Green synthesis techniques have drawn a lot of interest lately since they are beneficial to the environment and have potential uses in a variety of industries, including biomedicine. Because of their special physicochemical characteristics, copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) have become one of the most interesting options for use in biological applications among nanomaterials. An overview of green synthesis methods for CuNPs is given in this review, along with a discussion of their applications in cancer therapeutics. The benefits and drawbacks of certain green synthesis techniques, such as plant-mediated, microorganism-mediated, and other environmentally friendly processes, are discussed. Moreover, a thorough discussion is given of CuNPs' biological uses, including their antibacterial activity, anticancer potential, drug transport, and bioimaging capabilities. Furthermore, difficulties and prospects for the application of green-synthesised CuNPs in biomedicine are discussed.
绿色合成技术近年来备受关注，因为它们对环境有益，并且在包括生物医学在内的各种行业中具有潜在用途。由于其特殊的物理化学特性，铜纳米颗粒（CuNPs）已成为纳米材料中生物应用最具吸引力的选择之一。本文综述了CuNPs的绿色合成方法，并讨论了它们在癌症治疗中的应用。讨论了某些绿色合成技术的优缺点，如植物介导、微生物介导和其他环境友好型工艺。此外，还深入讨论了CuNPs的生物学用途，包括它们的抗菌活性、抗癌潜力、药物运输和生物成像能力。此外，还讨论了绿色合成的CuNPs在生物医学应用中的困难和前景。
