Abstract

To study the biosynthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles using herbal formulation and its characterisation. To study the copper oxide nanoparticles biosynthesis using Moringha oriefera (I) Synthesis of nanoparticles using copper sulphate (II) Characterisation of nanoparticles using UV-visual spectroscopy. The size of the synthesised nanoparticles are found to be 2-100nm. The graph reached its peak at the wavelength of 300nm using UV-vis spectroscopy. The shape is spherical. These TEM and UV spectroscopic analysis confiirmed the synthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles. Overall results, confiirmed the size and shape of CuO nanoparticles using this process and suggested their applications in biomedicine. The biosynthesized copper oxide nanoparticles are spherical in shape with an average size of 2-100nm. The present research about the biosynthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles using the plant extract Moringa Oleifera has excellent biocompatibility. The particles which are smaller in size shows more immunity. Hence the nanoparticles are expected to be used in future for the effective drug systems and immunity against diseases.
