Background: The present study outlines the green synthesis of copper oxide (GS-CuO) nanoparticles using Magnolia champaca plant floral extract for the first time. Computational analysis showed the role of GS-CuO nanoparticles on cardiac enzymes ACE2 and SOD1 functional expression through hydrogen bond interaction with amino acid residues. Method: The synthesized GS-CuO nanoparticles were characterized by various techniques like X-Ray Diffraction, UVVis Spectrophotometer, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy and Transmission Electron Microscopy. Results: Nanoparticles demonstrate the presence of spherical shape and size 20 nm. The particles have many active sites and as compared to the bulk materials, and thus, the computational analysis was conducted against angiotensin-converting enzyme and superoxide dismutase to visualize the cardioprotective effects. Conclusion: The in-silico approach established valuable information on cardioprotective effects of green synthesized oxide nanoparticles using Magnolia champaca.

The present study is mainly aimed at the synthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles of varied size by green synthetic approach. The structural and morphological behavior of as-synthesized CuO nanoparticles were investigated using ultraviolet-visible spectral studies (UV-Vis), Fourier transform-Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The reduction of copper ions using aqueous extract of S. indica leaves produces nanoparticles of varied size and morphology. The images from SEM investigation revealed that the particles are spherical in shape with average diameter of 40–70 nm. TEM and HRTEM images clearly indicate the crystallinity and spherical nature of as-synthesized CuO nanoparticles with interplanar distance between two neighboring lattice fringes of 0.315 nm.

Abstract: Nanotechnology is a rising field of science and technology that deals with the particles having size in the range of 1 to 100 nm. Copper oxide nanoparticles has many properties like antifungal activity, antibacterial activity, optical properties, conductive properties, etc. Due to its demand of diversified use, copper oxide nanoparticles were fabricated using ecofriendly and non-toxic Annona muricata stem extract. The extract with copper sulphate pentahydrate showed gradual change in the colour of the extract from brown to green which indicates the CuO nanoparticles synthesis. The fabrication is followed by characterization of CuO nanoparticles using UV-vis spectroscope, FTIR, XRD and SEM. The characterization showed roughly spherical shaped nanoparticles in the range of 100nm with high crystalline monoclinic phase. FTIR absorption spectra conclude that the compounds attached with copper oxide nanoparticles could be polyphenols with aromatic ring. The CuO nanoparticles exhibited antibacterial activity; it showed the maximum activity against E.coli (18 mm). Keywords: Annona muricata, copper sulphate pentahydrate, FTIR, nanomaterials, SEM, XRD.

Copper oxide nanoparticles have been synthesized using micro reactors made of bis (2-ethylhexyle) sulfosuccinate (AOT)/water/n-Hexane microemulsions. The controls of particles size was achieved by varying water to surfactant molar ratio (W0). At constant of surfactant concentration the increases in value of W0increased the population of micelles and resulted in lager particle size. Their sizes and appearance were characterized by TEM, SEM, Zetasizer, uv-visible methods. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed the spherical morphology of as prepared CuO nanoparticles. The Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed 85 nm size of as prepared CuO particles.

To synthesise Copper oxide nanoparticles and study it's characterisation using UV -viz - Spectrophotometer and TEM.  Copper oxide nanoparticles are eco-friendly, cost-efficient and diverse utilisation all over the medical field. The shape of the CuO nanoparticles are spherical, and its characterisation is done using SEM, TEM, and UV-vis techniques. The size of the nanoparticles mediated in each plant extract differs from one another. MATERIALS AND METHODS  * Collection and Preparation of Plant extracts. * Synthesis Of CuONPs * Characterization of copper nanoparticles * preparation of nanoparticles powder. The plant extract is in green colour, and the CuO nanoparticles are seen in light yellowish in colour. Uv-VIS SPECTROMETER:  The particle size ranges from 2-100nm and shape is spherical. The graph reached its peak at the wavelength of 300nm. The TEM shows spherical shape, dispersion and versatile nanoparticles. They appear to be arranged in a cluster, open and quasi-linear superstructures. This research shows that CuO nanoparticles shows excellent biocompatibility. The particles which are smaller in size shows great immunity. Hence the nanoparticles are expected to be used in future for effective drug systems.
