Biosynthesis of Antibacterial Silver Nanoparticles by Endophytic Fungus Nemania sp. Isolated From Taxus baccata L. (Iranian Yew)

Objectives: In this study, the mycosynthesis of silver nanoparticles was investigated using the endophytic fungi isolated from Taxus baccata L. (Iranian Yew). Methods: Endophytic fungi were isolated from Taxus baccata L. (Iranian Yew) and were subjected to mycosynthesis of silver…

Biophysical Assessment and Impact of Catalyst on the Properties of Polyurethane Drug Carriers

The metal complexes and amine compounds are the most frequent categories of catalysts used in polyurethanes synthesis. Unfortunately, all auxiliary substances added to a synthesis increase the toxicological risk of final products used in a therapy. In the present study,…

Biomolecular engineering of drugs loading in Riboflavin-targeted polymeric devices: simulation and experimental

The synthesis of polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) with efficient drug loading content and targeting moieties is an attractive field and remains a challenge in drug delivery systems. Atomistic investigations can provide an in-depth understanding of delivery devices and reduce the number…

Bio-inspired silver selenide nano-chalcogens using aqueous extract of Melilotus officinalis with biological activities

For the first time, an aqueous extract of Melilotus officinalis was used to synthesize bimetallic silver selenide chalcogenide nanostructures (Ag2Se-NCs). The formation of NCs was confirmed and characterized by UV–visible and FTIR spectroscopy, SEM and TEM imaging, XRD and EDX…
