    (2020) Vangalapati M.; Sruthi T.; Koteshwara Rao C.; Surya Prakash D.V.; Anand Kumar N.; Monica Nissy S.; Sasikala V.
    Allium cepa (Onion) is considered as the most used vegetable in the world. The most common disease that turns chronic is the cataract disease. The occurrence of blurry vision which requires a surgery, is major ophthalmic disorder. This paper focuses on the therapeutic application of the flavonoid extract from the skin of Allium Cepa. The extraction of flavonoids from onion peel and their combination with silver particles showed the activity at its rest as nano particles. The "lipid peroxidase" test at the lab were tested against the cataract cell lines, which therefore resulted: only onion peel-1.47 μmoles MDA / gmFW; Nano sized skin of Allium cepa-3.25 μmoles MDA / gmFW. From the observations, Anti cataract activity of the silver nano particles from skin of Allium cepa showed better results than skin of Allium cepa. The nano particles were analyzed using SEM and XRD. © 2020 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
