The cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) were prepared through the Syzygiumcumini leaf extracts. The X-raydiffraction studies confirmed that synthesized CeO2 NPs were exhibited the cubic structure. The SEM image of CeO2 NPs hasexhibited spherical structure. From the EDAX spectral analysis, the elemental compositions were identified. The variousfunctional groups were confirmed by FT-IR spectrum. The UV-Vis absorption spectra, the direct band gap was observed at3.23eV for CeO2 NPs. The antibacterial activity studies were done using K. pneumonia, S. aureus, S. dysenteriae and E. colibacterial strain for CeO2 NPs.
