Wormhole-like mesostructured monetite was successfully synthesized using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (C19H42BrN, CTAB), as a porosity agent. X-ray techniques and FTIR reveal that the crystalline grains consist of highly crystalline pure monetite phase. Monetite rods with diameter around 20–40 nm and length in the range of 50–200 nm were confirmed by FESEM and TEM. Based on N2adsorption-desorption isotherms investigation, surface area increased up to 31.5 m2/g due to the removal of surfactant after calcinations at 400°C. The results indicate that CTAB can not only affect monetite crystallization but also change particles morphology from plate shape to rod-like.

Biopolymer has full application as a drug carrier and scaffold in tissue engineering because of its biodegradability and non-toxicity. The present study is focused on novel biopolymer gellan gum as a drug delivery agent. The objective of the study is to synthesize the gellan gum nanoparticle by solvent evaporation emulsification method and characterize it using SEM, DLS, FTIR, and XRD. As pyridoxine is effectively used to treat diabetic peripheral neuropathy, it has been encapsulated with gellan gum and characterized. The antioxidant assay was performed using ABTS reagent, and the activity increases with increasing concentration of nanoparticle. Also, it has significant antimicrobial activity against gram-positive bacteria. Apart from this, the drug release kinetics of the gellan gum- pyridoxine nanoparticle was studied.
