Latex, a milky substance found in a variety of plants which is a natural source of biologically active compounds. In this study, Latex was collected from raw Carica papaya and was characterized using UV-Vis, FTIR and GC-MS analyses. Super Paramagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPIONs) were synthesized, coated with C. papaya latex (PL-Sp) and characterized using UV-Vis, FT-IR, SEM-EDX, XRD, VSM and Zeta potential analyses. SPIONs and latex coated SPIONs (PL-Sp) were used in batch adsorption study for effective removal of Methylene blue (MB) dye, where (PL-Sp) removed MB dye effectively. Further the PL-Sp was used to produce a nanoconjugate loaded with curcumin and it was characterized using UV-Vis spectrophotometer, FT-IR, SEM-EDX, XRD, VSM and Zeta potential. It showed a sustained drug release pattern and also found to have good antibacterial and anticancer activity.
乳胶,一种存在于多种植物中的乳白色物质,是具有生物活性化合物的天然来源。在这项研究中,乳胶是从生木瓜中提取的,并通过 UV-Vis、FTIR 和 GC-MS 分析进行了表征。超顺磁氧化铁纳米粒子(SPIONs)被合成,并用木瓜乳胶(PL-Sp)进行了包覆,并通过 UV-Vis、FT-IR、SEM-EDX、XRD、VSM 和 Zeta 电位分析进行了表征。SPIONs 和乳胶包覆的 SPIONs(PL-Sp)被用于分批吸附研究,以有效去除亚甲蓝(MB)染料,其中(PL-Sp)有效地去除了 MB 染料。此外,PL-Sp 被用于制备负载姜黄素的纳米缀合物,并通过 UV-Vis 分光光度计、FT-IR、SEM-EDX、XRD、VSM 和 Zeta 电位进行了表征。它显示出持续的药物释放模式,并且还被发现具有良好的抗菌和抗癌活性。
