| description | This research highlights the significant role of green synthesis in the production of copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles by using natural extracts as reducing agents. These nanoparticles have shown promising potential in two key applications: photocatalytic degradation of industrial dye effluents and electrochemical sensing of ciprofloxacin. The study found that Arundinaria gigantea leaf extract is an effective reducing agent for synthesizing well-defined crystalline structure CuO nanoparticles, with an average size of 36 nm. The CuO nanoparticles have demonstrated high efficiency in photocatalytic applications, effectively degrading AR88 dye under UV irradiation, making them a viable solution for eco-friendly water purification. Additionally, when incorporated into an electrochemical sensor, these CuO nanoparticles have improved sensitivity and selectivity in detecting ciprofloxacin in aqueous solutions with high accuracy and precision. This study emphasizes the versatility and effectiveness of green-synthesized CuO nanoparticles for various practical uses. |
