Synthesis of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles, Study of Structure, Properties and Applications in Medicine

Zinc oxide nanoparticles are of great interest for use in various fields including biomedicine, food industry, agriculture, etc. Research objectives: study the synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles, structure, properties and application in medicine in wound healing. For the first time, synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles performed by chemical precipitation from zinc citrate, which saves energy, temperature and cost expensive equipment. The synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles have a cubic crystalline shape, ZnO nanoparticles size varies from 17 to 25.5 nm. The skin-irritating effect of the medicinal cosmetic gel based on zinc oxide and silver nanoparticles obtained by our method was not detected.
