Nickel oxide nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by using a simple and green synthetic route by using metal salt and fruit extract of Tribulus terrestris which act as reducing and stabilizing agent .The synthesized nickel oxide nanoparticles were characterized by using various analytical techniques such as UV-VISIBLE DRS, FT-IR, XRD, EDAX, FESEM, TEM. Biological test results exposed that synthesized nickel oxide nanoparticles have broad spectrum antimicrobial activities against Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Aspergillus niger and cytotoxic activity on MCF-7 cell line.
