Green synthesis of ZnO, MgO and SiO2 nanoparticles and its effect on irrigation water, soil properties, and Origanum majorana productivity

Abstract The synthesis of different metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) (e.g., ZnO, MgO and SiO2) using green methods is a promising alternative to traditional chemical methods. In this work, ZnO, MgO, and SiO2 NPs were prepared using lemon peel extract. The synthesized NPs were characterized using Four...
