The study aimed to investigate the cytotoxic potential of IONPs through various assays, such as trypan blue and MTT assays, of the synthesized iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs). The Moringa arborea-mediated IONPs (M A IONPs) were analyzed using a range of techniques, including Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-vis spectroscopy (UV-vis), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The FTIR, XRD, and SEM-EDX results confirmed the successful synthesis of IONPs. A gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of the plant revealed various compounds of medicinal value. The analysis of the UV-vis spectra indicates an absorption peak at 314 nm, thereby ensuring both the successful synthesis and remarkable stability of the nanoparticles. The nanoparticles exhibited a uniform spherical morphology and contained Fe, O, N and some minor elements, confirming the formation of IONPs NPs. The cytotoxic potential on MCF-7 and MDA-MB 231 human breast cancer cells was observed with various concentrations of M A IONPs, and the cytotoxicity results revealed an IC50 of 48. 7 μg/mL and 54. 6 μg/mL, respectively. Stable IONPs were synthesized using a methanolic extract of Moringa arborea. The nanoparticles exhibited cytotoxic potential on highly and weakly metastatic human breast cancer cell lines.
