Free radical scavenging effects of grapefruit essential oil nanoemulsion stabilized with carrageenan and its cytotoxicity assay on HeLa cell line

Free radical scavenging effects of grapefruit essential oil nanoemulsion stabilized with carrageenan and its cytotoxicity assay on HeLa cell line

Grapefruit peel essential oil exhibited antioxidant and antibacterial activities attributed to their phenolic and flavonoid compounds. In this study, nanoemulsion of grapefruit peel essential oil and carrageenan was investigated for their antioxidant p…

Study of the characterizationn of CdTe thin films prepared by the pulsed laser deposition technique with different laser energies

Study of the characterizationn of CdTe thin films prepared by the pulsed laser deposition technique with different laser energies

This research studied the effects of different laser energies on structural and optical properties. We prepared CdTe thin films by PLD technique using an Nd:YAG laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm and different energies (400, 500, 600, and 700 mJ). The …

Antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles created by one step nanosecond Nd: YAG laser ablation in water

Antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles created by one step nanosecond Nd: YAG laser ablation in water

The pulsed laser ablation in liquid (PLAL) technique was used to successfully synthesise silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). With the goal of controlling their size, a laser wavelength of 1064 nm was focused on the Ag bulk target immersed in distilled water…
