ZnO, TiO2, and Au, of the sizes ranging from <20 nm to 50 nm on Daphnia magna, early life stage of zebrafish, and various enzymes have been investigated. The experimental results showed that the NPs inhibited both the body length and hatching rate of zebrafish larvae; the small nanoparticles exhibited more toxicity. In a 21 day chronic toxicity test, metal ions of higher concentrations significantly reduced the number of Daphnia magna offspring. Studies on enzyme activity showed that the NPs reduced the glutathione content and inhibited catalase and superoxide dismutase activities, resulting in shorter body length, lower hatching success, and lower reproduction of zebrafish larvae. Therefore, studies should focus more on the potential toxicity of smaller NPs.

Opis:
Zinc is a microelement essential for the body. It has a great impact on the proper development and renewal of tissues, reproductive system, skin condition, or immune processes. Zincis involved practically in all aspects of the immune system and the production and activation of white blood cells. This work aimed to determine the effect of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONP) on the expression of pro-inflammatory proteins in murine macrophages RAW 264.7, activated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Using the immunodetection technique the expression of cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2), prostaglandin E2 synthase (cPGES), prostaglandin F2α receptor (FP receptor) and nuclear factor Nrf2 was determined. Statistically the highest expression of COX-2, cPGES, and FP receptor was observed in LPS-activated macrophages. RAW 264.7 cells supplementation with ZnONP 100 nmol and 500 nmol and LPS activation resulted in repression of COX-2 and cPGES, and an increased expression of Nrf2 protein when compared to control. The results suggest an anti-inflammatory effect and activation of the antioxidant system by ZnONP in RAW 264.7 macrophages. It seems appropriate to conduct further research on the molecular mechanism of action of ZnONP in eukaryotic cells.

The protection provided by clothing against ultraviolet (UV) radiation has been the subject of considerable recent research. However, there is a lack of information concerned with the effect of weave structures and zinc oxide nanoparticles on these properties. A series of cotton fabrics differing in weave structure was produced and treated with zinc oxide nanoparticles. These fabrics were spectrophotometrically assessed and the UV protection factor calculated. It was found that while there was no significant difference in the Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) in untreated samples, in samples treated with zinc oxide nanoparticles an increase was noticed in satin and granite weaves. There is no relationship between weave parameters and the UPF. Also between porosity and the UPF, no relationship was noticed. Thus the present study provides design guidelines for clothing manufacturers.
Ochrona zapewniana przez odzież przed promieniowaniem ultrafioletowym (UV) była przedmiotem wielu badań. Brak jest jednak informacji dotyczących wpływu struktur splotów i nanocząstek tlenku cynku na te właściwości. Przedmiotem pracy było wytworzenie tkanin bawełnianych różniących się strukturą splotów, a następnie poddano te tkaniny obróbce nanocząstkami tlenku cynku. Tkaniny te zostały ocenione spektrofotometrycznie i obliczono współczynnik ochrony przed promieniowaniem UV. Stwierdzono, że chociaż nie było istotnej różnicy we współczynniku ochrony przed promieniowaniem ultrafioletowym (UPF) w nieobrabianych próbkach, w próbkach obrabianych nanocząsteczkami tlenku cynku zauważono wzrost w splocie satynowym i granitowym. Stwierdzono, że nie ma związku pomiędzy parametrami splotu a UPF. Również między porowatością a UPF nie zauważono żadnego związku. Przedstawione wyniki badań mogą być źródłem wytycznych projektowych dla producentów odzieży.
