Scalable bio-friendly method for production of homogeneous metal oxide nanoparticles using green bovine skin gelatin

The use of bovine skin gelatin in the synthesis of variety of nanostructures is a bio-friendly approach. In the current study, we investigated experimentally, for the first time, scalable process for production of homogeneous hexagonal zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) not only with narrow size dis...

Scalable bio-friendly method for production of homogeneous metal oxide nanoparticles using green bovine skin gelatin
description The use of bovine skin gelatin in the synthesis of variety of nanostructures is a bio-friendly approach.
