Green synthesis and characterization of zinc oxide nanoparticle using insulin plant ( <i>Costus pictus D. Don</i> ) and investigation of its antimicrobial as well as anticancer activities

In this work we aim to synthesize biocompatible ZnO nanoparticles from the zinc nitrate via green process using leaf extracts of the Costus pictus D. Don medicinal plant. FTIR studies confirm the presence of biomolecules and metal oxides. X-ray diffraction (XRD) structural analysis reveals the forma... View More
