This paper gives an account of the combination of CuO nanoparticles (NPs) by the leaves concentrate ofcentellaasiatica plant in fluid medium through green blend and their portrayals regarding morphology, structure, andcrystallinity and reactant properties. The use of plant leaves extract in the synthesis of nanostructured materials can be ecofriendly, non-toxic and cost effective approach. The leaf extract acts as both reducing and capping agent. The synthesizedcopper oxide nanoparticles are characterized byUV (Ultra Violet), FT-IR (Fourier Transform Infrared), XRD (X-rayDiffraction), and FE-SEM –EDX (Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy- Energy Dispersive X-ray), TEM(Transmission Electron Microscopy), and antibacterial activity studies. The formation of CuO nanoparticles will beconfirmed by their XRD Spectrum. The FESEM images will give shape and size of nanoparticles.
