Biosynthesis of Cu and CuO nanoparticles using aqueous leaves extract of Sambucus nigra L.

In this research we are synthesized CuO nanoparticles (NPs) using water extract of. Also the total phenolic content of Sambucusnigra L. leaves water extract was measured by the Folin-Ciocalteu method. For confirmation the structure of synthesized bio-CuO-NPs we are employed X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Ultraviolet-visible (UV–vis), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopies, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) methods that indicated that synthesized bio-CuO NPs have crystalline face-centered cubic (fcc) CuO phase with spherical morphology and with size about ۱۴ nm. It should be mentioned that two different temperatures (۱۰۰ and ۴۰۰ o C) caused to Cu and CuO NPs respectively.
