Green Synthesis, Characterization and Antibacterial Activity of CuO Nano Particle
Abstract:
A green low temperature combustion route is proposed for the synthesis of CuO nanoparticles, using Copper nitrate powder and Nigella sativa (Kalonji) seed extract as the starting materials. The formation of CuO Nps was characterized by PXRD, SEM, UV-Visible etc. The PXRD Pattern reveals that as-synthesized CuO Nps of monoclinic phase and Crystallite structure. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images reveal the morphology of the nanoparticles are spherical in shape. CuO Nps show significant antibacterial activity against both gram +ve and Gram-ve bacterial strains using agar well diffusion method. The present method brings out a promising green, simple, low cost and low temperature way to prepare multifunctional CuO nanomaterials.
