Antibacterial Activity and Cytotoxic Effect of Bisphosphonate Conjugated Gold Nanoparticle Synthesized using Asparagus racemosus Root Extract
Author(s): Sruthi H*, Navaneethan R and Rajeshkumar S
The nanoparticles can be surface modified to attach a variety of ligands which enable them to be biosensors, molecular-scale fluorescent tags, imaging agents, and targeted drug delivery vehicles. Green synthesis of nanoparticles is a type of bottom-up approach in which reaction occurs with the help of reducing and stabilizing agents. Bisphosphonates are increasingly being used to treat a wide range of skeletal issues, including hereditary skeletal disorders in children, cancer-related bone metastases and osteoporosis. Asparagus racemosus is a green edible medical plant used in Ayurvedic preparations to treat aging, vigor, immunity, longevity, and skeletal issues. It has been shown to have a variety of pharmacological properties, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antiseptic properties. Bisphosphonate conjugated with gold nanoparticle have shown to produce mor.. Read More»
