Abstract
Green synthesis of nanoparticles has many potentials application in environmental and bio medicals. Among diverse non-metal nanoparticles, sulphur nanoparticles are one of the most significant nanomaterials. A novel green approach was utilized to fabricate sulphur nanoparticles with in aid of syzygium cumini leave extract. Plants itself contain reducing and capping agents. The effective formation of sulphur nanoparticles characterized by using UV-visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electronic microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The major objective of this work to synthesis sulphur nanoparticles by green approach using syzygium cumini leaves aqueous extract and citric acid. The leaves of syzygium cumini aqueous extract act as a capping and stabilizing agent in the formation of sulphur nanoparticles. The synthesized sulphur nanoparticles were studied their application as antimicrobial activity.
