Technofunctional properties of rhizome powder were evaluated and during thermal stability evaluation four stages of decomposition with a maximum delta Y value of 76.04 % was observed. Optimization of Mg NPs was carried out by employing eight different concentrations (C1-C8) and the C4 showed maximum absorbance at 330 nm confirming the NPs synthesis. The Mg NPs showed the particle size of 62 nm, zeta potential of -24.7 mV and hexagonal mprphology. Potential inhibition against S. aureus and E. coli (76.78 +/- 0.05% and 74.62 +/- 0.17%)and anti-inflammatory activity ranging from 42.43 +/- 0.07-82.92 +/- 0.04% was observed for Mg NPs. Therefore, green synthesis of Mg NPs is a promising approach for the development ofbiological active NPs to cure microbial infections.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessGreen synthesismagnesium nanoparticlesBerberis aristateanti-inflammatoryanti-biofilmArticle10.1080/09603123.2023.227184434727522765Q2WOS:0010939314000012-s2.0-8517473398837879627Q1
