Abstract
The bio molecules from plant leaf extract utilized in the preparation of selenium material at the nano scale. The selenium ion was reduced to selenium nanoparticles in the presence of molecule residue of the plant leaf extract. The bio molecule stabilized selenium nanoparticles were grown gradually in the reaction mixture. The selenium nanoparticles were characterized using atomic absorption spectroscopy, fourier transform inferred spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electronic microscope and transmission electronic microscope. The selenium nanoparticles were synthesized successfully as the nano-crystalline pure hexagonal phase and the size range of 26-41â¯nm with spherical in shape. The activity and mechanism of nanoparticles suggested that the selenium nanoparticles are causes of leakage of reducing sugars and protein of pathogens membrane cell. The selenium nano are responsible for death and fully inhibited the microbial growth of pathogen. The bio molecule stabilized selenium nanoparticles were also investigated for the antioxidant agent. Selenium nanoparticles showed scavenging activity up to 94.48%. These results recommended that the advantages of using this method for synthesis of selenium nanoparticles with excellent antioxidant and antimicrobial mechanism and activity, which can be used as the antioxidant and antibiotic agent.
