Influence of Surface Coating towards the Controlled Toxicity of ZnO Nanoparticles In Vitro

Faruq Mohammad et al.

Summary: The surface chemical properties of ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) coated with different surfactant biomolecules were investigated to control toxicity-induced potentials. Changes in particle sizes, morphology, zeta potential, and hydrodynamic size were observed. Surface functionalization significantly altered the surface structures and functional groups of the ZnO NPs. Cell viability was between 70% and 95% for the surface-functionalized NPs, with lower percentages of apoptotic cells and reduced reactive oxygen species compared to pure ZnO NPs. The surfactant-ZnO NPs also slowed down DNA fragmentation and retained mitochondrial membrane integrity. The study highlights the importance of choosing suitable surface ligands for ZnO NPs in biomedical applications.

Summary: This study aims to produce green zinc oxide nanoparticles derived from red seaweed and evaluate their potential for removing Ismate violet 2R ions from water. The synthesized nanoparticles showed high effectiveness in removing IV2R and had a high dye adsorption capacity. The adsorption process followed the Freundlich adsorption model and pseudo-second-order reaction kinetics. The adsorption of IV2R onto the ZnO-NPs was a nonideal and reversible process on a nonuniform surface according to Freundlich adsorption isotherms. Thermodynamic parameters showed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. The ZnO-NPs synthesized by red seaweed hold promise for applications in water treatment for IV2R dye removal.
