Unveiling the structural dynamics and anticancer potential of zinc and iron oxide nanoparticles derived from <i>Allium cepa</i> peels
Iron oxide and zinc oxide nanoparticles were synthesized using Allium cepa skin extract. ZnO nanoparticles showed enhanced antioxidant activity, biocompatibility towards RBCs and superior anticancer effects against HT29/HepG2 cell lines.
