Abstract

The present study was aimed at the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles using Hibiscus rosa-sinensis leaf extract. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by using various techniques such as XRD, SEM, EDAX, FTIR and Antibacterial Activities. The synthesized nanoparticles were formed by using zinc nitrate doped with Hibiscus rosa-sinensis leaf extract.
