| Sumario: | Abstract Green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) through simple, rapid, eco-friendly and an economical method with a new haloalkaliphilic bacterial strain (Alkalibacillus sp. W7) was investigated. Response surface methodology (RSM) based on Box-Behnken design (BP) was used to optimize the process parameters (ZnSO4.7H2O concentration, temperature, and pH) affecting the size of Alkalibacillus-ZnO NPs (Alk-ZnO NPs). The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using UV–visible spectrum, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM–EDX), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Zeta potential. The UV–Vis spectrum of ZnO NPs revealed a characteristic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) peak at 310 nm. XRD pattern confirmed the hexagonal wurtzite structure of highly pure with a crystallite size 19.5 nm. TEM proved the quasi-spherical shape nanoparticles of size ranging from 1 to 30 nm. SEM–EDX showed spherical shaped and displayed a maximum elemental distribution of zinc and oxygen. FTIR provided an evidence that the biofunctional groups of metabolites in Alkalibacillus sp.W7 supernatant acted as viable reducing, capping and stabilizing agents. |
