AB  - Green synthesis is a more sustainable option using renewable biomass such as plants as
reducing or stabilizing agents compared to toxic chemical compounds. These biological
substances also behave as capping agents, which control the size and shape of the
nanoparticles. In this work, ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) have been prepared via a simple, low
cost and ecofriendly method using citrus fruit peel and extracts as biological reducing agents.
Zinc nitrate and zinc acetate were used as a source of zinc ions.XRD analysis revealed the
formation of a ZnO wurtzite phase without impurities. Synthesized ZnO NPs with an average
electronic band gap ∼3 eV were obtained and found to have round-like, hexagonal-like or
needle-like structures depending on precursor type. EDS analysis showed a homogeoneous
distribution in Zn and O elements, attributed to single-phase ZnO constituents. Antibacterial
and antioxidant activities of synthesized NPs were evaluated. Obtained results showed that
ZnO synthesized from nitrate precursors are more effective in inhibiting growth of
Salmonella and Staphylococcus Aureus. Antioxidant activity of ZnO NPs determined using
CUPRAC and ABTS assays showed higher activity of ZnO obtained using nitrate precursors.
The maximum scavenging activity of 90% was observed at the concentration of 10 mg/ml
