Abstract The current research aimed to study the green synthesis of silver oxide nanoparticles (AgONPs) using Rhynchosia capitata (RC) aqueous extract as a potent reducing and stabilizing agent. obtained RC-AgONPs were characterized UV, FT-IR, XRD, DLS, SEM, EDX investigate morphology, size, elemental composition. size was found be ~ 21.66 nm an almost uniform distribution executed by XRD analysis. In vitro studies performed reveal biological potential. AgONPs exhibited efficient DPPH free radical scavenging potential (71.3%), power (63.8 ± 1.77%), total antioxidant capacity (88.5 4.8%) estimate their antioxidative power. Antibacterial antifungal potentials evaluated disc diffusion method against various bacterial fungal strains, zones inhibition (ZOI) determined. A brine shrimp cytotoxicity assay conducted measure (LC 50 : 2.26 μg/mL). addition, biocompatibility tests evaluate biocompatible nature red blood cells, HEK, VERO cell lines (< 200 An alpha-amylase carried out with 67.6% inhibition. Moreover, vitro, anticancer activity Hep-2 liver cancer lines, LC value 45.94 μg/mL achieved. Overall, present has demonstrated that utilization R. for biosynthesis offers cost-effective, eco-friendly, forthright alternative traditional approaches nanoparticle synthesis. significant bioactive properties, positioning them promising candidates diverse applications in spheres medicine beyond.
