Abstract

This study presents a synthesis of copper nanoparticles in which an intermediate aqueous extract of the leaves of Andrographis paniculata. The synthesis copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) was supervised by UV-visible spectroscopy at room temperature. FTIR analysis prepared nanoparticles exhibited the attendance of comparable peaks established in the leaves extract spectra. XRD analysis inveterate the crystalline structure of synthetic copper nanoparticles. SEM's images presented that greatest balls were a spherical, like a shaped one. Subsequently, CuNPs was further analyzed for anti-bacterial effects from the Gram positive and Gram negative was obviously detected.
