Gum arabic as natural stabilizing agent in green synthesis of ZnO nanofluids for antibacterial application

This work is part of a responsible green approach for the development of nanotechnology. Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanofluids are known as one of the versatile inorganic materials used in health-related applications with effective antibacterial activities. In this study, ZnO nanofluids were synthesized by a...
