  The characterizations of green synthesized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) prepared using Ocimum sanctum leaf extract were done by UV-Spectrophotometer at 500-540 nm. The XRD data obtained were found similar to gold JCPDS File No- 04-0784. SEM and TEM analysis of AuNPs revealed spherical shape and size of 200 nm. Further FT-IR data indicated the various biomolecules present in Ocimum sanctum leaf extract provides stability to gold nanoparticles synthesis. The AuNPs were studied for their anti-cancer activity on Dalton’s lymphoma (DL) cells and the results obtained with IC50 value of < 50 ng/ml performed by MTT assay. Further, to confirm anti-tumor potential and the mode of action of the synthesized AuNPs, cell viability assay, nuclear morphology, DNA fragmentation assay, mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) analysis, and cell cycle analysis were done using DL cells.
