Nanotechnology is an expanding area of research where we use to deal with the materials in Nano-dimension. The conventional procedures for synthesizing metal nanoparticles need to sophisticated and costly instruments or high-priced chemicals. Moreover, the techniques may not be environmentally safe. Therefore “green” technologies for synthesis of nanoparticles are always preferred which is simple, convenient, eco-friendly and cost effective. Green synthesis of nanoparticle is a novel way to synthesis nanoparticles by using biological sources. It is gaining attention due to its cost effective, ecofriendly and large scale production possibilities. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are one of the most vital and fascinating nanomaterials among several metallic nanoparticles that are involved in biomedical applications. It has vital importance in nanoscience and naomedicines to treat and prevent vital disease in human beings especially in cancer treatment. In current work we discussed different methods for synthesis of AgNPs like biological, chemical and physical along with its characterization. We have also discussed vital importance of AgNPs to cure life threatnign diseases like cancer along with antidiabetic, antifungal, antiviral and antimicrobial alog with its molecular mode of action etc. Finally we conclude by discussing future prospects and possible applications of silver nano particles.

ABSTRACTUltrasonically generated forces are well known for dispersing and deagglomeration of small volumes in laboratory and bench-top scale. By the evaluation and optimization of the most important ultrasonic parameters and the development of large scale ultrasonic machinery, ultrasound forces can be applied also for particle size reduction and wet-milling of nano-particles in industrial scale.

The integration of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and surface-enhanced fluorescence (SEF) has attracted increasing interest and is highly probable to improve the sensitivity and reproducibility of spectroscopic investigations in biomedical fields. In this work, dual-mode SERS and SEF hierarchical structures have been developed on a single bio-metallic substrate. The hierarchical structure was composed of micro-grooves, nano-particles, and nano-ripples. The crystal violet was selected as reporter molecule and both the intensity of Raman and fluorescence signals were enhanced because of the dual-mode SERS−SEF phenomena with enhancement factors (EFs) of 7.85 × 105 and 14.32, respectively. The Raman and fluorescence signals also exhibited good uniformity with the relative standard deviation value of 2.46% and 5.15%, respectively. Moreover, the substrate exhibited high sensitivity with the limits of detection (LOD) as low as 1 × 10−11 mol/L using Raman spectroscopy and 1 × 10−10 mol/L by fluorescence spectroscopy. The combined effect of surface plasmon resonance and “hot spots” induced by the hierarchical laser induced periodical surface structures (LIPSS) was mainly contributed to the enhancement of Raman and fluorescence signal. We propose that the integration of SERS and SEF in a single bio-metallic substrate is promising to improve the sensitivity and reproducibility of detection in biomedical investigations.

Nanoparticles have their demand in various fields of science and technology and their applications extend even in medical and pharmaceutical arena. They have been used as preservatives, diagnosing aids and potent antibacterial agents. But their production is a serious matter of concern when it comes to cost, efficacy and toxicity issues. Overcoming these limitations green synthesis has taken its advantage for their commercial and large scale synthesis. This research will focus on the preparation of nano particles of silver with the help of purified leaf extract from Lannea coromandelica and evaluation of the same using UV-Vis Spectrophotometry. The nanoparticles exhibited surface plasmon resonance at 420nm in UV spectroscopy. Futhermore, nanoparticles have been evaluated for their antibacterial activity on Putida vulgaris, Staphylococcus aureus, and Bacillus subtillis. The results proved the eco friendly synthesized silver nanoparticles have a good antibacterial and can be used effectively in therapies targeting infections and infectious wounds.

Powder injection molding (PIM) is among the most known forming techniques that use material powders. This technique has been widely evaluated for the production of large scale and small components using metal and ceramic powders. Nano particles have larger surface-to-volume ratio compared with large-sized particles, thus they display high surface area. Some merits in the application of nano-sized particles in the PIM process includes increasing its comparative density at a low sintering temperature, decreasing sintering temperature, decreasing grain size of sintered bodies, increasing hardness value, and improving surface properties. However, it also has several disadvantages, which include increasing the viscosity behaviour of feedstock, oxidation, and agglomeration. This article reviews current studies on the effects of nano-sized particles on the PIM process and finding solutions to address its disadvantages.

LiFePO4 is considered as the promising cathode material for a large-scale Li batteries used in electrical vehicles (EVs). However, a practical use of LiFePO4 cathode is limited by its low ionic conductivity, resulting in low battery’s power performance. This work, a facile and practical method to promote ionic conductivity and capacity of LiFePO4 was developed by dispersing LiFePO4 nanoparticles into a porous nitrogen-riched carbon matrix by employing one-pot synthesis approach. The N-containing carbon porous matrix was prepared by utilizing melamine-formaldehyde (MF) resin as the N-containing carbon precursor and Pluronic F127 as the porous template. The pseudo capacitive effect attributed from lone-pair electrons into melamine functional group was expected to support Li ion transport. After carbonization at 600 °C, uniform LiFePO4 nanocomposite clusters with an average size of about 50-300 nm were obtained. The influence of the molar ratio between pluronic F127 and melamine-formaldehyde (i.e. F127:MF molar ratio as 0:1, 0.03:1, 0.3:1) on the LiFePO4 nanocomposite’s morphology and crystalline structure was investigated by using scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction technique. The results show that increasing F127 concentrations support more porous structure formation, leading to a higher surface area but does not affect the LiFePO4 nanocrystalline structure. According to the highest surface area, the N-doped carbon coated LiFePO4 composite product obtained from the molar ratio of F127:MF as 0.3:1 exhibited highest discharging specific capacity of 158.1 mAh g-1, at a rate of 0.1 C and also shows high cycle stability.

An amorphous styrene-acrylonitrile (SAN) copolymer has been modified by various concentrations of metal oxide (MeO) nano-particles up to 0.50 vol.%. Atomic force microscopy of the modified thermoplastics showed that the nano-particles were well dispersed in the matrix. The incorporation of the nano-particles had a marginal effect on the glass transition temperature and yield stress. However, the Young’s modulus increased with the volume fraction of the nano-particles. The fracture and fatigue properties also had a marked increase with the addition of the nano-particles. The fracture energy was increased from 316±10 J/m2 to 445±27 J/m2, and the maximum fracture energy threshold was increased from 17±1 J/m2 to 34±2 J/m2 at 23 °C. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies showed that debonding of nano-partilces, subesequent plastic void growth and large scale fibril deformation initiated by mulitiple crazing were observed in the process zone of the nano-modified composites.
