Synthesis and characterization of titanium dioxide nanoparticles by chemical and green methods and their antifungal activities against wheat rust

The production of metallic nanoparticles (NPs) by green and ecofriendly methods has received consideration during the recent past. The present study summarized the comparative production of titanium dioxide (TiO2) NPs by plant extracts of Trianthema portulacastrum (T2) and Chenopodium quinoa (T3) and by conventional chemical (sol-gel) method (T1). Synthesized TiO2-NPs were examined by high-tech. techniques such as X-Ray Diffraction (XRD),...
