Abstract

This chapter focused on the development of nano-scaled carbon-based materials based on simple, green approach using natural resources such as extracts of various plants or fruit/vegetable peel waste, tea, coffee, alovera, as well as citrus fruits- grape, lemons, oranges etc. for antioxidant, anti-bacterial and anti-cancer applications. The surface functionalization with the high level of polyphenolic compounds, that resist the body from free-radical damage, have been confirmed through FTIR, EDX analysis which can enhance their stability, impart bio-compatibility, anti-bacterial, anti-microbial and anti-cancer activity. The antioxidant activities have been investigated using DPPH free-radical scavenging assay. Furthermore, the bacterial activity of the synthesized nano-materials against various pathogenic organism (gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial strains) has been evaluated. Finally, dose-dependent anti-cancer activity in both in-vitro and in-vivo setting has established the anti-proliferative properties of the nano-materials against different cancer cell-lines.
