Abstract

Copper nanoparticles were synthesized by the reduction method using copper (II) sulfate with the
reducing agent (ascorbic) acid in aqueous mandarin (Citrus reticulata) peel extract characterisation,
and protective polyvinyl alcohol (PVA, Mw = 85000 g/mol). The morphology and structure of the
synthesized copper nanoparticles ranged from 10 – 40 nm by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS),
transmission Electronic Microscope (TEM) and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE –
SEM). It can be controlled during synthesis by varying the reaction temperature, pH and relative ratio
of copper sulfate to the surfactant. These synthesized copper nanoparticles were found to be effective
in controlling the growth of pathogens viz. Corticium salmonicola and Phanerochaete salmon color.
The antifungal activities of copper nanoparticles were enhanced by increasing their concentration and
copper nanoparticles recorded higher events than those of copper sulfate.
