Background: Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been used in various medicinal products because of its anti-microbial properties. This research study has reported a simplistic, cost effective and eco-friendly method for the synthesis of Silver nanoparticles. Objective: The objective of present study was to compare the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from various parts of Citrus maxima fruit like pulp, peel and seed. Methodology: The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by the use of UV-visible spectroscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Time-dependent synthesis of AgNPs was studied spectrophotometrically. UV–visible spectrophotometer was used to confirm the synthesis of AgNPs which showed maximum absorption at 410 nm, 420 nm and 430 nm respectively. Expected Results: Fresh peel extract exhibited the highest concentration of silver nanoparticles in comparison to pulp and seed. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra analysis confirmed the presence of possible functional groups in AgNPs which can be responsible for reduction of nanoparticles. Morphological characters of AgNPs were analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) depicting the particles size as 12.58-47.80 nm. The antibacterial property of synthesized AgNPs was analyzed viz Escherichia coli (MTCC 1687) and Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 902), specify them to be effective against both gram positive and gram negative bacteria. Conclusion: These results suggested that the fresh peel extract of Citrus maxima is a high-quality bioreductant for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles and have prospective for various biomedical applications.

Biological method for silver nanoparticles synthesis has been developed to obtain cost effective, clean, nontoxic, and ecofriendly size-controlled nanoparticles. The objective of this study is extracellular biosynthesis of antimicrobial AgNPs using cell-free supernatant of a localStreptomycessp. strain SSHH-1E. Different medium composition and fermentation conditions were screened for maximal AgNPs biosynthesis using Plackett-Burman experimental design and the variables with statistically significant effects were selected to study their combined effects and to find out the optimum values using a Box-Behnken design. The synthesized AgNPs were characterized using UV-visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Rapid biosynthesis of AgNPs was achieved by addition of 1 mM AgNO3solution to the cell-free supernatant. The produced particles showed a single surface plasmon resonance peak at 400 nm by UV-Vis spectroscopy which confirmed the presence of AgNPs.Streptomycessp. SSHH-1E was identified asStreptomyces narbonensisSSHH-1E. Transmission electron microscopy study indicated that the shape of AgNPs is spherical and the size is ranging from 20 to 40 nm. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis provides evidence for proteins as possible reducing and capping agents. Furthermore, the biosynthesized AgNPs significantly inhibited the growth of medically important pathogenic Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and yeast. The maximum biosynthesis of AgNPs was achieved at initial pH of 8, peptone of 0.5 g, and inoculum age of 48 h. The statistical optimization resulted in a 4.5-fold increase in the production of AgNPs byStreptomyces narbonensisSSHH-1E.

Hierarchical HZSM-5 were synthesised by controlled desilication in alkaline medium and characterised by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, inductively coupled plasma–atomic emission spectrometry, N2 adsorption–desorption, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The catalytic performance of HZSM-5 towards the selective oxidation of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol by H2O2 was evaluated. Recyclability tests were also carried out. The results showed that 2,3,5-trimethyl-1,4-benzoquinone was produced in high yields (i.e. 90 %), corresponding to a 2,3,6-trimethylphenol percentage of 98 %. The N2 adsorption–desorption and XRD studies suggested that mesopores with an average size of 5 nm were produced and that the structural character of HZSM-5 was preserved after desilication. Transmission electron microscopy analysis of the spent catalyst indicated good stability of the hierarchical structure. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy studies revealed the development of acid sites. The combined results suggested that the nature of the solvent, intrinsic acidity, and shape selectivity of the hierarchical structure of the catalyst ensured high catalytic properties.

Interaction of 3 -mercapto-1, 2- propanediol (3MPD) (C<sub>3</sub>H<sub>8</sub>O<sub>2</sub>S, 3MPD) with silver nanoparticles prepared by green method has been studied by electronic absorption spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Here we report the changes in properties of AgNP in presence of biologically relevant molecule 3MPD. The assembly and the aggregation of the AgNP are established using UV-Visible spectra and transmission electron microscopy. The biosynthesized AgNP has been used as colorimetric sensor for detection of 3MPD. A new peak generated at 612 nm due to the self aggregation of silver nanoparticles occurred by the interaction of thiol group present in 3 MPD with AgNP. A calibration curve between the absorbance at 612 nm and the concentration of 3 MPD enabled us to estimate 3MPD present in water in presence of SDS.

Agroindustrial byproduct mediated green synthesis of silver nanoparticles was carried out using cottonseed oilcake (CSOC) extract. The aqueous silver nitrate formed stable silver nanoparticles with CSOC extract as a reducing agent for Ag+to Ag0. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. The synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) (4 mM) significantly inhibited the growth of phytopathogens,Pseudomonas syringaepv.actinidiaeandRalstonia solanacearum. Further, cytotoxicity of AgNPs was evaluated using rat splenocyte cells. The splenocyte viability was decreased according to the increasing concentration of AgNPs and 90% of cell death was observed at 100 μg/mL.

The effect of La content and its incorporation route on physicochemical properties of ZnO/Zn(Al,La)2O4 or La2O3–ZnO/ZnAl2O4 mixed oxides with a spinel structure obtained from ZnAlLa Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) or ex-ZnAl LDH materials was investigated. The heterostructural nanocomposites with the similar Zn/Al molar ratio and varied La content were prepared by two techniques: via co-precipitation and thermal treatment of ZnAlLa LDHs at 500 °C or via incipient wetness impregnation of ex-ZnAl LDHs with aqueous solutions of lanthanum nitrate and subsequent thermal treatment. The obtained series of materials were characterized by the following techniques: X-ray fluorescence (XRF), N2 adsorption (BET), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis with evolved gas analysis (TG/DTG/EGA), scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FFT). The evaluation of activity toward the high-temperature water gas shift (HT-WGS) within the temperature range of 350–420 °C was carried out on the basis of rate constant measurements in the kinetic mode using a differential reactor. The co-precipitation technique allowed for a better distribution of La in bulk and on the spinel surface than in case of lanthanum incorporation via impregnation. ZnO/Zn(Al,La)2O4 or La2O3–ZnO/ZnAl2O4 mixed oxides were characterized by moderate activity in the HT-WGS reaction. The results reveal that introduction of lanthanum oxide over 2.4–2.8 wt% induces the phase separation of the ZnAl2O4 spinel, forming ZnO on the ZnAl2O4 spinel surface.
