Abstract

En 中文
Iron oxide nanostructures have been grown biogenically, using Ageratum conyzoides L. extract, and characterized in terms of XRD, XPS, EDX, IR, UV, SEM, Zeta potential and HR-TEM studies. The SEM and TEM studies revealed that it consists of irregular cubic-shaped structures of 34–50 nm size. The synthesized materials exhibited antidiabetic and antioxidant potential with an IC₅₀ of 41.74 ± 0.6 µg/mL and an IC₅₀ of 61.8 µg/mL, respectively. It exhibited anticancer potential against the MCF-7 cell line, with the IC50 value of 373.08 µg/mL in the in vitro cytotoxicity cell study of the biogenic synthesis of iron oxide nanostructures.
