MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641048470 A) filed by Srm Institute Of Science And Technology, Ramapuram Campus; and Easwari Engineering College, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on April 16, for 'plant mediated green synthesis of carbon nanoemulsion and its potential antimicrobial application.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. P. Kowsalya.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present study focuses on the green synthesis of Leucas aspera nanoemulsion and their potential antibacterial applications. The synthesis was carried out by cost effective approach, utilizing plant extracts as reducing and stabilizing agents. The nanoemulsion formulated by using Leucas aspera, coconut oil, castor oil and beeswax. The emulsified materials are allowed for the study of antibacterial activity. Fabricated nanoemulsion characterized by using various analytical techniques, including UV-Vis spectroscopy for optical properties, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) for functional group analysis, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) for morphological studies. The antibacterial activity of the emulsified nanoemulsion was evaluated against selected pathogenic bacterial strains like Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis using standard microbiological methods. The study aims to highlight the potential of Leucas aspera-derived carbon nanoemulsion as an effective and sustainable alternative for antimicrobial applications."
