Role of Laser and Consciousness on the Nanoparticles: A Bio-Assay Study of Zinc Oxide Nano Particle against Culex quinquifasciatus (Say)
Journal Title: International Journal of Zoology and Animal Biology - Year 2020, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Can human consciousness affect nano synthesis? Can an observer’s effect be observed during experimentation? This is a significant question for future science. In nano-biotechnology, we can incorporate the uses of biological entities in the synthesis of nanoparticles. We have observed that the gel extract of Aloe barbadensis Mill. Integrated with Zinc oxide Nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) can actively act against Culex quinquifasciatus (Say) larvae. This is validated by the characterization of synthesized ZnO NPs via UV-Vis Spectroscopy, XRD and DLS analysis techniques. The efficacy test of synthesized ZnO NPs has been performed against different instars of Culex larvae. By increasing dose concentration of nanoparticles, % mortality also increased. It is also attempted to study how the amalgamation of Laser and Human consciousness can affect the geometry of nanoparticles, therefore by further experimentation we can predict about subtler energy levels of human attention which can also modify nano synthesis.
