The present paper describes the biological synthesis of Cu NPs by aqueous extract of Beta Vulgaris, commonly called beetroot. Betalains present in the Beta Vulgaris have the capability of reducing and capping Cu NPs preventing the agglomeration and oxidation of Cu NPs. The formation of Cu NPs was confirmed by various spectroscopic techniques such as UV-Visible spectrophotometer, FT-IR, SEM and EDAX analysis. After confirmation, antibacterial properties were analyzed against three bacterial strains E. coli, Promicromonospora and Bacillus subtilis. They were found to show good antibacterial properties.
