Green synthesis of copper nanoparticles using methanol extract of Passiflora foetida and its drug delivery applicationsBy Kirubandanan S, V. Subha, S. Renganathan
Abstract: The present study outlines a green synthetic approach on copper nanoparticles by mixing the copper salt solution with a methanol extract of leaves of Passiflora foetida. The plant extract play as a reducing agent for copper ions in copper solution into copper nanoparticles providing a safer process. The plant extract contains numerous secondary metabolites involving in the reduction of copper ions into forming nanoparticles. The spectroscopic analysis of green synthesized …

Response Surface Methodology to Optimize Deproteinization of Green Crab Shells (Carcinus maenas)By Kirubandanan S, V. Subha, S. Renganathan
Abstract: The crab shells are used as a feedstock for the extraction of either chitin or chitosan and other bioactive materials such as dyes and proteins. The optimum conditions are required for a process development for an effective separation of chitin. The most important parameters for deproteinization of green crab shells have identified the concentration of NaOH, temperature and time of contact. The optimum conditions for deproteinization of Green crab shells …
