Therefore, the present study employed <i>Ocimum basilicum</i> seed extract to synthesize silver nanoparticles.

The average crystal size calculated using X-ray diffraction analysis was 6.7 nm. Energy-dispersive X-ray analysis clearly displayed the presence of silver ions in the elemental structure of the synthesized nanoparticles. The morphology of synthesized nanoparticles revealed by scanning electron microscopy was documented in terms of spherical shape surrounded by an organic layer and nanoparticle size was estimated to be in between 10 and 80 nm. The nanoparticles exhibited substantial antibacterial activity against 46 foodborne bacterial isolates and 15 clinical isolates of <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>, with the largest inhibition zones measuring 24 and 13 mm, respectively. Minimum inhibitory concentration values ranged between 500 and 800 µl/ml for various isolates. The antibacterial effect of all antibiotics revealed considerable enhancement when combined with nanoparticles. The calculated fractional inhibitory concentration index values were &lt; 1 validating excellent synergism between nanoparticles and all antibiotics except ciprofloxacin against the majority of bacterial isolates. Interestingly, the biogenic nanoparticles showed significant antioxidant potential with IC<sub>50</sub> value of 165 µg/ml as well as anti-inflammatory activity with an IC<sub>50</sub> value of 82 µg/ml.

This method not only ensures the preservation of the bee venom’s bioactive components but also enhances their potential stability, thus broadening the scope for their applications in the biomedicinal field. The synthesis method started with the homogenization suspension of bee venom, followed by its hydrothermal process to synthesize bee venom nanoparticles (BVNPs). The successful synthesis of BVNPs was characterized using various characteristic techniques such as Ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) spectroscopy, Fourier Transforms Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy, Zeta Potential (ZP), Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LCMS), and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). The synthesis of BVNPs through biosynthesis is shown by the visible violet-brown color development at 347 nm by UV–Vis spectroscopy. FTIR analysis revealed the presence of several functional groups in the BVNPs, including alcohols (–OH), phenols (C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>5</sub>–), carboxylic acids (–COOH), amines (–NH<sub>2</sub>, –NH–), aldehydes (–CHO), ketones (–CO–), nitriles (–CN), amides (–CO–N–), imines (–CNH–), esters (–COO–), and polysaccharides. These functional groups, as confirmed by their specific stretching and bending vibrational modes, contribute to the diverse biological activities of BVNPs, including cytotoxicity against MCF-7 breast cancer cells. The ZP of the BVNPs indicated good colloidal stability at − 45 mV. LCMS analysis confirmed the presence of major bioactive molecules, including melittin &amp; apamin and TEM analysis shows the BVNPs exhibited a quasi-spherical shape with good dispersion, the average size was approximately 25 nm, with some being smaller (quantum dots) and interplanar spacing of 0.236 nm indicated a highly ordered crystalline structure. Moreover, the anticancer efficacy of the BVNPs was ascertained through in vitro assays against MCF-7 breast cancer cells, showing a dose-dependent cytotoxic effect.

While there have been attempts to enhance capacitor technology, these solutions increase manufacturing cost and complexity. Additionally, Silicon-based capacitorless memories have been reported, but they still suffer from serious difficulties regarding reliability and power consumption. Here, we propose a novel Schottky barrier memory (SBRAM), which is free of the complex capacitor structure and features a heterojunction based on bandgap engineering. SBRAM can be configured as vertical cross-point arrays, which enables high-density integration with a 4F<sup>2</sup> footprint. In particular, the Schottky junction significantly reduces the reverse leakage current, preventing sneak current paths that cause leakage currents and readout errors during array operation. Moreover, the heterojunction physically divides the storage region into two regions, resulting in three distinct resistive states and inducing a gradual current slope to ensure sufficient holding margin. These states are determined by the holding voltage (<i>V</i><sub>hold</sub>) applied to the programmed device. When the <i>V</i><sub>hold</sub> is 1.1 V, the programmed state can be maintained with an exceptionally low current of 35.7 fA without a refresh operation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51136,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscale Research Letters","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11458837/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142395722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Advancements in wound management: integrating nanotechnology and smart materials for enhanced therapeutic interventions","authors":"Simran Nasra,&nbsp;Sanjali Pramanik,&nbsp;Vidhi Oza,&nbsp;Krupa Kansara,&nbsp;Ashutosh Kumar","doi":"10.1186/s11671-024-04116-3","DOIUrl":"10.1186/s11671-024-04116-3","url":null,"abstract":"<div><p>Wound management spans various techniques and materials tailored to address acute and chronic non-healing wounds, with the primary objective of achieving successful wound closure. Chronic wounds pose additional challenges, often necessitating dressings to prepare the wound bed for subsequent surgical procedures like skin grafting. Ideal dressing materials should not only expedite wound healing but also mitigate protein, electrolyte, and fluid loss while minimizing pain and infection risk. Nanotechnology has emerged as a transformative tool in wound care, revolutionizing the landscape of biomedical dressings. Its application offers remarkable efficacy in accelerating wound healing and combating bacterial infections, representing a significant advancement in wound care practices. Integration of nanotechnology into dressings has resulted in enhanced properties, including improved mechanical strength and controlled drug release, facilitating tailored therapeutic interventions. This review article comprehensively explores recent breakthroughs in wound healing therapies, with a focus on innovative medical dressings such as nano-enzymes. Additionally, the utilization of smart materials, like hydrogels and electroactive polymers, in wound dressings offers dynamic functionalities to promote tissue regeneration. Emerging concepts such as bio-fabrication, microfluidic systems, bio-responsive scaffolds, and personalized therapeutics show promise in expediting wound healing and minimizing scarring. Through an in-depth exploration of these advancements, this review aims to catalyze a paradigm shift in wound care strategies, promoting a patient-centric approach to therapeutic interventions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51136,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscale Research Letters","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11445205/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142360717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
