Nano particles are the small, minute substance that behaves the whole unit with respect to its transport and properties ,which have a size range between 1 – 100 nm. Because of their minute property nature , they are commonly used in industry such as Biomedical field, electronic field, optical field, food industry and in textile industry etc. Nano particles have superior properties than bulk materials like electric conductivity, mechanical strength, thermal ability. Because of their amazing property, so much researchers work more on their field of nano particles to make it much more effective and useful to day to-day life. In the present study, zinc oxide nano particles were synthesised from passion fruit leaves. Further production of nano particles from plant extract was performed. We were tested the antibacterial and antifungal property of nano particles , it was found that na o particles enhanced the prolubition growth of bacteria - Salmonella typhi, Pseudomonas aeruginos, Listeria , E. coli, P. oryzae and Pneumonia. And it also inhibited the growth of fungi Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus niger . The result evaluated that the bacteria and fungi inhibited by the Passiflora edulis leaf nano particles.
