Abstract :

 The conventional methods of synthesizing nanoparticles using chemical method were found to be more expensive and involve the use of toxic, hazardous chemicals that are responsible for various biological risks. Hence, ecofriendly green or biogenic synthesis of nanoparticles becomes more attractive. Proposed study focuses on the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles using the aqueous root extract of Zingiber officinale (ginger). Flavonoids are responsible for biogenic synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles. Presence of flavonoids in Zingiber officinale was confirmed by flavonoid test. The X–ray Powder Diffraction analysis shows the triclinic system of the Zincite nanoparticles. The structure, shape and size of the synthesized ZnO nanoparticles were analyzed by SEM which shows the average size of the nanoparticles i.e.48–109 nm and is an oval. So, the biogenic synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles by using Zingiber officinale, can be an alternative to chemical synthesis.
