Abstract

This research is based on the creation of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO-NPs) hydrogel through in situ method. The effective UV-Vis spectroscopy absorption peak of 610 nm indicates the existence of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO-NP) group because of surface Plasmon resonance (SPR). Characterization of CuO-NPs was carried out by SEM, TEM, EDX, and XRD. However, the action of prepared nanocomposite hydrogels swelling was examined at different pH and saline solutions. In addition, CuO-NPs were also tested using the disk plate diffusion method by means of adverse effect of bacteria Gram-positive bacteria (Bacillus subtilis) as well as Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli). The CuO-NPs hydrogels isolated from lab-made CMC (made from sugarcane bagasse) indicates that the Bacillus subtilis as well as Escherichia coli have greater antibacterial activity compared with synthetic CMC purchase from the market. CuO-NPs can be used effectively in biomedical applications with the production of hydrogels.
