ABSTRACT
Nanotechnology had long been in existence but was yet to be fully understood. In recent years it gained attention in the light of biomedical research especially owing to the better understanding of the nanoscale particles. In which case biological nanoscale particles have gained more attention compared to chemical and physical methods. For this study, biogenic ZnO NPs were synthesized using zinc nitrate tetrahydrate and ethanolic extract of Z. officinale roots. Zn metals are known for their excellent biological potential and minimal level of toxicity. On the other hand, Z. officinale has long been accounted for its good medicinal value which was confirmed by the GCMS analysis revealing the presence of essential constituents. The biogenic ZnO NPs and zinc nitrate tetrahydrate were analysed using UV-Vis spectroscopy, zeta sizer analyser, FTIR, XRD and SEM. Furthermore, the antimicrobial potential was examined against; B. cereus ATCC 7064, Meticillin Resistant S. aureus ATCC 6538P, E. faecalis ATCC 29212, L. monocytogenes, Uropathogenic Escherishia coli UTI-89, P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853, L. pneumophila ATCC 33152, Carbapenem Resistant Klebsiella Pneumoniae (CRKP-239), Carbapenem Resistant Klebsiella Pneumoniae (CRKP 682) and Carbapenem Resistant Klebsiella Pneumoniae (CRKP-692). Both the antioxidant and cytotoxicity potential were investigated. XRD expressed proper crystalline morphology. The zeta sizer recorded a nanosize of 67±89 which tells its nanoscale property. ZnO NPs exhibited a well-defined zone of inhibition and low MIC values between 50-3.25 µg/mL. Biogenic ZnO NPs (42.42±43.95 at 12.5±100 µg/mL respectively) and Z. officinale extract (32.75±40.22 at 12.5±100 µg/mL respectively) revealed antioxidant potential and moderate cytotoxicity activity against MDA-MB
231 cells. Thus, ZnO NPs and Z. officinale extract demonstrated a wide range of significant importance in biomedical research.
Keywords: Antimicrobial, Antioxidant, Cytotoxicity, ZnO NPs, Z. officinale.
