A Study on Green Synthesis of Nanoparticles of Zinc Oxide using Algae and Plant Extract
Abstract: Green synthesis of metal nanoparticles is increasing trend worldwide. In green synthesis, metal oxide nanoparticles are synthesised through any plant extract or any bacterial, fungal or microalgal source. Synthesis of zinc-oxide nanoparticles have been studied by using algae and other biological extracts. In green synthesis usually use of synthetic chemicals is avoided and naturally abundant compounds like ascorbic acid or citric acid act as reducing agent which reduces metal salts …

Evaluation of Antimicrobial Activity using Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles
Abstract: The goal of the study was to use common laboratory techniques to create Zinc Oxide nanoparticles in a short amount of time and to check the antibacterial activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles on gram negative and gram positive bacteria. Wet chemical technique was used to make zinc oxide nanoparticles. Activity augmentation for Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were studied when used in combination with Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles. The Nps are …
