Green Synthesis of Cuo Nanoparticles Using Gloriosa Superba L. Extract by Phytochemical Analysis and Antimicrobial Applications

Nanotechnology, Green Chemistry, Material Science, Microbiology.

The preprint investigates the green synthesis of CuO nanoparticles using Gloriosa superba L. extract. This research falls under the normal science stage because it operates within the established paradigm of nanotechnology and green chemistry. It explores a specific application of existing knowledge and techniques, focusing on the synthesis, characterization, and antimicrobial application of CuO nanoparticles. The study doesn’t challenge existing paradigms but rather contributes to the cumulative progress within these fields. While the use of a specific plant extract introduces novelty, it doesn’t constitute a paradigm shift or model revolution. The research adheres to established methodologies and experimental frameworks of these disciplines, further reinforcing its classification as normal science. It could also be considered to be at a pre-paradigm stage given that the large scale manufacturing of these nanoparticles for widespread use has not been studied, however, due to the existence of the nanotechnology and green synthesis paradigms the work is more appropriately classified as normal science, which focuses on puzzle-solving research within an accepted paradigm.
