What is it about?

Application on silver nanoparticles and antioxidative properties. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are intensively investigated for their superior physical, chemical, and biological properties. A proper knowledge of these properties is essential to maximizing the potential applications of AgNPs in several areas while minimizing their risks to humans and the environment. The plant that use in this research is Mariposa (Butterfy wing) or specific name are Christia Vespertilionis. Butterfly Wing (Christia Vespertilionis) extract has the capabilities to cure cancer. It have been claimed as the anti-cancer agent as the alternative medicine. It was found that the extraction of ethyl have high inhibition of cancer cell whilst not affecting normal human fibroblasts. These extracts also caused a change of gene expression in both of the carcinomas and tumors. The result imply a great potential of use for Christia Vespertilionisagainst cancer .This plant is also used to treat snake bits, tuberculosis, heal bone fractures, increase blood circulation bronchitis and cold.

Why is it important?

Uncovering the benefits and effectiveness of local plants. Besides, further research on the nutritional content of local plants that are able to benefit the public.

Perspectives

Hopefully, help and share the results of the research that has been done as an amalgamation to others for further research
