The resultant conjugates underwent comprehensive characterization employing various analytical techniques, including UV–visible spectroscopy, FTIR, RAMAN spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS) for size and zeta potential analysis, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Through these analyses, the morphological characteristics of the synthesized nanoparticles were elucidated, providing valuable insights into their structural properties. Subsequently, the cytotoxic effects of the caffeic acid-synthesized silver nanoparticles were assessed against A549 cells over a 48-h period by MTT assay. Remarkably, these nanoparticles exhibited significant toxicity towards the cells, with inhibitory effects observed at concentrations of 141 μg/ml for CA AgNPs. This underscores their potential as potent agents against cancer cells. Furthermore, the profound significance of caffeic acid-synthesized silver nanoparticles was evaluated specifically against A549 lung cancer cells. This was corroborated through cell cycle analysis, which demonstrated the potent anticancer activity of the caffeic acid-synthesized silver nanoparticles. Such findings suggest promising prospects for their utilization in diverse cancer treatment modalities. Overall, the successful synthesis and characterization of caffeic acid-synthesized silver nanoparticles underscore their potential as potent agents against cancer, particularly in combating A549 lung cancer cells. Further research and exploration into their mechanisms of action and potential synergistic effects with existing anticancer therapies could unveil additional avenues for their clinical translation and utilization in cancer management.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100959,"journal":{"name":"Next Nanotechnology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949829524000664/pdfft?md5=9247219ae7cadd0a89f02eb40bd67711&pid=1-s2.0-S2949829524000664-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142228813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Chalcogenide-based perovskites, on the other hand have been advanced as promising options, offering improved stability, less toxic compositions, and the potential for more cost-effective, scalable production. This review thoroughly examines the progress made in chalcogenide perovskite research, highlighting their tunable bandgaps for diverse applications, superior charge transport properties, and resilience against advanced weathering conditions such as moisture, oxygen, and UV light. The graphene-like characteristics of certain chalcogenide perovskites, which contribute to their high charge mobility and flexibility, make them strong candidates for the next-generation PV technologies. Furthermore, this work explores the expanding potential for indoor applications of these materials, including their integration into flexible indoor PSCs and other optoelectronic devices designed for controlled environments. Also, various synthesis and optimization strategies, such as advanced deposition techniques, precise doping methods, and innovative interface and additive engineering are presented, aimed at enhancing the PV performance of these materials.

Compared to other metal nanoparticles, ruthenium nanoparticles have high bio compatibility and they exhibit excellent photo-thermal effect. Though there are several reports in the literature on the anticancer potential of ruthenium complexes, ruthenium nanoparticles are not much investigated.
