Abstract

This work presents the synthesis of selenium-based nanoparticles via microwave-assisted heating and their subsequent characterization using UV-vis Spectroscopy (UV-Vis), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), techniques. Ongoing research includes the study of the nanoparticles capacity to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS).
