OverviewAI-generated summary

Samaneh Goorani's research focuses on the synthesis and characterization of nanoparticles for various biomedical applications. Her work has investigated the anti-cancer, cytotoxic, and antioxidant properties of copper, tin, and silver nanoparticles synthesized using plant extracts, including <i>Calendula officinalis</i>, <i>Foeniculum vulgare</i>, and <i>Mentha piperita</i>. She has also explored the therapeutic potential of biosynthesized silver/chitosan nanoparticles in managing heart failure following myocardial infarction in rats. Other studies include the evaluation of copper oxide nanoparticles for cutaneous wound healing and investigations into the effects of microplastics and kidney injury models.

Goorani has published 59 papers with over 1,000 citations and an h-index of 14. She collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including John D. Imig, Abdul H. Khan, Abhishek Mishra, and Henry A. Palfrey, with whom she shares multiple publications, indicating a strong network within the institution.
