Nanotechnology is the scientific field that has recently expanded due to its applications in pharmaceutical field, various industry and agriculture. The present study outlines the development of a method to synthesize copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) by mixing copper nitrate solution with aqueous root extract of Ocimum sanctum without using any surfactant or external energy. The green synthesized Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, FTIR, and SEM. The XRD shows that crystalline nature of Copper nanoparticle with particle size range between 17-22 nm, which was also confirmed by FTIR Spectra. The surface morphology shows Copper a nanoparticle has globular morphology.
