Biosynthesis of ZnO nanoparticles using Melia azedarach seed extract: Evaluation of the cytotoxic and antimicrobial potency

ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) synthesized by using an aqueous extract of Melia azedarach seed are reported in this paper. The structural, morphological, compositional, and optical properties of the NPs were evaluated. A hexagonal phase with spherical morphology and an average crystallite size of 57.74 nm...
