Abstract
CuO and ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized at room-temperature following a novel, direct, high-yield (>91%) and green method based on a mechanically activated metathesis reaction. The CuO-NPs exhibited a rod-like shape with average length and diameter of 22 and 6 nm, respectively, while the ZnO-NPs showed spherical-like morphology and mean diameter of 15 nm, as determined by TEM. The antimicrobial properties of the NPs and commercially...
