Sustainable green synthesis of CeO 2 –ZnO nanocomposites using Rhazya stricta : enhanced synergistic solutions for biomedical challenges and environmental remediation
Abstract
). Furthermore, the composite provided an effective solution for environmental remediation, achieving 67.3 ± 4% catalytic degradation of methylene blue dye under solar irradiation. Hemolytic assays revealed a dose-dependent activity peaking at 59.1 ± 1.3%, indicating that while these materials possess significant membrane-disrupting potential, they offer a specialized bio-active alternative to traditional industrial catalysts. This research provides an evidence-based framework for scaling up multifunctional, bio-inspired nanomaterials to solve pressing sustainability challenges. Future research should focus on the multi-cycle stability and pilot-scale optimization of these green-synthesized nanocomposites to facilitate their practical implementation in industrial environmental remediation and clinical diagnostics.
