RESUMEN
The Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2/Li-BioMOFs resin nanocomposites were prepared and introduced as a new dental resin nanocomposite. Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2/Li-BioMOFs resin nanocomposites were synthesized with individual mechanical properties in the presence of lecithin as a biostabilizer. The hydrothermal synthesis of hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanostructures occurred in the presence of Glycyrrhiza glabra (liquorice) root juice that acts not only as a green capping agent but also as a reductant compound with a high steric hindrance agent. Results showed that the mechanical properties of nano-Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 structures with a concentration of 60 ppm Li-BioMOF were increased by â¼132.5 MPa and 11.5 GPa for the flexural and Young's modulus, respectively. Based on the optical absorption ultraviolet-visible spectrum, the HAp nanocrystallites had a direct bandgap energy of 4.2 eV. The structural, morphological, and mechanical properties of the as-prepared nanoparticles were characterized with the FT-IR (Fourier-transform infra-red), UV-Vis (ultraviolet visible) spectrums, X-ray diffraction, SEM (scanning electron microscopy), and TEM (transmission electron microscopy) images, and atomic force microscopy (AFM). It is suggested that HAp structures loaded on the Li-BioMOFs are as a suitable and novel substrate which can be considered as a promising biomaterial in dental resin nanocomposites significantly improved the strength and modulus.

The development of effective nanoparticle therapeutics has been hindered by their surface characteristics, such as hydrophobicity and charge. Therefore, the success of biomedical applications with nanoparticles is governed by the control of these characteristics. In this article, we report an efficient green capping method for gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) by a reduction with sodium citrate and capping with Virola oleifera (Vo), which is a green exudate rich in polyphenols and flavonoids. The Vo-capped AuNPs were characterized by UV, DLS, FTIR, Raman, TEM, DPPH, FRAP and their cytotoxicity was evaluated on the viability of Murine macrophage cell. The AuNPs had an average particle size of 15â¯nm and were stable over a long time, as indicated by their unchanged SPR and zeta potential values. These nanoparticles were assessed for their antioxidant potential using DPPH and FRAP and demonstrated the highest antioxidant activities and low cytotoxicity. We propose that the Virola oleifera-capped AuNPs have potential biomedical applications.
