Abstract: In healthcare facilities, the rapid emergence of multidrug-resistant pathogenic bacteria necessitates the development of novel strategies to control or prevent their spread. Hence, current research focuses on the fabrication of pure and Ni-doped TiO 2 nanoparticles via green approach by employing aqueous extracts of A.muricata leaves. XRD, FTIR, XPS, HR-TEM, SAED, SEM, EDX, UV–Visible and TGA are used to examine structural, morphological, optical and thermal properties of the obtained nanopowder. XRD pattern reveals all samples have crystalline nature and exhibit the tetragonal anatase phase of TiO 2. XPS measurements confirm successful incorporation of Ni2+ ions into the TiO 2 host lattice. FTIR spectra represent the presence of diverse functional groups along with their vibrational modes. The presence of Ti, O and Ni in EDAX spectra indicates sample purity. Moreover, TiO 2 nanoparticles have a significant cytotoxic effect on L929 normal fibroblast cell lines. Additionally, the DPPH radical scavenging method is used to investigate antioxidant properties. Antimicrobial activity of nanoparticles was assessed against various microbial and fungal strains. Also, photocatalytic action was evaluated for methylene blue and congo red dye degradation in the presence aqueous solution under direct irradiation of sunlight. Thus, the findings suggest A. muricata leaf extract can be utilized for the design and fabrication of pure and Ni-doped TiO 2 nanoparticles, as well as a variety of biomedical and photocatalytic applications.
