Formulation and characterization of Wrightia Tinctoria loaded zinc oxide nanoparticles by green synthesis
Keywords:
formulation, characterization, Wrightia Tinctoria, zinc oxide nanoparticles, green synthesisAbstract
In the recent years, nanotechnology has become an important research field of modern material sciences. Green synthesis has garnered wide interest due to its inherent features like rapidity, eco-friendly and cost effectiveness. Zinc oxide nanoparticles were synthesized using Wrightia Tinctoria leaf extract using sol-gel method. The formation of Zinc oxide nanoparticles is confirmed by FTIR. The characterization of the formulated nanoparticles was done by X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies showed the crystalline nature and revealed the purity of Zinc oxide nanoparticles. The morphological studies Transmission electron microscopic (TEM) the shape of the nanoparticles can be identified. The zinc oxide nanoparticles were found to be rod-shaped on Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The in-vitro antibacterial activity showed that the Wrightia tinctoria loaded zinc oxide nanoparticles were found to act against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
