Green synthesis and characterization of gold nanoparticles using endophytic fungi and its in-vitro anticancer and biomedical applications.

The present study aimed to explore the anticancer potentials of the gold nanoparticles (NPs) obtained by green synthesis method using an endophytic strain ATLOY - 8 has been isolated from the plant The formation of the NPs was analyzed by UV, FTIR, SEM and XRD. The synthesized NPs showed pink-ruby red colors and high peak plasmon band was observed between 510 and 560 nm. It is observed that inte...

Bioactive-guided structural optimization of 1,2,3-triazole phenylhydrazones as potential fungicides against Fusarium graminearum.

The phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium graminearum is the major causal agent of fusarium head blight (FHB), which is one of the most serious diseases in wheat. Based on our previous work, the 1,2,3-triazole phenylhydrazone scaffold was further optimized at three modification sites to improve its antifungal activity against F. graminearum. The optimization yielded compound 8d was discovered to be a po...
