Antibacterial activity and characterization of ZnO and Ag-doped ZnO nanoparticles fabricated using Leucophyllum frutescens leaf extract
Globally, there has been considerable interest in the environmentally benign production of transition-metal nanoparticles. This study describes the synthesis of ZnO and Ag-doped ZnO nanoparticles using the leaf extract of Leucophyllum frutescens via a simple green method. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). …
