Facile green synthesis of ZnO-RGO nanocomposites with enhanced anticancer efficacy

Maqusood Ahamed et al.

Summary: This study reports a method for synthesizing ZnO-reduced graphene oxide nanocomposites (ZnO-RGO NCs) using garlic clove extract, which is a simple, inexpensive, and eco-friendly approach. The ZnO-RGO NCs prepared in this way have enhanced anticancer activity and improved biocompatibility.

Effect of gamma irradiation on structural, morphological and optical properties of thermal spray pyrolysis deposited CuO thin film

Pooja Sarker et al.

Summary: This study explores the significant impacts of gamma irradiation on CuO thin films prepared using thermal spray pyrolysis technique on glass substrates. The research reveals changes in crystallographic, microstructural, and optical characteristics of the films, including a decrease in crystallite size, increase in dislocation density and lattice strain, as well as a reduction in optical energy band gap energies.

SnO2-Doped ZnO/Reduced Graphene Oxide Nanocomposites: Synthesis, Characterization, and Improved Anticancer Activity via Oxidative Stress Pathway

Maqusood Ahamed et al.

Summary: The SnO2-ZnO/rGO NCs demonstrated enhanced anticancer activity and better biocompatibility compared to SnO2-ZnO NPs and pure ZnO NPs. The mechanism of action involved the induction of apoptotic response in cancer cells through the oxidative stress pathway. Further studies on the antitumor activity of SnO2-ZnO/rGO NCs in animal models are warranted.

The MTT Assay: Utility, Limitations, Pitfalls, and Interpretation in Bulk and Single-Cell Analysis

Mahshid Ghasemi et al.

Summary: The MTT assay is commonly used in studies of cell toxicity, but it is often misinterpreted. Our research found that the assay measurements are influenced by various factors and require optimization and rational interpretation of the data to avoid misleading conclusions. While the assay can be a powerful tool, it also has limitations.

Synthesis of CuO/rGO nanocomposites for carcinogenic Congo red photodegradation

Do Quang Dat et al.

Summary: CuO microsphere assembled rGO nanosheets were successfully fabricated by a simple hydrothermal method for photocatalytic degradation of Congo red. The presence of H2O2 was found to be a key factor in enhancing the photocatalytic efficiency, with the content of 1 ml H2O2 (30%) showing the highest efficiency in removing over 95% of Congo red dye from solution under UV light radiation.
