Abstract:
In this study, the Copper oxide, Megnesium oxide and Silver oxide nanoparticles are biosynthesized by a novel, green chemistry procedure using the leaf extract of the medicinal plant
Pavetta indica Linn. The presences of various phytochemical constituents were identified through screening of ethanolic extract of plant
Pavetta indica Linn. The biosynthesis of CuO, MgO and Ag2O nanoparticles were accomplished by the literature reported standard method. The nanoparticles were subjected to the studies – X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy and Particle Size Analysis. The plant extract showed a significant anti inflammatory activity on denaturation of egg albumin.
