Abstract
Nanotechnology, an interdisciplinary field that merges physics, chemistry, and biology, has emerged as a catalyst for innovation, offering far-reaching implications across various scientific disciplines. Gold nanoparticles (GNPs), with their unique physicochemical properties and biocompatibility,
have become a focal point in this technological revolution. This research delves into the eco-friendly synthesis of gold nanoparticles using Vigna unguiculata seed extract, a botanical resource known for its rich phytochemical composition. The study investigates the antiglycation activities
of these nanoparticles, drawing insights from existing literature. The synthesis process involves the reduction of gold ions by the bioactive compounds present in the Vigna unguiculata seed extract (VuS), leading to the formation of Vigna unguiculata derived GNPs (V-GNPs). Comprehensive
characterization techniques, including UV-Vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy, were employed to confirm the stability, size, and shape of the synthesized nanoparticles. The research aligns with recent studies suggesting the potential of gold nanoparticles in mitigating glycation-related
disorders. Glycation is a biochemical process implicated in various health complications, particularly diabetes. The antiglycation properties of V-GNPs, as revealed in this study, present an intriguing avenue for managing diabetes and associated complications. The unique composition of V-GNPs,
coupled with their promising antiglycation properties, underscores their potential as effective therapeutic agents in the fight against diabetes and other glycation-related disorders. This research not only contributes to the existing body of knowledge but also opens up new possibilities for
the application of V-GNPs in the realm of nanomedicine.
