Abstract
Synthesis of metal nanoparticles using plant extracts is environmentally friendly and of increasing interest. However, not all plant extracts can meet successfully on the synthesis. Therefore, searching for the high potential extracts that can reduce the metal salt precursor in the synthesis reaction is essential. The present study explores the synthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuONPs) using Caesalpinia sappan heartwood extract. Phytochemical analysis and determination of the total phenolic content of the extract were performed before use as a reducing agent. Under the suitable synthesized condition, a color change in the color of the solutions to brown confirmed the formation of CuONPs. The obtained CuONPs were confirmed using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, photon correlation spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive X-ray, and Fourier transform infrared analysis. The synthesized CuONPs investigated for antioxidant, antiglycation, and antibacterial activities. CuONPs possessed antioxidant activities by quenching free radicals with an IC50 value of 63.35 µg/mL and reducing activity with an EC range of 3.19-10.27 mM/mg. CuONPs also inhibited the formation of advanced glycation end products in the bovine serum albumin/ribose model with an IC50 value of 17.05 µg/mL. In addition, CuONPs showed inhibition of human pathogens, including Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Escherichia coli, and prevention of biofilm formation and biofilm eradication, with maximum inhibition of approx. 75%. Our findings suggest that C. sappan extract can be used to obtain highly bioactive CuONPs for the development of certain medical devices and therapeutic agents.

Abstract
In this study, new magnetic nanocomposites with different molar ratios of zinc oxide-zinc sulfide were synthesized together with photocatalysts MNPs@BNPs@ZnO and MNPs@ BNPs@ ZnS. The photocatalytic behavior of these hybrid nanocomposites under visible light and ultraviolet light was investigated to remove methylene blue (MB), methyl orange (MO) dyes, real textile and carton effluents. After studies, the best active photocatalyst in both visible light and ultraviolet light is MNPs@BNPs@ZnO-ZnS (ZnO/ZnS: 0.75:0.25), which displayed the best performance in the ultraviolet region. According to the TEM, the average particle size for MNPs@BNPs@ZnO-ZnS (ZnO/ZnS: 0.75:0.25) is between 10 and 30 nm. Zeta potential (DLS) showed that the charge on the photocatalyst surface is negative at most pHs. PL analysis confirmed that the amount of hole-electron recombination in the optimal photocatalyst is less than MNPs@BNPs@ZnO and MNPs@BNPs@ZnS. Also, based on kinetic studies, the rate constant for removing azo dyes such as MO and MB was 0.0186 and 0.0171 min-1, respectively. It is worth noting that in addition to the novelty of the synthesized photocatalysts, the UV and visible lamps used in this research are inexpensive, durable, and highly efficient.

Abstract
Cervical cancer is fast becoming a global health crisis, accounting for most female deaths in low- and middle-income countries. It is the fourth most frequent cancer affecting women, and due to its complexity, conventional treatment options are limited. Nanomedicine has found a niche in gene therapy, with inorganic nanoparticles becoming attractive tools for gene delivery strategies. Of the many metallic nanoparticles (NPs) available, copper oxide NPs (CuONPs) have been the least investigated in gene delivery. In this study, CuONPs were biologically synthesized using Melia azedarach leaf extract, functionalized with chitosan and polyethylene glycol (PEG), and conjugated to the targeting ligand folate. A peak at 568 nm from UV-visible spectroscopy and the characteristic bands for the functional groups using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy confirmed the successful synthesis and modification of the CuONPs. Spherical NPs within the nanometer range were evident from transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA). The NPs portrayed exceptional binding and protection of the reporter gene, pCMV-Luc-DNA. In vitro cytotoxicity studies revealed cell viability >70% in human embryonic kidney (HEK293), breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), and cervical cancer (HeLa) cells, with significant transgene expression, obtained using the luciferase reporter gene assay. Overall, these NPs showed favorable properties and efficient gene delivery, suggesting their potential role in gene therapy.

Abstract
The present work aimed to biofabricate copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) using Tinospora cordifolia leaf extract. The biofabricated CuO NPs were treated against the malarial parasite of chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum (INDO) and the antilarval efficacy was evaluated against the malaria vector Anopheles stephensi and dengue vector Aedes aegypti. The prominence at 285 nm in the UV-visible spectrum helped to identify the produced CuO NPs. Based on the XRD patterns, the concentric rings correspond to reflections at 38.26° (111), 44.11° (200), 64.58° (220), and 77.34° (311). These separations are indicative of CuO's face-centered cubic (fcc) structure. The synthesized CuO NPs have FTIR spectra with band intensities of 3427, 2925, 1629, 1387, 1096, and 600 cm-1. The absorbance band at 3427 cm-1 is known to be associated with the stretching O-H due to the alcoholic group. FTIR proved that the presence of the -OH group is responsible for reducing and capping agents in the synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs). The synthesized CuO NPs were found to be polymorphic (oval, elongated, and roughly spherical) in form with a size range of 11-47 nm and an average size of 16 nm when the morphology was examined using FESEM and HRTEM. The highest antiplasmodial efficacy against the chloroquine-resistant strain of P. falciparum (INDO) was found in the synthesized CuO NPs, with LC50 values of 19.82 µg/mL, whilst HEK293 cells are the least toxic, with a CC50 value of 265.85 µg/mL, leading to a selectivity index of 13.41. However, the antiplasmodial activity of T. cordifolia leaf extract (TCLE) and copper sulfate (CS) solution showed moderate activity, with LC50 values of 52.24 and 63.88 µg/mL, respectively. The green synthesized NPs demonstrated extremely high antilarval efficacy against the larvae of An. stephensi and Ae. aegypti, with LC50 values of 4.06 and 3.69 mg/L, respectively.

Abstract
Plants have been used for multiple purposes over thousands of years in various applications such as traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurveda. More recently, the special properties of phytochemicals within plant extracts have spurred researchers to pursue interdisciplinary studies uniting nanotechnology and biotechnology. Plant-mediated green synthesis of nanomaterials utilises the phytochemicals in plant extracts to produce nanomaterials. Previous publications have demonstrated that diverse types of nanomaterials can be produced from extracts of numerous plant components. This review aims to cover in detail the use of plant extracts to produce copper (Cu)-based nanomaterials, along with their robust applications. The working principles of plant-mediated Cu-based nanomaterials in biomedical and environmental applications are also addressed. In addition, it discusses potential biotechnological solutions and new applications and research directions concerning plant-mediated Cu-based nanomaterials that are yet to be discovered so as to realise the full potential of the plant-mediated green synthesis of nanomaterials in industrial-scale production and wider applications. This review provides readers with comprehensive information, guidance, and future research directions concerning: (1) plant extraction, (2) plant-mediated synthesis of Cu-based nanomaterials, (3) the applications of plant-mediated Cu-based nanomaterials in biomedical and environmental remediation, and (4) future research directions in this area.

Abstract
Copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) synthesis using an environmentally benign approach, as well as their antibacterial properties. Copper sulphate pentahydrate (CuSO4.5H2O) of different concentrations (2 mM, 5 mM and 10 mM) and aqueous Nyctanthes arbor-tristis leaf extract were used to make the CuO NPs. The synthesised CuO NPs are characterised by UV-vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). UV-vis spectroscopy confirmed the presence of CuO NPs. The functional groups of the active components were identified using the FTIR spectra of the control (leaf extract) and CuO NPs. SEM pictures revealed that the particles were rectangular, truncated triangle and spherical in shape, with sizes ranging between 4.9 nm, 18.4 nm and 23.8 nm determined using X-ray diffraction. The antibacterial activity of the produced CuO NPs was further evaluated using the well diffusion method. By observing inhibition zones around each well, the nanoparticles were revealed to have broad antibacterial action against human pathogenic bacterial strains Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus withs the 7 ± 0.70-mm and 7 ± 0.21-mm inhibitory zone size respectively followed by 08 μg/mL and 2.5 μg/mL MIC respectively. Thus, these outputs concluded that the CuO NPs exhibited miraculous effect and it might be boon towards nanomedical science, pharmaceuticals and health industries. KEY POINTS: • Biosynthesis of CuO nanoparticle • Multifaceted utilization • Broad spectrum antimicrobial activity.

Abstract
The need for a mild, low-cost, green environment that is able to produce exotic properties of output nanostructures is appealing nowadays. Employing these requirements, the copper (Cu)-based oxide nanostructures have been successfully synthesised via one-pot reaction using biocompatible natural polyphenol, tannic acid (TA) as both the reducing agent and stabiliser at 60, 70 and 80 °C. The structural and optical studies disclosed the effect of TA on the surface morphology, phase purity, elemental composition, optical microstrain and optical intrinsic energy of this mixed Cu2O and CuO nanostructures. The optically based method describes the comparative details of the multi-band gap in the presence of more than one element with overlapping spectra from the first-derivative absorbance curve [Formula: see text] and the exponential absorbance of Urbach tail energy [Formula: see text] towards the conventional Tauc bandgap. The [Formula: see text] demonstrates that the pronounced effect of TA that Cu2O and CuO nanostructures creates much sensitive first-derivative bandgap output compared to the Tauc bandgap. The results also show that the [Formula: see text] reduced as the temperature reaches 70 °C and then experienced sudden increase at 80 °C. The change in the pattern is parallel to the trend observed in the Williamson-Hall microstrain and is evident from the variations of the mean crystallite size [Formula: see text] which is also a cause response to the change in temperature or pH. Therefore, the current work has elucidated that the structural and optical correlations on the as-synthesised Cu2O and CuO nanostructures in the presence of TA were the combined reaction of pH change and the ligand complexation reactions. The acquired results suggest a more comprehensive range of studies to further understand the extent relationship between the physical and optical properties of TA functionalised Cu-based oxide nanostructures.

Abstract
There is an increasing need to reduce the silver content in silver-based inks or pastes and achieve low-temperature sintering for scalable and low-cost production of printed wearable electronics. This need depends on the ability to control the metal composition and the surface properties of the nanoinks. Alloying silver with copper provides a pathway for meeting the need in terms of cost reduction, but little is known about the composition controllability and the low-temperature sintering capability. We report herein a scalable wet chemical synthesis of bimetallic silver-copper alloy nanoinks with room temperature sintering properties. The bimetallic alloy nanoparticles with a controllable composition can be formulated as stable nanoinks. The nanoinks printed on paper substrates are shown to sinter under room temperature. In addition to composition dependence, the results reveal an intriguing dependence of sintering on humidity above the printed nanoink films. These findings are assessed based on theoretical simulation of the sintering processes via surface-mediated sintering and interparticle necking mechanisms in terms of nanoscale adsorption, adhesion and diffusion, and surface free energies. Implications of the findings for room temperature fabrication of wearable sensors are also discussed.

Abstract
In recent years, polysaccharides-based nanocomposites have been used for biomedical applications. In the current study, a nanocomposite based on myco-synthesized copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) and starch was prepared. The prepared nanocomposite was fully characterized using UV-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), mapping, transmission electron microscope (TEM), and dynamic light scattering (DLS). Results revealed that this nanocomposite is characterized by nano spherical shape ranged around 200 nm as well as doped with CuNPs with size about 9 nm. Antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer activities of the prepared nanocomposite were evaluated. Results revealed that CuNPs-based nanocomposite exhibited outstanding antibacterial and antifungal activity toward Escherichia coli ATCC25922, Bacillus subtilis ATCC605, Candida albicans ATCC90028, Cryptococcus neoformance ATCC 14,116, Aspergillus niger RCMB 02,724, A. terreus RCMB 02,574, and A. fumigatus RCMB 02,568. Moreover, CuNPs-based nanocomposite has a strong antioxidant activity as compared to ascorbic acid, where IC50 was 18 µg/mL. Cytotoxicity test of CuNPs-based nanocomposite revealed that this nanocomposite is safe in use, where IC50 was 185.1 µg/mL. Furthermore, CuNPs-based nanocomposite exhibited potential anticancer activity against MCF7 cancerous cell line where IC50 was 62.8 µg/mL which was better than CuNPs alone. In conclusion, the prepared CuNPs with starch-based nanocomposite is promising for different biomedical applications as antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer activities.

Abstract
Inorganic nanoparticles, such as CeO3, TiO2 and Fe3O4 could be served as a platform for their excellent performance in antioxidant effect. They may offer the feasibility to be further developed for their smaller and controllable sizes, flexibility to be modified, relative low toxicity as well as ease of preparation. In this work, the recent progress of these nanoparticles were illustrated, and the antioxidant mechanism of the inorganic nanoparticles were introduced, which mainly included antioxidant enzyme-mimetic activity and antioxidant ROS/RNS scavenging activity. The antioxidant effects and the applications of several nanoparticles, such as CeO3, Fe3O4, TiO2 and Se, are summarized in this paper. The potential toxicity of these nanoparticles both in vitro and in vivo was well studied for the further applications. Future directions of how to utilize these inorganic nanoparticles to be further applied in some fields, such as medicine, cosmetic and functional food additives were also investigated in this paper.

Abstract
The greatest challenge of the current generation and generations to come is antimicrobial resistance, as different pathogenic bacteria have continuously evolved to become resistant to even the most recently synthesized antibiotics such as carbapenems. Resistance to carbapenems limits the therapeutic options of MDR infections as they are the only safe and effective drugs recommended to treat such infections. This scenario has complicated treatment outcomes, even to the commonest bacterial infections. Repeated attempts to develop other approaches have been made. The most promising novel therapeutic option is the use of nanomaterials as antimicrobial agents. Thus, this study examined the efficacy of Camellia sinensis extract (CSE) and Prunus africana bark extract (PAE) green synthesized Copper oxide nanoparticles (CuONPs) against carbapenem-resistant bacteria. Furthermore, the photocatalytic and antioxidant activities of CuONPs were evaluated to determine the potential of using them in a wide range of applications. CuONPs were biosynthesized by CSE and PAE. UV vis spectroscopy, X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Dynamic light scattering (DLS), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize the nanoparticles. CuONPs susceptibility tests were carried out by the agar well diffusion method. The photocatalytic and antioxidant activities of the CuONPs were determined by the methylene blue and DPPH free radical scavenging assays, respectively. UV vis absorbance spectra registered surface plasmon resonance peaks between 272 and 286 nm, confirming the presence of CuONPs. The XRD array had nine strong peaks at 2θ values typical of CuONPs. FTIR spectra exhibited bands associated with organic functional groups confirming capping and functionalization of the CuONPs by the phytochemicals. DLS analysis registered a net zeta potential of +12.5 mV. SEM analysis revealed that the nanoparticles were spherical and clustered with a mean diameter of 6 nm. Phytosynthesized CuONPs exhibited the highest growth suppression zones of 30 mm with MIC ranging from 30 to 125 μg/ml against MDR bacteria. Furthermore, the CuONPs achieved a methylene blue dye photocatalysis degradation efficiency of 85.5% and a free radical scavenging activity of 28.8%. PAE and CSE successfully bio-reduced copper ions to the nanoscale level with potent antimicrobial, photocatalysis, and antioxidant activities.

Abstract
Copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) are one of the most widely used nanomaterials nowadays. CuO NPs have numerous applications in biological processes, medicine, energy devices, environmental remediation, and industrial fields from nanotechnology. With the increasing concern about the energy crisis and the challenges of chemical and physical approaches for preparing metal NPs, attempts to develop modern alternative chemistry have gotten much attention. Biological approaches that do not produce toxic waste and therefore do not require purification processes have been the subject of numerous studies. Plants may be extremely useful in the study of biogenic metal NP synthesis. This review aims to shed more light on the interactions between plant extracts and CuO NP synthesis. The use of living plants for CuO NPs biosynthesis is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly process. To date, the findings have revealed many aspects of plant physiology and their relationships to the synthesis of NPs. The current state of the art and potential challenges in the green synthesis of CuO NPs are described in this paper. This study found a recent increase in the green synthesis of CuO NPs using various plant extracts. As a result, a thorough explanation of green synthesis and stabilizing agents for CuO NPs made from these green sources is given. Additionally, the multifunctional applications of CuO NPs synthesized with various plant extracts in environmental remediation, sensing, catalytic reduction, photocatalysis, diverse biological activities, energy storage, and several organic transformations such as reduction, coupling, and multicomponent reactions were carefully reviewed. We expect that this review could serve as a useful guide for readers with a general interest in the plant extract mediated biosynthesis of CuO NPs and their potential applications.

Abstract
In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were obtained using a green-chemistry procedure. For this protocol, the Carrasquilla extract (CE) (Berberis hallii) and a AgNO3 solution were used as the reducing agent and the metal precursor, respectively. The as-prepared AgNPs after characterization were then used to evaluate the degradation of the methylene blue (MB), the safranin (SF), and the mixture of both dyes in the aqueous phase under solar light irradiation. The photocatalytic activity of AgNPs for the degradation of the MB (k = 0.0092 min−1) was higher than the SF (k = 0.00016 min−1) due to the susceptibility of the thiazine ring of the MB to photodegradation contrasted to the phenyl phenazine of the SF. However, SF was mostly removed by adsorption with a maximum uptake of 2907 mg/g. Overall, this eco-friendly and green conversion of silver ions to metallic elements avoids the use of toxic chemicals and could be applied for the degradation/adsorption of dyes used in several industrial processes.

Abstract
The development of resistance against antibiotics used to treat bacterial infections along with the prevalence of medication residues presents significant public health problems globally. Antibiotic-resistant germs result in infections that are difficult or impossible to treat. Decreasing antibiotic effectiveness calls for rapid development of alternative antimicrobials. In this respect, nanoparticles (NPs) of copper oxide (CuO) manifest a latent and flexible inorganic nanostructure with noteworthy antimicrobial impact. Green synthesis of CuO NPs was performed in the current study, which was then doped with varying amounts of ginger (Zingiber officinale, ZO) and garlic (Allium sativum, AS) extracts. In low and high doses, the synthesized compound was used to measure the antimicrobial effectiveness against pathogenic Escherichia coli. The present research successfully demonstrated a renewable, eco-friendly synthesis technique with natural materials that is equally applicable to other green metal oxide NPs.

Abstract
Quercetin was investigated for its role as a reducing agent in biosynthesizing CuO/ZnO nanocomposite, its subsequent surface functionalization and influence in Rhodamine B dye degradation and biocidal activity. The as synthesized quercetin functionalized CuO/ZnO nanocomposite (CuO/ZnO@Q) was analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infra red spectroscopy (FTIR), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). XRD showed the formation of crystalline CuO, ZnO phases and FTIR analysis revealed the incorporation of quercetin functional groups in the synthesized nanocomposite. TEM image displayed the formation of quercetin deposited spherical CuO/ZnO nanostructure with the EDAX results confirming the presence of organic carbon composition from quercetin. The UV absorption spectra ascertained the presence and role of quercetin in the enhanced absorption of radiation in the UV range. CuO/ZnO@Q showed improved photocatalysis with complete Rhodamine B dye degradation after 75 min of UV irradiation, as against pure CuO/ZnO, which exhibited incomplete dye degradation even after 90 min of irradiation. Moreover, quercetin surface functionalization effectively ameliorated its antimicrobial activity against E. coli, S. aureus, Shigella, B. subtilis, A. niger and C. albicans, proving its potential in significantly enhancing biocidal activity along with photocatalytic dye degradation in a natural and eco-friendly route.

Abstract
The synthesis of chitosan- CuO nanoparticles was studied. This research’s aims were biosynthesis CuO nanoparticles, synthesis of chitosan-CuO nanoparticles, and used as an antibacterial agent of Shigella dysenteriae. CuO nanoparticles and chitosan-CuO nanoparticles were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction, respectively. CuO nanoparticle was synthesized by the reaction between leaf extract of sweet star fruit (Averrhoa carambola L.) and copper sulfate pentahydrate. Chitosan-CuO nanoparticles were synthesized by a heating method. The suspension of chitosan-CuO nanoparticles was used as an antibacterial agent with a paper disk method. The result showed that the Cu-O group at CuO nanoparticles was detected at a wavenumber of 503, 619, 767, and 821 cm-1. The crystallite size of the CuO nanoparticles was 4.25 nm. Cu-O group bonded at N-H and O-H groups and detected at 3406 cm-1 from the FTIR spectra of chitosan-CuO nanoparticles. The average inhibition zone of chitosan-CuO nanoparticles at concentration 2.500, 5.000, 7.500, and 10.000 ppm to Shigella dysenteriae were 13.57 ± 1.55; 14.90 ± 1.20; 15.97 ± 0.76 and 17.03 ± 1.80 mm, respectively.

Abstract
Among the conventional methods in synthesizing nanoparticles, the methods that use biological resources, as reducing and stabilizing agents, can be considered eco-friendly methods. In this study, the leaf tissue of green tea (Camellia sinensis L.) and lavender (Lavandula anguistifolia) were utilized by the solid-state method as a one-step and low-cost method for the biosynthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs). The results of the X-ray Diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron spectroscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that lavender is more productive in the synthesis of pure and uniform CuO NPs (50 nm). Comparing biogenic synthesized CuO NPs with chemically synthesized CuO NPs in terms of induction of phytotoxicity, exposed in treatments with concentrations of 40, 400 and 4000 μg ml−1, green CuO NPs had less inhibitory effects on the seed germination factors (i.e., germination percentage, germination rate, shoot and root length, etc.) of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.), and tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) seeds. However, both green/chemically synthesized CuO NPs at their lowest concentrations (4 μg ml−1), had an effective role in root and shoot expansion of lettuce and tomato seedlings. Among the conventional methods in synthesizing nanoparticles, the methods that use biological resources, as reducing and stabilizing agents, can be considered eco-friendly methods.![]()

Abstract
In the current era of globalization, synthetic dyes are one of the key factors of water pollution. Photocatalysis constitutes a promising technology for the treatment of wastewater, especially to those containing hard-to-remove organic compounds. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) play a vital role as a photocatalyst material. This research highlights the synthesized ZnONPs with roselle flower and oil palm leaf extract. The extracts and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) act as reducing agents during the synthesis process. Synthesis without the addition of plant extract is used as blank control for the experiment. Structural and optical studies of the three variants of ZnONPs were performed. High purity of ZnONPs with element Zn and O was obtained. The size of the three variants of ZnONPs was from 10–15 nm and found in agglomerated spherical shape. Large band gap, 3.2 eV was obtained by UV-Vis and high thermal stability was proven by TGA. Oxygen vacancies that assist in the degradation phenomenon were found in ZnONPs. Five percent of ZnONPs with the presence of 10 W UV light could effectively degrade 10 ppm MO in 5 h and MB in 3 h. Besides, high antioxidant properties and low toxicity demonstrated the ability of ZnONPs to be used as photocatalysts. In conclusion, ZnONPs can be further developed for pharmaceutical and industrial use.

Abstract
In this work, Andean sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis L.) leaves were used to prepare monodispersed cuprous oxide (Cu2O) nanoparticles under heating. Visual color changes and UV-visible spectroscopy of colloidal nanoparticles showed λmax at 255 nm, revealing the formation of copper oxide nanoparticles. Transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering analysis indicated that the prepared nanoparticles were spherical with an average size of 6-10 nm. The semi-crystalline nature and Cu2O phase of as-prepared nanoparticles were examined by X-ray diffraction. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed the presence of polyphenols, alkaloids and sugar in the sacha inchi leaf, allowing the formation of Cu2O nanoparticles from Cu2+. Additionally, as-synthesized Cu2O nanoparticles exhibited good photocatalytic degradation activity against methylene blue (>78%, 150 min) with rate constant 0.0219106 min-1. The results suggested that the adopted method is low-cost, simple, ecofriendly and highly selective for the synthesis of small Cu2O nanoparticles and may be used as a nanocatalyst in the future in the efficient treatment of organic pollutants in water.

Abstract
Fluorescent atacamite nanoclusters (FANCs) have been developed and modified with silica for Drosophila salivary gland tissue imaging and photothermally induced cell death of osteosarcoma MG-63 cells. FANCs were synthesized with Moringa oleifera leaf extract without using any hazardous reducing and external capping agents. FANC was further used to evaluate light absorption, fluorescence emission, band gap, and magnetic properties as the first report on such nanoclusters. Upon excitation with a 350 nm light source, FANCs exhibited fluorescence at 460 nm, with a relative quantum yield of 0.3%. Besides, silica-encapsulated fluorescent atacamite nanoclusters (SEFANC) manifested remarkable improvement in emission, quantum yield (1.7%), shelf-life (15 d), biocompatibility, and photostability. Concomitantly, it has also increased the absorption in the near-infrared region and demonstrated high heat generation potential (42 °C → 50 °C). The above results suggest that FANC can be a potential candidate in the area of nanomedicine for a number of applications such as bioimaging, photothermal therapy, etc.

Abstract
Copper oxide nanoflowers (CuO-NFs) have been synthesized through a novel green route using Tulsi leaves-extracted eugenol (4-allyl-2-methoxyphenol) as reducing agent. Characterizations results reveal the growth of crystalline single-phase CuO-NFs with monoclinic structure. The prepared CuO-NFs can effectively degrade methylene blue with 90% efficiency. They also show strong barrier against E. coli (27 ± 2 mm) at the concentration of 100 µg mL-1, while at the concentration of 25 µg mL-1 weak barrier has been found against all examined bacterial organisms. The results provide important evidence that CuO-NFs have sustainable performance in methylene blue degradation as well as bacterial organisms.

Abstract
Polymer functionalized metal oxide nanocomposites are great interest due to wide range of application, especially in nanomedicine. The present study reports an eco-friendly bio-inspired synthesis of chitosan/copper oxide (CS-CuO) nanocomposite for the first time using rutin. The bio-synthesized CS-CuO nanocomposite was characterized using UV-Visible spectroscopy, FE-SEM, EDS, TEM, XRD and FTIR analyses. FE-SEM and TEM images revealed the synthesized CS-CuO nanocomposite having spherical shaped structure with an average size of 10-30 nm. EDS analysis confirmed the elements present in synthesized CS-CuO nanocomposite. FTIR studies revealed the role of rutin and chitosan for reduction, capping and synthesis of CS-CuO nanocomposite from the precursor copper salt. The XRD analysis revealed monoclinic structure of CS-CuO nanocomposite. Anti-proliferative activity of the CS-CuO nanocomposite was evaluated in human lung cancer cell line A549. Synthesized CS-CuO nanocomposite showed concentration-depended anti-proliferative activity against A549 cancer cells and their IC50 value was found to be 20 ± 0.50 μg/mL. Furthermore, synthesized nanocomposite induce apoptosis in treated A549 cancer cells assayed by AO/EtBr fluorescent staining method. In conclusion, the synthesized CS-CuO nanocomposite using rutin can be used as a potential anticancer agent in biomedical and clinical sectors.

Abstract
Flavonoids, polyphenols with anti-oxidative activity have high potential as novel therapeutics for neurodegenerative disease, but their applicability is rendered by their poor water solubility and chemical instability under physiological conditions. In this study, this is overcome by delivering flavonoids to model cell membranes (unsaturated DOPC) using prepared and characterized biodegradable mesoporous silica nanoparticles, MSNs. Quercetin, myricetin and myricitrin have been investigated in order to determine the relationship between flavonoid structure and protective activity towards oxidative stress, i.e., lipid peroxidation induced by the addition of hydrogen peroxide and/or Cu2+ ions. Among investigated flavonoids, quercetin showed the most enhanced and prolonged protective anti-oxidative activity. The nanomechanical (Young modulus) measurement of the MSNs treated DOPC membranes during lipid peroxidation confirmed attenuated membrane damage. By applying a combination of experimental techniques (atomic force microscopy—AFM, force spectroscopy, electrophoretic light scattering—ES and dynamic light scattering—DLS), this work generated detailed knowledge about the effects of flavonoid loaded MSNs on the elasticity of model membranes, especially under oxidative stress conditions. Results from this study will pave the way towards the development of innovative and improved markers for oxidative stress-associated neurological disorders. In addition, the obtained could be extended to designing effective delivery systems of other high potential bioactive molecules with an aim to improve human health in general.

Abstract
Osteoblasts are an important key factor for the pathogenesis of several bone-related diseases, notably in osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a disorder categorized based on the bone mineral density (BMD) and an alteration in the bone micro-architecture had been considered as the major determinant for increasing the fracture risk. The available medicine for curing the osteoporosis shows a minimal or no activity against the genesis or function of osteoblasts. The present study was conducted to determine the influence of phyto Angelica species (Ang.) mediated synthesized copper quantum dots decorated chitosan on human osteoblast cells for application of osteoporosis. The phyto compound of Angelica sp. was extracted by ethanol as solvent and it has been characterized through spectral analyses. An Angelica sp. mediated synthesized copper oxide quantum dots (CuO QDs) and the presence of CuO QDs on chitosan have been analyzed and exhibited by important spectral investigations. The morphological observation of CuO QDs on the chitosan (CS) was visualized by the microscopic analyses. The MTT assay results showed that cell growth of CuO QDs/CS-Ang. by the concentration dependent. The highest cell growth (87%) was noted at 5 μg/mL followed by 80 and 77% at 15 and 25 μg/mL respectively. The functional groups and potential compounds of Angelica sp. with CuO QDs/CS has been improved the osteoblast cell activity as prophylactic potentials against osteoporosis.
