Biosynthesis of Zirconium nanoparticles with (Ocimum sanctum) Tulasi Leaves extract and its anti-inflammatory activities

摘要

The field ofnanotechnology is the most active area of research in modern science.In this present study zirconium nanoparticles were synthesized from aqueous zirconium nitrate (1mM) through a simple and eco-friendly route using leaf broth of Ocimum sanctum as reductant and stabilizer.The bioreducedzirconuiumnanoparticleswere characterized by UV-Vis spectrophotometer,Fourier transmission infra-red (FTIR),Transmission electron microscope(TEM) and X-ray diffraction( XRD)).The mean particle of synthesized nanoarticles as found to be 10 nm as confirmed by TEM. Tulsi leaves extracts ( ZrNPs) were found to have enhanced anti-inflammatory activity..
