Overview

Randomized trial shows biological inertness of zirconium dioxide nanoparticles in targeted drug delivery, suggesting low toxicity.

Key Points

  • This research aims to synthesize zirconium dioxide nanoparticles using Peltophorum pterocarpum and assess their biological properties.
  • Utilized Peltophorum pterocarpum extract for nanoparticle synthesis through green chemistry.
  • Characterized nanoparticles using FTIR, XRD, FE-SEM, and HR-TEM techniques.
  • Evaluated biological properties through antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer assessments.
  • Zirconium dioxide nanoparticles had negligible antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer effects.
  • Molecular docking analysis revealed low binding affinity with target proteins, supporting biological inertness.
  • Nanoparticles exhibited biocompatibility and stability, indicating promise as safe nanocarriers for drug delivery.
