Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) have become an attractive biomaterial in research in the
past few years due to their extensive potential industrial applications. Being long chain …

Ag-based quantum dots (QDs) are semiconductor nanomaterials with exclusive
electrooptical properties ideally adaptable for various biotechnological, chemical, and …

The fabrication of silver nanoparticles was accomplished by γ-ray irradiation reduction of
silver nitrate in a chitosan solution. The obtained nanoparticles were stable in the solution …

In this paper composite materials, based on polymer blends of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA):
polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) with small optical band gap, has been studied. Silver sulfide (Ag …

In the present work, a novel method is exhibited for tuning the surface plasmon resonance
(SPR) peaks of silver nanoparticles based on chitosan-Poly (vinyl alcohol) blend polymer …

Gold nanoparticles were synthesized by reducing chloroauric acid with a glucan, isolated
from an edible mushroom Pleurotus florida, cultivar Assam Florida. Here, glucan acts as …

A novel approach was applied to synthesize silver nanoparticles using starch under
sonication. Colloidal silver nanoparticles solution exhibited an increase of absorption from …

In this study, superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles were individually prepared with one
of three polysaccharides as stabilizer, ie soluble starch, carboxymethyl cellulose sodium …

The development of environmentally benign methods for the synthesis of nanomaterials has
become increasingly relevant as chemists look to shape a more sustainable future. In this …

Alginate was used as a controlled environment for the growth of ZnO nanoparticles. The
formation of nanostructured particles was confirmed by a blue shift in the onset of the optical …
