Description
Summary:Nanoparticles are gaining importance in areas such as mechanics, optics, biomedical sciences, chemical industry, electronics, space industries, drug-gene delivery, energy science, catalysis, optoelectronic devices and photoelectrochemical applications6. [...]green synthesis of nanoparticles using plant extract has taken up its emergence due to various advantages such as cost effectiveness, less toxicity and simple procedures7. FTIR Spectroscopy analysis was carried out to detect the presence of functional groups that are present in the bract extract and on the surface of the synthesized Copper particle. Blue green colouration of the extract and the synthesized copper particle showed positive result for the polyphenol test. [...]the presence of polyphenol was identified.
