Green Synthesis And Characterization Of Iron Oxide and Copper Oxide Nanoparticles Using Blumea Lacera Leaf Extract And Evaluation Of Antibacterial Activity
Main Article Content
Abstract
An iron and copper oxide nanoparticles manufacturing technique was prepared using a leaf extract of Blumea lacera. The green-synthesized iron and copper nanoparticles were analyzed using UV-visible absorption spectrophotometry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and EDS. The results revealed that iron oxide nanoparticles exhibit an uneven spherical form, with sizes ranging from 15.73 nm to 32.37 nm. The antimicrobial efficacy of iron and copper oxide nanoparticles made using green methods was tested against four bacterial human diseases. The iron and copper oxide nanoparticles produced using green synthesis showed the highest antibacterial effectiveness at a concentration of 20 mm/disc and the lowest effectiveness at 13 mm/disc concentrations. The current study emphasizes that iron and copper oxide nanoparticles generated by green methods have the potential to be used as antibacterial agents
