- Description
- Pathogenic microbes pose a significant threat to human health due to their increasing resistance to standard antibiotics. Colon cancer is among the deadliest forms of cancer worldwide and often exhibits resistance to conventional treatments, highlighting the urgent need for alternative therapeutic agents. In this study, a SrO2SALA nanocomposite was synthesized via a green chemical approach using Bougainvillea glabra extract and evaluated for its anticancer, antioxidant, and antimicrobial potential. In this work, SrO2-SA-LA nanocomposite was prepared via a green chemical approach using Bougainvillea glabra extract and evaluated for its potential anticancer, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. The nanocomposite was successfully synthesized and functionalized, as confirmed by characterization studies. XRD revealed a crystalline phase of tetragonal SrO2. The calculated optical bandgap energies were 4.11eV for pristine SrO2 and 4.35eV for SrO2-SA-LA nanocomposite. DLS analysis indicated median particle sizes of 128.40nm and 142.70nm for SrO? and SrO2SALA, respectively. PL studies showed that the SrO2SALA nanocomposite exhibited green emission in the range of 494534nm, suggesting an increase in oxygen-related defect states compared to pure SrO2. Disc diffusion assay revealed that SrO2-SA-LA nanocomposite exhibited enhanced antimicrobial activity against common disease-causing pathogens, while MTT assay showed enhanced cytotoxicity against HCT-116 colon cancer cells. Additionally, the SrO2-SA-LA nanocomposite exhibited superior free radical scavenging in DPPH assays, indicating high antioxidant potential. Furthermore, cytocompatibility studies using L929 fibroblast cells confirmed that both SrO? and SrO?SALA nanocomposite are non-toxic to normal cells, with cell viability exceeding 80%, indicating their biosafety. The results suggest that SrO2-SA-LA nanocomposite is a promising candidate for applications in anticancer, antioxidant, and antimicrobial therapies with good biocompatibility.
