Abstract: Introduction: Utilizing commelina benghalensis mediated zinc oxide nanoparticles for controlling pathogens causing urinary tract infections ( UTI ).Zinc oxide nanoparticles have antioxidant and antimicrobial properties which makes them useful component to use against uti pathogens Aim:To synthesize zinc oxide nanoparticles in eco friendly environments and to evaluate the antibiotic and antibacterial effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles mediated by commelina benghalensis plant extract. Materials and methods: The plant extract is prepared by utilizing commelina benghalensis as a component. The zinc oxide nanoparticles are synthesized using zinc sulfate and distilled water. The antibacterial and inhibitory effect of nanoparticles were evaluated by agar well diffusion technique . Results: The results suggest that C. benghalensis (ZnO NPs) has antibacterial properties against these UTI pathogens, with increasing effectiveness at high concentrations.The "Standard" category shows much larger zones of inhibition for S. aureus and E. coli (both around 40 mm), while Klebsiella sp. has a lower value (about 15 mm). Conclusion: This study aims to demonstrate the effects of commelina benghalensis mediated zinc oxide nanoparticles against UTI pathogens. Further research and comparison is needed for evaluating antibacterial effects of Zinc oxide nanoparticles.Future research could further explore the specific mechanisms by which these nanoparticles inhibit bacterial growth, potentially leading to new treatments or preventive measures for UTIs.
