DESCRIPTION:PhD Oral Defense of Kiruba Krishnaswamy\, Department of Bioreso
 urce Engineering\nResearchers in nanotechnology are turning towards “Natur
 e” to provide inspiration to develop novel innovative methods for nanopart
 icle synthesis. Currently used chemical and physical methods of nanopartic
 les synthesis use toxic chemicals in their synthesis protocols. The toxic 
 residues from these nanoparticles make them unsafe for food related applic
 ations. There is a need to develop nanoparticles using greener alternative
 s. Another challenging question that needs to be addressed is agricultural
  waste management. Merging these two problems led to the concept of creati
 ng wealth out of waste. Agricultural waste materials such as grape seeds\,
  skin\, stalk and organic waste generated during the Canadian fall season 
 due to the fall of maple leaves and pine needles were used in this study t
 o synthesize gold nanoparticles (AuNP). The main goal of this study is to 
 synthesize gold nanoparticles without using toxic chemicals in the synthes
 is protocol making them suitable for drug/ functional food delivery system
 s.\n\nEveryone in the McGill community is welcome to attend a PhD oral def
 ense. Please join us in celebrating the accomplishments of our PhD candida
 tes.
