In this work, we have synthesized copper oxide nanoparticles using Iranian violaceae flower extract and explored its biological activity. Green synthesis has emerged as a reliable, sustainable and ecofriendly protocol for synthesizing a wide range of nanomaterials and hybrid materials. In this paper, we report the synthesis of Copper oxide nanoparticles by a simple biological route using the extract of Iranian violaceae flower and CuSO4, 5 H2O was used to synthesis the copper oxide Nanoparticles. The synthesized copper oxide nanoparticles were characterized using UV–visible spectroscopy, FTIR spectroscopy, FESEM, EDAX, and XRD techniques. UV –Visible analysis shows a characteristic peak around 266 nm for copper oxide nanoparticles and which is characteristic copper oxide nanoparticles. FTIR spectroscopy was used to characterize various capping and reducing agents present in the plant extract responsible for nanoparticle formation. The surface morphology was characterized using FESEM. The EDAX and XRD pattern suggested that prepared copper oxide nanoparticles were highly pure. The average particle size was calculated as 78.5 nm and α-copper oxide for all diffraction peaks (JCPDS card No. 41-1449) using the XRD technique. Our finding also support the synthesis of CuO NPs from Iranian violaceae flower sources due to relative abundance of plants for the production of reducing and stabilizing agents required for CuO NPs synthesis, potential efficiency of plant biomolecules in enhancing the toxicity effect of CuO NPs against microbes, prevention of environmental pollution due of nontoxic chemicals and degradation effectiveness of CuO NPs synthesized from plant sources. Furthermore, this study provides useful information on the rapid synthesis of CuO NPs with desired properties from plant extracts. Copper oxide NPs can have a good candidate for different applications.

Montmorillonite K10 (MMT K10) supported copper oxide nanoparticles (CuONPs) were synthesized by incorporating CuONPs onto the surface of MMT K10 by reducing the metal precursor with the help of hydrazine hydrate. Effects of various factors on the efficiency of composite to remove hexavalent chromium were studied to find out the optimum conditions for maximum removal. Under optimum conditions 15 mg of the synthesized nanocomposite was found capable to almost completely remove (99.9%) hexavalent chromium in 30 min from a 10 ppm aqueous chromium solution and that too in a wide range of pH from 2.88 to 5.56. The synthesized MMT K10 supported CuONPs were characterized by UV, SEM-EDX, FTIR and XRD studies. The average particle size of supported CuONPs was found to be 22.9 nm. Antibacterial potential of the prepared composite was also studied for one Gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25323) and one Gram-negative bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 27853). The prepared nanocomposite was found to have excellent bactericidal potential and its statistical analysis was performed using t-test which indicates both bacterial strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus show different zone of inhibition for different concentrations.

Abstract In this work, we reported the green synthesis of Solanum nigrum extract capped copper oxide nanoparticles (SN@CuO NPs) at room temperature, avoiding harsh, toxic, and environment unfriendly chemicals. The synthesized SN@CuO NPs, were analyzed with the help of spectroscopic techniques. UV-visible spectroscopy confirmed the synthesis of SN@CuO NPs in reaction mixture while fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) results revealed capping of phytochemicals of Solanum nigrum over the surface of CuO NPs. Morphology and elemental composition of formed SN@CuO NPs were explored with the help of FE-SEM, TEM, and EDS, respectively. Crystalline nature, surface charge and specific surface area was characterized using XRD pattern, DLS and BET analyses, respectivley. The data obtained from spectroscopic analyses specified the formation of mesoporous, positively charged and highly stabilized CuO nanoparticles due to adsorption of phytochemicals present in Solanum nigrum leaf extract on the CuO nanoparticle’s surface. SN@CuO NPs have shown promising catalytic activity towards reduction of highly carcinogenic dye Congo red making use of sodium borohydride. Negatively charged reactants like anionic Congo red molecules and BH4− ions eagerly adsorbed on positively charged, small sizes (5–6 nm), mesoporous SN@CuO NPs surface having wide surface area. It is proposed that BH4− ions interacted with SN@CuO NPs to form Cu tetrahydroborates dihydrogen bonded (DHB) tetrahedral L2Cu(ɳ2-BH4) complex, which is proved as an effective reducing agent. This complex acts as dihydrogen source for rapid reduction of azo bond. UV-visible, FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and LC-MS studies of reaction mixture at different reaction stages have shown that the major degradation intermediates were benzidine and α-naphthol. The apparent rate constants for the products at intermediate and final degradation stages have been found to be 0.468 min− 1 and 0.0189 min− 1, respectively. A plausible degradation mechanism for Congo red reduction has also been proposed in this study.

AbstractEnvironmentally friendly copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) were prepared with a green synthesis route without using hazardous chemicals. Hence, the extracts of mint leaves and orange peels were utilized as reducing agents to synthesize CuO NPs-1 and CuO NPs-2, respectively. The synthesized CuO NPs nanoparticles were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis (EDX), BET surface area, Ultraviolet–Visible spectroscopy (UV–Vis), and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR). Various parameters of batch experiments were considered for the removal of Pb(II), Ni(II), and Cd(II) using the CuO NPs such as nanosorbent dose, contact time, pH, and initial metal concentration. The maximum uptake capacity (qm) of both CuO NPs-1 and CuO NPs-2 followed the order of Pb(II) > Ni(II) > Cd(II). The optimum qm of CuO NPs were 88.80, 54.90, and 15.60 mg g−1 for Pb(II), Ni(II), and Cd(II), respectively and occurred at sorbent dose of 0.33 g L−1 and pH of 6. Furthermore, isotherm and kinetic models were applied to fit the experimental data. Freundlich models (R2 > 0.97) and pseudo-second-order model (R2 > 0.96) were fitted well to the experimental data and the equilibrium of metal adsorption occurred within 60 min.

Amongst different living organisms studied as potential candidates for the green synthesis of copper nanoparticles, algal biomass is presented as a novel and easy-to-handle method. However, the role of specific biomolecules and their contribution as reductant and capping agents has not yet been described. This contribution reports a green synthesis method to obtain copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO-NPs) using separated protein fractions from an aqueous extract of brown algae Macrocystis pyrifera through size exclusion chromatography (HPLC-SEC). Proteins were detected by a UV/VIS diode array, time-based fraction collection was carried out, and each collected fraction was used to evaluate the synthesis of CuO-NPs. The characterization of CuO-NPs was evaluated by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), Z-potential, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) equipped with Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) detector. Low Molecular Weight (LMW) and High Molecular Weight (HMW) protein fractions were able to synthesize spherical CuO-NPs. TEM images showed that the metallic core present in the observed samples ranged from 2 to 50 nm in diameter, with spherical nanostructures present in all containing protein samples. FTIR measurements showed functional groups from proteins having a pivotal role in the reduction and stabilization of the nanoparticles. The highly negative zeta potential average values from obtained nanoparticles suggest high stability, expanding the range of possible applications. This facile and novel protein-assisted method for the green synthesis of CuO-NPs may also provide a suitable tool to synthesize other nanoparticles that have different application areas.

We studied the structural and antimicrobial properties of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) synthesized by a very simple precipitation technique. Copper (II) acetate was used as a precursor and sodium hydroxide as a reducing agent. X-ray diffraction patter (XRD) pattern showed the crystalline nature of CuO NPs. Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and field emission transmission electron microscope (FETEM) demonstrated the morphology of CuO NPs. The average diameter of CuO NPs calculated by TEM and XRD was around 23 nm. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) spectrum and XRD pattern suggested that prepared CuO NPs were highly pure. CuO NPs showed excellent antimicrobial activity against various bacterial strains (Escherichia coli,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Klebsiella pneumonia,Enterococcus faecalis,Shigella flexneri,Salmonella typhimurium,Proteus vulgaris,andStaphylococcus aureus). Moreover,E. coliandE. faecalisexhibited the highest sensitivity to CuO NPs whileK. pneumoniawas the least sensitive. Possible mechanisms of antimicrobial activity of CuO NPs should be further investigated.
