摘要

This research investigates the synthesis of bimetallic cobalt-nickel nanoparticles (Co-Ni NPs) using Borassus flabellifer (Toddy palm) extract and evaluates their antibacterial, antioxidant and anticancer properties. The Co-Ni NPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Visible spectroscopy and electron microscopy. XRD analysis has revealed face-centred cubic Co-Ni NPs, having 16.82 nm crystalline size. UV-Visible spectroscopy revealed a surface plasmon resonance peak at 367.96 nm, indicating successful NPs formation. Electron microscopy (SEM and TEM) identified spherical NP with an average diameter of 12 nm. Co-Ni NPs demonstrated significant antibacterial activity, with inhibition zones of 17 mm, 15 mm and 20 mm against E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, respectively. In antioxidant assays, the Co-Ni NPs exhibited 82% Hydrogen peroxide radical scavenging activity, surpassing the standard antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), which showed 74% activity. Furthermore, the Co-Ni NPs displayed considerable anticancer activity, reducing cell viability by 65% in MDA-MB231 cells and 58% in SKOV-3 cells. These findings highlight the multifunctional potential of Co-Ni NPs synthesized through a green approach, suggesting their applications in antimicrobial, antioxidant and anticancer therapies. Further research is needed to optimize their efficacy and explore therapeutic applications.
