Terminalia catappa Leaf Extract as a Capping Agent for ZnO Nanoparticle Synthesis via Sol-gel Method and its Microbial Effects on Selected Fungi and Bacterial

This study presents a reliable process for synthesizing ZnO nanoparticles using a green method. In this approach, we harness Terminalia catappa leaf extract as an effective chelating and capping agent to synthesize ZnO nanoparticles from zinc nitrate hexahydrate salt through a sol-gel method, emplo...
