摘要

Nanoscale CuO was synthesized by precipitating Cu2O in an alkaline medium in presence of potato extract, followed by oxidation in air. It was shown that the material consisted of nanoparticles with an average size of 25 nm. It was found that the obtained CuO had high antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, which exceeded the activity of copper oxide obtained without the use of potato extract.
