摘要

Co3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) have demonstrated broad applicability across various biomedical and industrial domains. Among synthesis approaches, green synthesis methods are increasingly favored over conventional techniques because of their cost-effectiveness, eco-friendliness, and reduced toxicity. In the present study, cobalt chloride was used as the precursor, and the fungus Rhizoctonia solani facilitated the biosynthesis of Co₃O₄ NPs. The NPs were thoroughly characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis reveal presence of Co-O, C = O, C-O, and C-C functional group in synthesize Co₃O₄ NPs, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) shown an average particle size of approximately 5.57 nm while X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies showed the average size of the crystal of about 5.41 nm (JCPDS-42-1467), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) shown irregular polyhedral shape with a relatively narrow size distribution and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) which revealed the atomic percentages of Co is 69.05% and for O is 21.82%. The antibacterial potential of the fabricated Co₃O₄ NPs was assessed compared to both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial species namely Streptococcus agalactiae, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, at 100 µg/mL of concentration. Where, highest zone of inhibition was observed against gram-positive bacteria (Streptococcus agalactiae = 18 ± 0.47 mm) as compared to gram negative bacteria. The MTT assay was carried out for Co3O4 NPs against Human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells which shown potential effect on these cells. Furthermore, their, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, anti-diabetic and antioxidant potentials were systematically investigated to explore their potential biomedical applications.
