The objective of this work is eco-friendly synthesis of Carbon/Copper oxide nano composites (C/CuO nano composites) from the aqueous extract of Aristolochia bracteolata (ABLPAE) via response surface methodology (RSM). Here we optimized various parameters to find out the absorption maximum value using RSM technique. Then the synthesized C/CuO nano composites were processed using different analytical tools. The crystanality of C/CuO was investigated using XRD analysis which exhibited crystalline size of 43 ± 2 nm. Additionally, synthesized C/CuO nano composites were used to study larvicidal activity using MANOVA; LSD-DMRT test. We found that results showed LC50 value at 26.42 ppm and 86.13 ppm for LC90. Ovicidal activity by anti-feedant method resulted in a dose dependent manner with a high mortality rate at higher concentrations. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

A Green Systematic Approach of Carbon/CuO Nano Composites Using Aristolochia bracteolate by Response Surface Methodology

In recent decades, several scientists focused their process towards nanoparticles synthesis by using various sustainable approaches. Cocos nucifera (C. nucifera) was one of the versatile trees in tropical regions which also can act as a thrust quencher in all over the world. Cocos nucifera coir was one of the waste by-products in all coconut-refining industries and with the help C. nucifera coir, Palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) were synthesized. Green-synthesized spherical-shape Pd NPs were over layered by secondary metabolites from C. nucifera coir extract and with an average particle size of 62 ± 2 nm, which were confirmed by morphological analysis. Eco-friendly mediated Pd NPs were further subjected to several biological applications like larvicidal against Aedes aegypti (A. aegypti) and anti-feedent, ovicidal, and oviposition deterrent against agricultural pest Callasobruchus maculates (C. maculates) and compared with C. nuciferacoir methanolic extract, which results in LC50 value of 288.88 ppm and LC90 value of 483.06 ppm using LSD-Tukey’s test against dengue vector (A. aegypti). Cocos nucifera coir methanolic extract shows significant output while compared with Pd NPs towards anti-feedent assays; ovicidal activity and oviposition deterrent were discussed here. © 2016 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
