Phyto-assisted Synthesis and Assessment of Anti-Inflammatory and Antioxidant Properties of Copper and Graphene Oxide Nano Composite Reinforced with Amla Extract-An In-Vitro Study
Author(s): Gaurav N Ketkar, Sankari Malaiappan* and Rajeshkumar S
Background: conventional methods used for synthesis of nanoparticles use toxic chemicals, thus leading to toxicity in the environment. Hence, we need to shift to “green synthesis”. Previously done have shown excellent antimicrobial properties of the copper and graphene oxide nanocomposite reinforced with amla extract. Hence, this study was conducted to assess the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of copper and graphene oxide nanocomposite reinforced with amla extract. Copper causes cell wall lysis by leakage of intracellular substances hence is an excellent antimicrobial agent, graphene oxide for its barrier and structural strength hence these were chosen to create a nanocomposite. Aim: Aim of the study was phyto-assisted preparation of nano copper with nano graphene oxide nanocomposite and evaluation of its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Material.. Read More»
