Thenanoparticles may be synthesized by harvestingleaves, drying theleaves, powdering the driedleaves, suspending the powderedleaves in a solution, and spraying the solution into boiling water under ultrasonic conditions to obtainnanoparticles. Thenanoparticles may be encapsulated by dissolving thenanoparticles and gum olibanum in ethanol to produce a mixture, injecting the inert organic phase of the mixture into an aqueous solution containing PVA, and homogenizing the aqueous solution. Thenanoparticles may be useful in preventing the growth of cancer cells and in treating diabetes by inhibiting &#x3b1;-glucosidase and/or &#x3b1;-amylase activity.

A method of fabricating probiotics nanowhiskers using cheese comprises cutting and grinding cheese to produce cheese powder; mixing the cheese powder with sulfuric acid to produce a solution; stirring the solution to produce a stirred solution; and filtering the stirred solution to produce the probiotics nanowhiskers. The fabricated probiotics nanowhiskers possess antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and antimicrobial properties. The probiotics nanowhiskers may reduce cadmium concentration in a patient's liver. The probiotics nanowhiskers may also ameliorate the oxidative stress assessed as a decrease in the serum MDA levels in a patient.

The method of treating diabetic wounds using biosynthesized nanoparticles includes administering an effective amount of silver and gold nanoparticles to a patient in need thereof. The silver and gold nanocomposite is prepared by 'biosynthesis', i.e., by providing a first aqueous solution of a noble metal salt or a noble metal oxide; providing a second solution of an aqueous plant extract, and combining the first solution and the second solution to produce a solution including nanoparticles of the noble metal. The second solution includes a plant extract obtained from-and. The metal salt can include silver nitrate (AgNO) and chloroauric acid (HAuCl). Nanoparticles of gold and nanoparticles of silver are prepared separately, and then mixed to obtain a composition containing a gold and silver nanocomposite.
