The present research demonstrates the formation of zinc oxide nanoparticles facilitated by Cissus quadrangularis (CQ-ZnONPs) and subsequent synthesis of chitosan-conjugated nanocomposites (CQ-CS/ZnONCs) along with their biological assessment. The biosynthesized nanoparticles and nanocomposites were physicochemically characterized and therapeutically assessed for their antioxidant, antibacterial, and antidiabetic potential. The formation of CQ-ZnONPs and CQ-CS/ZnONCs was preliminarily validated by the change in color and subsequently by UV-visible spectroscopic analysis. The crystalline peaks associated with the CQ-ZnONPs in CQ-CS/ZnONCs were established by XRD analysis. Morphological evaluation of CQ-ZnONPs and CQ-CS/ZnONCs was carried out through FE-SEM and HRTEM studies. The particle size of the CQ-ZnONPs and CQ-CS/ZnONCs was 243.3 nm and 176.6 nm, with a PDI of 0.188 and 0.199, respectively. Nanoparticles and nanocomposites expressed Zeta potential of -15.7 mV and -16.2 mV, respectively. The CQ-ZnONPs and CQ-CS/ZnONCs showed good radical effectiveness with various in-vitro assays. The formulated nanoparticles and nanocomposites displayed significant antibacterial activity against the selected bacterial pathogens. CQ-CS/ZnONCs presented noteworthy α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory effects compared to CQ-ZnONPs with IC50 of 73.66 ± 1.21 μg/mL and 87.59 ± 1.29 μg/mL, respectively. Moreover, the synthesized CQ-CS/ZnONCs demonstrated 98.92 ± 0.39% and 99.58 ± 0.16% wound contraction (at 7 and 14 mg, respectively), significantly (p < 0.05) higher than the standard and CQ-ZnONPs. Thus, the CQ-ZnONPs and CQ-CS/ZnONCs could effectively develop promising drug delivery systems to inhibit pathogens and chronic tissue repair.
