BACTERIAL MEDIATED COPPER NANOPARTICLE SYNTHESIS USING BACTERIA-ESCHERICHIA COLI AND ITS CHARACTERIZATION

Abstract

The bacterial-mediated synthesis of copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) has gained significant attention as a sustainable and eco-friendly approach for the production of nanomaterials. This method utilizes microorganisms, such as E. coli, to reduce copper ions into nanoparticles, eliminating the need for hazardous chemicals and energy-intensive processes. In this abstract, we summarize the key aspects and findings of bacterial-mediated synthesis of CuNPs. We discuss the advantages of this approach, including its green nature, cost-effectiveness, and scalability. In this article, we basically describe the methodology of synthesis of bacteria mediated copper nanoparticles using the bacteria E.coli. ALso, why we are using this particular bacteria only? Then, the characterization of the Cu NP's is done by 5 different methods-UV-Spectroscopy we will check the antibacterial property against S. aureus and bacteria obtained the zone of ingibition anti-biofilm property of nanoparticle is also studies, antibiotic property analyses is also done. Furthermore, the bacterial synthesis method offers control over the size, shape, and surface properties of the CuNPs. By manipulating the growth conditions and parameters, researches can tune the characteristics of the nanoparticles to suit specific applications. CuNPs exhibit remarkable antimicrobial properties, making them effective against bacterial and fungal infections. They can disrupt the integrity of microbial cell membranes, inhibiting their growth and proliferation. Additionally, CuNPs demonstrate excellent catalytic activity, enabling them to facilitate various chemical reactions. IN conclusion, bacterial-mediated synthesis of CuNPs offers a sustainable and efficient alternative for their production. the ability to control their properties, combined with their diverse range of applications, makes them highly valuable in different fields. Continued research and development in this area are crucial to unlocking the full potential of bacterial-mediated synthesis of CuNPs and advancing sustainable nanotechnology.
