Biologically Synthesized Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles and Carbon Tetrachloride as an Anti Cancer Drug: A Review

Abstract

Cancer is a life-threatening disease, curing it is one of the primary tasks for scientists around the world. One of the major fields that have exceptional abilities to control cancer is nanotechnology and nano medicines. Zinc oxide nanoparticles have flexible platforms for therapeutic and biomedical practice. There is a vital need to manufacture a new anti-cancerous drug. Zinc oxide nanoparticles have a great potential to act as an anti-cancerous drug. A common effect of zinc nanoparticle and carbon tetrachloride is the primary concern on the liver, biologically synthesized nanoparticles can be used for this cure purpose. This review study aims to explain the effects of synthesized nanoparticles on the rat in the presence of CCl4; Combination of toxic substance with the presence of nanoparticle can give us a better idea on the effectiveness of nanoparticle.
