Özet
and Environmental ApplicationsParts of plants are used to carry out the reduction reactions.Although there are different methods for the synthesis of nanomaterials, biological synthesis is relatively cheap, environmentally friendly, and safe compared to other methods (Ahmadov and Ramazanli, 2019;Ramazanli and Ahmadov, 2022).The aim of the Research Topic on "Biological/Chemical-Based Metallic Nanoparticles Synthesis, Characterization, and Environmental Applications" was to provide an integrated view of the state-of-theartresearch on recent advances in biosynthesis, characterization of biological/chemicalbased nanomaterials, and their application by providing a comprehensive understanding of the topic through original research and review articles focusing on the biological synthesis method, in which bacteria, fungi, algae, and various.Here, we provide a brief editorial overview of the articles published on this Research Topic.Following the cost-effective green chemistry technique that uses plants, Khalid and colleagues chose Phyllanthus emblica (gooseberry) leaf extract for the synthesis of borondoped zinc oxide nanosheets as an antibacterial agent.Indeed, the applied methodology confirmed the efficacy of boron-doped zinc oxide nanosheets against Gram-negative bacteria (K.pneumonia and E. coli), and the linear attenuation coefficient was enhanced due to the increased amount of boron.They concluded that boron-doped zinc oxide nanosheets can be used as a radiation shielding material.As a water-soluble xanthene dye, Rhodamine B (RhB) has also been considered an organic pollutant in the environment and has been extensively used as a trace dye for water flow in
