AB  - Plant mediated synthesis of metallic nanomaterials has emerged as a non-toxic and 
      economical approach to their applications in diverse fields especially in 
      biomedical sciences. Herein, this study first time reporting the use of Bombax 
      ceiba flower extract for synthesis of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs). Initially, 
      SeNPs were confirmed by turning the color of reaction mixtures from light yellow 
      to brick-red. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Transmission electron 
      microscopy (TEM) images showed spherical shaped nanoparticles with smooth 
      surface, size ranges between 30 and 150 nm. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) showed 
      100-150 nm for the distribution of particle size. X-ray diffraction (XRD) 
      analysis revealed SeNPs crystallinity and confirmed by matching with selenium 
      JCPD card No. 06-362. Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectra showed presence of 
      pure Se peaks that corroborate the conversion of selenium ions into its elemental 
      form by bio-reduction. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra 
      demonstrated that involvement of -OH, C-H, C=C, and C=O functional groups for 
      SeNPs formation. Raman Spectra peaks at 250 cm(-1) represent asymmetric trigonal 
      selenium (t-Se). Ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer (UV-Vis) peaks at 296 and 
      306 nm which is an indication of surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Moreover, 
      maximum antibacterial activity of SeNPs were observed against Staphylococcus 
      aureus- a gram positive bacteria that possess zone of inhibition (ZOI) 20 mm and 
      Klebsiella pneumonia and Pseudomonas aeruginosa-gram negative bacteria with ZOI 
      28 mm, respectively, at concentration 100 microg/ml. In addition, the surface 
      functionalities induced through extract components adhere over Se binds with urea 
      and give its detection up to 1mM in milk sample. Conclusively, synthesized SeNPs 
      may function as a potential antibacterial pharmaceutical candidate.
