The pHpzc was determined by graphing the starting pH (pH I ) of the suspensions against their final pH (pH F ) in Fig. 10(a) , resulting in the bisector displayed. Before pHpzc, the suspension's final pH was higher than pHpzc. For CeO 2 -NPs, the pHpzc value was 8.71 at the point where this curve crossed the bisector. Plotting this curve, ΔpH (the difference between pH I and pH F ), against pH I is shown in Fig. 10(b) . The pHpzc value is the point on the curve where ΔpH is zero, or the point where the curve crosses the x -axis. According to both plots, the pHpzc of synthesized CeO 2 -NPs is roughly 8.7. 55

In vitro , the drug release kinetic were analyzed using various models and equations, including zero-order, first-order, Higuchi, and Korsemeyer–Peppas models ( Table 5 ). To determine the kinetic model of the MTZ release from CeO 2 -NPs release, the obtained release data (until 180 min) were fitted to the above-mentioned equations. The obtained plots at pH 1.2 and pH 7.4 are depicted in Fig. 14 and 15 .
Kinetics model | Constants | Correlation coefficients (R ) |
pH 1.2 | pH 7.4 | pH 1.2 | pH 7.4 |

The Higuchi model kinetics equation for acidic buffer pH 1.2 yielded the highest value of the determination coefficient ( R 2 ), which was 0.9944. The Korsmeyer–Peppas kinetic model was the most appropriate for basic buffer pH 7.4, and its coefficient ( R 2 ) was 0.9834. When it comes to drug release systems with one-dimensional diffusion, the Higuchi model offers a foundation for comprehending the kinetic mechanism. As we looked at the in vitro MTZ release CeO 2 -NPs results, we saw that the correlation coefficients ( R 2 ) of the Higuchi model of MTZ release CeO 2 -NPs at pH 1.2 were close to 1. This means that the model fits the data the best. Furthermore, the value of the correlation coefficients ( R 2 ) of the Korsmeyer–Peppas kinetic models of MTZ release CeO 2 -NPs at pH 7.4 was found to be close to 1, and the calculated diffusional exponent “ n ” for the release of MTZ in CeO 2 -NPs by the Korsmeyer–Peppas model is 0.1264. According to Korsmeyer–Peppas results n < 0.43, it was proved that the release mechanism is controlled by Fickian diffusion for CeO 2 -NPs. The drug molecules in this investigation are bonded to and adsorbed onto the active regions of the nanoparticles. 61,62 In addition, different papers reported that MTZ drug release kinetics by nano carriers followed the previously mentioned models ( Table 6 ).

| Degradation of methylene blue dye by CeO -NPs under UV irradiation. | |
3.6 Mechanism of photocatalytic decay
|
| Mechanism of photodegradation of MB dyes using CeO -NPs. | |
Superoxide radicals (O 2 − ) are created when electrons oxidize attractive oxygen, forming hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) that form the pore water molecules ions. Significantly affecting the degradation of the dye was the formation of apertures and electrons in the valence and conduction bands. The following is the photocatalysis reaction mechanism: 42,66
| CeO (h ) + H O → OH˙ + H | (20) |
| O ˙ + MBdye → CO + H O | (22) |
| OH˙ + MBdye → CO + H O | (23) |
The oxygen and water molecules are adsorbed on the photocatalyst's surface. These molecules react with the electron–hole pairs ( eqn (20) and (21) ) to produce the unstable hydroxyl radicals (OH˙) and superoxide ions (O 2 ˙ − ), which oxidize the organic pollutants into inorganic compounds ( eqn (22) and (23) ).

The key pathways for synthesizing nanoparticles are physical and chemical, usually expensive and possibly hazardous to the environment. In the recent past, the evaluation of green chemistry or biological techniques for synthesizing metal nanoparticles from plant extracts has drawn the attention of many researchers. The literature on the green production of nanoparticles using various metals (i.e., gold, silver, zinc, titanium and palladium) and plant extracts is discussed in this study. The generalized mechanism of nanoparticle synthesis involves reduction, stabilization, nucleation, aggregation and capping, followed by characterization. During biosynthesis, major difficulties often faced in maintaining the structure, size and yield of particles can be solved by monitoring the development parameters such as temperature, pH and reaction period. To establish a widely accepted approach, researchers must first explore the actual process underlying the plant-assisted synthesis of a metal...

Metal nanoparticles (MNPs) produced by green approaches have received global attention because of their physicochemical characteristics and their applications in the field of biotechnology. In recent years, the development of synthesizing NPs by plant extracts has become a major focus of researchers because of these NPs have low hazardous effect in the environment and low toxicity for the human body. Synthesized NPs from plants are not only more stable in terms of size and shape, also the yield of this method is higher than the other methods. Moreover, some of these MNPs have shown antimicrobial activity which is consistently confirmed in past few years. Plant extracts have been used as reducing agent and stabilizer of NPs in which we can reduce the toxicity in the environment as well as the human body only by not using chemical agents. Furthermore, the presence of some specific materials in plant extracts could be extremely helpful and effective for the human body; for instance, polyphenol, which may have antioxidant effects has the capability for capturing free radicals before they can react with other biomolecules and cause serious damages. In this article, we focused on of the most common plants which are regularly used to synthesize MNPs along with various methods for synthesizing MNPs from plant extracts.

This review focuses on the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using various plant sources. Nano biotechnology focus on the use of living organisms plants for engineering nanoparticles and its biomedical, pharmaceutical applications. Plants extracts provide rapid, cost effective and eco-friendly sources for fabrication of metallic nanoparticles. Green biological method of synthesizing nanoparticles has materialized as alternative to overcome the curb of conventional methods such as synthesized by several physical and chemical methods including chemical reduction of ions in aqueous solution with or without stabilizing agent and reduction in inverse micelles or thermal decomposition in organic solvents. Employing plants towards synthesis of nanoparticles has advantageous over non biological methods as with the presence of broad variability of bio-molecules in plants can act as capping and reducing agents and thus increases the rate of reduction and stabilization of nanoparticles. Thus biosynthesized metallic nanoparticles of variable size and shape have broad potential applications in life and science.

Nanotechnology focuses on materials at the molecular and atomic levels, with sizes ranging from 0.1 to 100 nm. This study explores the synthesis and characterization of copper oxide (CuO), nickel oxide (NiO), and hybrid nanoparticles using an aqueous seed extract from Myristica fragrans. The nanomaterials underwent comprehensive characterization employing various techniques: UV analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, XRD, TGA, EDX and SEM. We explored their biological applications through antioxidant and antibacterial assays. UV analysis determined the optical absorption spectra values for CuO, NiO and hybrid nanoparticles. FTIR analysis confirmed functional groups in the plant extract responsible for capping and reducing the reaction medium. XRD and SEM analysis demonstrated the crystalline nature and morphology of the nanoparticles. CuO nanoparticles exhibited polyhedral morphology, while NiO nanoparticles were primarily spherical with some agglomeration. The CuO-NiO hybrid nanoparticles showed a wurtzite morphology with significant agglomeration and larger mean size than CuO and NiO nanoparticles. EDX indicated higher quantities of Cu and Ni. XRD spectra revealed the average particle sizes of nanoparticles. TGA indicated the thermal stability of the nanoparticles, with hybrid nanoparticles being the most stable. The nanoparticles exhibited excellent antioxidant activity, with hybrid nanoparticles showing the highest values in measuring total antioxidant capacity, total reducing power (TRP), ABTS assay, and DPPH-free radical scavenging assay at 400 μg/mg. Antibacterial assays against multidrug-resistant bacterial strains demonstrated that antibiotics-coated hybrid nanoparticles exhibited potent antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In conclusion, CuO, NiO, and CuO-NiO hybrid nanoparticles mediated by Myristica fragrans showcase promising characteristics for various applications, especially in biomedical and clinical settings. The nanoparticles eco-friendly synthesis and biocompatible nature make them attractive candidates for future research and development.
