Unveiling anticancer, antimicrobial, and antioxidant activities of novel synthesized bimetallic boron oxide-zinc oxide nanoparticles.

ABSTRACT: Bimetallic nanoparticles have received much attention recently due to their multifunctional applications, and synergistic potential at low concentrations. In the current study, bimetallic boron oxide-zinc oxide nanoparticles (B₂O₃-ZnO NPs) were synthesized by an eco-friendly, and cost-effective method through the utilization of gum arabic in the presence of gamma irradiation. Characterization of the synthesized bimetallic B₂O₃-ZnO NPs revealed the successful synthesis of bimetallic NPs on the nano-scale, and good distribution, in addition to formation of a stable colloidal nano-solution. Furthermore, the bimetallic B₂O₃-ZnO NPs were assessed for anticancer, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities. The evaluation of the cyto
