Integrated physiological and antioxidant responses in roots and shoots underpin aluminium tolerance in sesame

Aluminium (Al 3+ ) phyto-toxicity is detrimental to crop productivity on acidic soils across tropical and subtropical climates. Sesame ( Sesamum indicum L.) is a high-valued oilseed crop of these regions, yet its physiological responses to Al 3+ toxicity is critically undefined c...

α-Amylase-Assisted Microwave Synthesis of SnO 2 Nanostructures with Defect-Related Surface Chemistry for Photocatalytic and Biological Applications

A rapid and sustainable microwave-assisted green synthesis was developed for α-amylase-assisted tin oxide nanoparticles (ZjL-SnO 2 NPs) using Ziziphus jujuba leaf extract as a natural reducing, capping, and stabilizing agent. The biomacromolecule-mediated route generated highly c...
