Hippophae rhamnoides L. (sea buckthorn) mediated green synthesis of copper nanoparticles and their application in anticancer activity.

Scientists used the stem extract of a Himalayan plant to synthesize copper nanoparticles. These nanoparticles showed potential as an anticancer agent, reducing cell viability and inducing apoptosis in HeLa cancer cell lines.
