Metal nanoparticles (MNPs) have been extensively studied. They can be produced via different methods (physical, chemical, or biogenic), but biogenic synthesis has become more relevant, mainly for being referred by many as ...

This review presents the syntheses and characterizations of size and morphology, as well as the mechanistic aspects, of metallic oxide nanoparticles synthesized by biogenic processes. Furthermore, the importance of their ...

Copper nanoparticles have been the focus of intensive study due to their potential applications in diverse fields including biomedicine, electronics, and optics. Copper-based nanostructured materials have been used in ...

The biogenic synthesis of metallic nanoparticles can contribute to resolving problems related to pests and soil fertilization. Among the different types of metallic nanoparticles, iron nanoparticles have shown good results, ...

'Green nanotechnology' has attracted increasing attention in recent years because of the possibility to reduce and/or eliminate toxic substances. Indeed, biogenic syntheses of nanomaterials, such as nanoparticles (NPs), ...

Biogenic carbonates were studied as catalysts in this work for the direct synthesis of amides under solvent-free conditions. Solids were synthesized by microbial coprecipitation of CaCl2 and Ni salts and Cu and Fe salts. ...

Background: Biogenic nanoparticles possess a capping of biomolecules derived from the organism employed in the synthesis, which contributes to their stability and biological activity. These nanoparticles have been highlighted ...
