| Popis: | Recent advancements in nanotechnology, for the biosynthesis of metal nanoparticles through enormous techniques, showed multidimensional developments. One among many facets of nanotechnology is to procure and adopt new advancements for green technology over chemical reduction synthesis. This adaptation for acquiring green nanotechnology leads us to a new dimension of nanobiotechnology. In order to imply one such efforts, in this study the emphasis is being laid on the synthesis of MgO nanoparticles using green technology and eliminating chemical reduction methods. Different characterization techniques such as UV–Vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and dynamic light scattering were used to carry out the experiments. The average size of MgO nanoparticles were obtained in the range of 85–95 nm, when synthesized by various sources. The extracts of plants were capable of producing MgO nanoparticles efficiently and exhibited good results during cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy study. The electrode modified with MgO nanoparticles (plant extract) showed good stability (90 days) and high conductivity. This study reports cost-effective and environment-friendly method for synthesis of MgO nanoparticles using plant extracts. The process is rapid, simple, and convenient and can be used as an alternative to chemical method. |
