Synthesis of MgO Nanoparticles Using Artemisia abrotanum Herba Extract and Their Antioxidant and Photocatalytic Properties

Abstract: The synthesis of metal oxide nanoparticles with the use of plant extract is a promising alternative to traditional chemical methods. The aim of this work was to fabricate MgO nanoparticles using the Artemisia abrotanum herb water extract. The biologically synthesized MgO nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with EDS profile and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). XRD studies c… Show more

“…This could be due to the influence of microbial compound present in magnesite-soilisolated Sterptomyces sp. and nature of the cell wall [14,[17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. From Figure 8, it can be observed that MgO NPs sintered at 500 C show higher activity than the as-prepared samples.…”

“…Many of the researchers have shown the toxicity of metal oxide NPs in humans [18,19]; therefore, we have used the biological method to synthesize the NPs, which provides stability to nanoparticles and is cost-effective, eco-friendly, as well as non-toxic [14,18,19]. Both unicellular and multicellular organisms such as bacteria, fungi, and yeast produce inorganic materials either intra-cellularly or extra-cellularly [14,[20][21][22][23][24][25]. Biological synthesis is not only a good way to fabricate benign nanostructure materials, but also to reduce the use or generation of hazardous substances to human health and the environment.…”

“…UV/VIS spectroscopy was used as a preliminary analysis to confirm the biosynthesis of metal oxide, to determine the surface plasmon resonance band (SPR), and to identify the band gap energy of metal oxide nanoparticles . As depicted in Figure , a clear SPR is observed with a maximum absorbance at 300 nm, in agreement with the results reported by Dobrucka . The band gap energy was calculated by using the following equation …”

“…Similarly, Jhansi et al [25] used white button mushroom aqueous extract for the synthesis of spherical MgO nanoparticles (\ 15 nm) which significantly increase the germination of Arachis hypogaea L. (peanut). Spherical-shaped MgO nanoparticles are also synthesized by using aqueous leaf extracts of Pisidium guvajava, Aloe vera [26], Artemisia abrotanum herb [27] and Arabic gum from Acacia trees [28]. Jeevanandam et al [29] synthesized different sizes of MgO nanoparticles using several leaf extracts as well as magnesium precursors and investigated the effect of each synthesis parameters in yielding smaller-sized nanoparticles.…”
