The potential of gallic acid and ascorbic acid as green reducing agent in ZnO nanoparticle synthesis

In this study, method for the synthesis of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles for biomedical applications ideally involve the use of nontoxic, less hazardous reducing and capping agent as well as the selection of environmentally benign solvents. In this study, we had investigated the potential of gallic...
