Abstract :
Nanotechnology is the creation, manipulation and use of materials at the nanometer size scale (1 to 100 nm). At this size there are significant differences in many material properties that are normally not seen in the same materials at larger scales. Although nanomaterials can be produces using a veriety of traditional physical and chemical processes but it is now also possible by biological processes. The present study aims to employ the use of plant as a stabilizing/ reducing agent for the synthesis of CdS nanoparticles with less hazards towards environment, easily scaledup, stable, economically viable and suitable for large scale production. CdS nanoparticles were synthesised by using Murraya Koenigii aqueous leaf extract as non toxic and green capping agent. The novelty of this work is the Murraya Koenigii leaves present throughout the year and not an seasonal leaves and it has many medicinal properties. In the process of synthesizing CdS nanoparticles using Murraya Koenigii leaves extract, observed rapid stabilization of CdS nanoparticles in the solution. Characterization of the particles has been carried out by using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Spectroscopy (TEM), Fourier Transform Infra Red (FTIR) and UV-Visible Spectroscopy. The CdS nanopaticles prepared by using Murraya Koenigii leaves extract have potent antibacterial activity and cost wise very cheap and ecofriendly to the environment.
