Green fabrication, characterization, and application of nano-sized particles of lead oxide from the different plants
The creation of environmentally friendly synthesis methods is necessary for the synthesis of nanoparticles for a wide range of applications. In this study, we describe a straightforward and sustainable process for creating lead oxide nanoparticles from Actinidia deliciosa and Ananas comosus plant waste. The fruit peel of the aforementioned plants was used to make a methanolic extract, which in this work facilitated the synthesis of lead oxide nanoparticles. The crystalline structure of the lead oxide nanoparticles made from the obtained extract was verified by an X-ray diffraction examination. The strongest absorption bands were found when colloidal lead oxide nanoparticles were studied using UV–Vis spectroscopy. A green synthesis of nanoparticles showed the presence of functional peaks when lead nanoparticles were analyzed using the Fourier transform infrared method. The scanning electron microscope pictures made it clear that the majority of the lead oxide nanoparticles were irregularly shaped and spherical. The lead oxide nanostructures and the prepared extract were also tested for their antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhimurium, Clostridium perfringens, Campylobacter, and Listeria. A high degree of antibacterial activity was found in lead oxide nanoparticles, suggesting their suitability for antimicrobial applications. In addition, the IC50 value was computed. Based on these results, a study showed that the biosynthesized lead oxide nanoparticles from the extracted fruit peels of Actinidia deliciosa and Ananas comosus can be used as an economical and sustainable substitute for lead oxide nanoparticle production.
