Biofabricated Aluminium Oxide Nanoparticles Derived from Citrus aurantium L.: Antimicrobial, Anti-Proliferation, and Photocatalytic Efficiencies

A current strategy in material science and nanotechnology is the creation of green metal oxide nanoparticles. Citrus aurantium peel extract was used to create aluminium nanoparticles (Al2O3 NPs) an efficient, affordable, environmentally friendly, simple manner. Various characterisation methods such as UV-vis spectrophotometer (UV), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) were utilised assess morphology Al2O3 NPs. The elemental composition performed by EDX analysis. Using well diffusion method, NPs’ antimicrobial properties against pathogenic organisms. antiproliferation efficacy a neuronal cell line investigated using MTT assay. photocatalytic activities studied methylene blue dye. In this study, NPs found have average crystallite size 28 nm XRD, absorption peak at 322 UV spectrum, functional groups from 406 432 FT-IR which ascribed stretching oxide. Antimicrobial efficiencies observed Pseudomonas aeruginosa [36 ± 2.12], Staphylococcus aureus [35 1.23], epidermis [27 0.06], Klebsiella pneumonia [25 1.65], Candida albicans [28 1.06], Aspergillus niger 2.23], proliferation PC 12 (54.09 31.2 μg/mL). Furthermore, degradation dye decreased up 89.1 percent after 150 min. investigation concluded that biosynthesised exhibit feasible antimicrobial, anti-proliferative, behaviours.
