Abstract

Biofabrication of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO-NPs) of a desired size remains a significant challenge. In this report, CuO-NPs were fabricated by treating 10 mM copper nitrate with Andean blackberry fruit (ABF) and leaf (ABL); and evaluated its antioxidant activity. As-prepared NPs characterization were determined by UV–visible spectrophotometry, Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with selected area electron diffraction (SAED) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. UV–visible spectroscopy showed an electronic excitonic transition at 250–255 nm clearly reveals the formation of ABF and ABL CuO-NPs. DLS analysis demonstrated mean diameter of ABF CuO-NPs (43.3 nm) smaller than ABL CuO-NPs (52.5 nm). TEM with SAED confirmed the CuO-NPs are spherical and of partial crystalline nature. Furthermore, the antioxidant efficacy of ABF CuO-NPs showed 89.02%, 1 mM whereas ABL CuO-NPs 75.92%, 1 mM against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl. From the results obtained it is suggested that green CuO-NPs could be used effectively in future biomedical concerns.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
