Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of zinc oxide nanoparticls (ZnONP’s) using Ficus religiosa and Azadirachta indica leaves extracts has been presented in this work. Synthesis conditions were optimized for maximal and narrow size range synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles. Fine nanorods were formed. The resultant nanomaterials were characterized using various analytical techniques such as SEM, XRD, FTIR, MTT assay. It is suggested that Ficus religiosa and Azadirachta indica leaf extracts can be effectively used for synthesizing nanoparticles. Also that the green synthesized ZnO nanoparticles can be used as an alternative to existing antimicrobial agents. Nanorods would show good semiconductor properties too.
