Greener microwave synthesized Se nanospheres for antioxidant, cell viability, and antibacterial effect

Selenium nanocrystals (SeNPs) were developed using Coccinia grandis fruit (CGF) extract by green microwave approach. The morphological characters revealed that the quasi SeNPs with dimensions ranging from 12 to 24 nm have been arranged in encapsulated spherical geometries with dimensions ranging from 0.47 to 0.71 m. The DPPH assay revealed that SeNPs at a concentration of 70 µl of 99.2% had the greatest possible scavenging capacity. The nanoparticle concentrations were around 500 g/mL and the cellular uptake of SeNPs through living thing extracellular matrix cell lines in vitro was limited to 75.1 ± 3.8%. The biocidal activity was tested against E. coli, B. cereus, and S. aureus strains. Since it had the greatest MIC against B. cereus with 32 mm compared with the reference antibiotics. These incredible qualities of SeNPs suggest that attempting to manipulate multi-purpose nanoparticles for powerful and flexible wound and skin therapeutic innovations is very impressive.
