Abstract In the present study, a green, sustainable, simple and low-cost method was adopted for synthesis of ZnO NPs, first time, using aqueous extract sea lavender, Limonium pruinosum (L.) Chaz., as reducing, capping, stabilizing agent. The obtained NPs were characterized ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy (UV–VIS), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), transmission (TEM), diffraction (XRD) thermogravimetric (TGA). UV–Vis spectra green synthesized showed strong absorption peak at about 370 nm. Both XRD confirmed hexagonal/cubic crystalline structure with an average size ~ 41 It is worth noting that cytotoxic effect on investigated cancer cells dose-dependent. IC 50 skin 409.7 µg/ml NPs. Also, phyto-synthesized nanoparticles exhibited potent antibacterial antifungal activity particularly against Gram negative bacteria Escherichia coli (ATCC 8739) pathogenic fungus Candida albicans 10221). Furthermore, they considerable antioxidant potential. Thus, making them promising biocompatible candidate pharmacological therapeutic applications.
