Green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles from Citrus medica that have vitamin C is tested on the antioxidant property which prevents free radicals responsible for skin damage. Keeping the skin pH between 4 and 6.5 during cleansing reduces the overgrowth of microbes, resulting in promising antimicrobial, antioxidant, and cleanser properties. Instead of using various chemical additives in cosmetics, some of the natural products can be replaced. Zinc oxide is used as sunscreen in cosmetic products to prevent the skin from UV radiation. Therefore, the biologically synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles were purified by centrifugal force and further confirmed by characterization methods including UV-Vis spectroscopy, showing that the peak absorbance at 378 nm was characteristic of the corresponding zinc oxide nanoparticles. FTIR provides spectra for various functional groups present in the nanoparticles and the followed by SEM which reveals the distribution pattern of the green synthesised zinc oxide nanoparticles. The applicative part was concentrated on antimicrobial and topical skin cleanser agents. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
