| Περίληψη: | Current study investigates the medicinal applications of Butea monosperma (Palash), the state flower of Jharkhand, India, focusing on synthesising biomodified copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO-NPs) and its antifungal properties. Flavonoid content in the flower extract was quantified by aluminium chloride colorimetric analysis. CuO-NPs were synthesised via co-precipitation method and then modified with methanolic flower extract. Characterization confirmed the properties of these NPs including their high crystallinity, spherical structure and nanoscale size (9-90 nm size). Anti-fungal activity revealed significant inhibition of hyphal growth at concentrations of 100-1000 ppm (76.6% for F. oxysporum and 75.05% for S. rolfsii). Statistical and computational analysis confirmed the effectiveness of these NPs by showing strong interactions between the CuO-NPs and fungal proteins. |
