    This study presents the green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) using mango peel extract (MgE) as a natural reducing and stabilizing agent. Phytochemical extraction was performed with deionized water, ethanol, and methanol for 1 h to 5 h, with deionized water at 4 h yielding the highest flavonoid content. Using zinc nitrate as a precursor, 25 mL of MgE successfully facilitated the synthesis of ZnO-NPs (ZnO-25MgE). It was found that annealing temperature at 400°C for 6 h produced pure ZnO. The obtained nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). XRD confirmed the crystalline structure with an average size of 6.67 nm, while FT-IR and FE-SEM analyses revealed Zn–O vibrations, residual organics, and nanoscale morphology. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) indicated the appropriate annealing temperature for the removal of organics. For comparison, chemically synthesized ZnO was also characterized, and its antibacterial activity was assessed via disc diffusion against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The results demonstrated notable inhibition, highlighting the potential of biosynthesized ZnO-NPs for antimicrobial applications.
