Synthesis of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Using Stem Extract of <i>Citrullus colocynthis</i>, Characterization and Evaluation of its Antibacterial Activity

In the current investigation, an attempt is made to synthesize and characterize Citrullus colocynthis stem extract loaded Zinc Oxide Nano Particles (ZnONP-Cc) evaluate cytotoxicity antimicrobial activities of same. The synthesis ZnONP-Cc was carried out characterization in terms UV-Spectrum, Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FT-IR) spectrum, Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) Scanning (SEM) analysis were done. cytotoxic evaluated using established protocol. UV-Spectrum significant SPR peak observed at 350 nm FT-IR spectrum exhibited several biomolecules with their chemical entities. Through XRD method, zinc oxide nanoparticles Face-Centered Cubic (FCC) structure confirmed. SEM TEM confirm synthesized round oval shape size ranging from 10 - 20 nm. possess activity against wound pathogens it found be non-toxic Brine shrimp nauplii. conclusion, can exploited nanomedicine since has without any toxicity.
