Copper nanoparticles received much attention due to its high electrical conductivity, high melting point, low electrochemical migration behavior and low cost. This review focuses on the distinct features of synthesis of copper nanoparticles by various methods. A detailed study of reduction of copper ion into copper nanoparticles mediated through chemical and most efficient green synthesis method ware demonstrated with brief experimental procedures. Some method requires external reducing capping and stabilizing agent for synthesis where as other uses radiation source. The synthesize nanoparticles with different size and shapes like cubes, triangular, wires etc. ware characterized through U-V visible spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infra-Red Spectroscopy, X- Ray Diffraction analysis, Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM), and high resolution Transmission Electron spectroscopy (TEM). Nanoparticles ware comparatively analyzed for their absorbance, stabilization of bond, particle size in nanometer and particle shapes contributing configuration respectively. The Clinical significance of copper nanoparticles conferring the antimicrobial activity was studied with the zone of inhibition produced by some pathogenic gram positive and gram negative bacteria and fungus respectively. This review emphasis the ecofriendly, cost effective, nonhazardous and green method of synthesis nanoparticles by using different plant part extracts which overcomes the other chemical method with all the way.
