What is Zirconia Nanoparticles from Fusarium Oxysporum about?

This document summarizes a study that found the fungus Fusarium oxysporum is capable of biosynthesizing zirconia nanoparticles when challenged with aqueous ZrF6 solutions. Extracellular proteins secreted by the fungus with molecular weights around 24-28 kDa were shown to hydrolyze the ZrF6 complexes, resulting in the room temperature formation of crystalline zirconia nanoparticles. This biological synthesis method opens possibilities for large-scale production of technologically important oxide materials li
