These organic contaminants threaten living beings due to their toxicity, and some of them can even damage DNA. Consequently, in order to achieve sustainable development, it is necessary to develop eco-friendly tools that can efficiently manage this kind of pollution. In the present study the aqueous extract from the leaves of Leucaena leucocephala (an invasive plant species native to Mexico) was used to produce green nano zero-valent iron (nZVI). The nanomaterial was characterized (TEM, UV\u2013vis, FTIR, SEM, EDS, XRD) and assayed regarding its antioxidant potential (DPPH test) and capacity to remediate the pollution caused by two dyes. It proved to be able to adsorb nigrosine (288.30 mg\/g of nanomaterial) and tartrazine (342.50 mg\/g of nanomaterial), and also displayed antioxidant activity (effective concentration to discolor 50% of the DPPH solution = 286.02 \u03bcg\/mL). Therefore, the biogenic antioxidant nanoparticle proved also to be a possible nanotool to be applied to remediate water contamination caused by these synthetic dyes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms26125751","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,16]],"date-time":"2025-06-16T10:47:22Z","timestamp":1750070842000},"page":"5751","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Synthesis of Antioxidant Nano Zero-Valent Iron Using FeCl2 and Leucaena leucocephala Leaves\u2019 Aqueous Extract and the Nanomaterial\u2019s Potential to Promote the Adsorption of Tartrazine and Nigrosine"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"26","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2285-6710","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fernanda Maria Policarpo","family":"Tonelli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Biotechnological Processes Laboratory, Federal University of S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o del-Rei, Centro-Oeste Campus, Divin\u00f3polis 35501-296, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christopher Santos","family":"Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biotechnological Processes Laboratory, Federal University of S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o del-Rei, Centro-Oeste Campus, Divin\u00f3polis 35501-296, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Geicielly da Costa","family":"Pinto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biotechnological Processes Laboratory, Federal University of S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o del-Rei, Centro-Oeste Campus, Divin\u00f3polis 35501-296, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1220-3724","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lucas Santos","family":"Azevedo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Phytochemistry Laboratory, Federal University of S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o del-Rei, Centro-Oeste Campus, Divin\u00f3polis 35501-296, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9060-3141","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jhenifer Cristina Carvalho","family":"Santos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Food Science, Federal University of Lavras (UFLA), Lavras 37200-900, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-2149-6857","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Danilo Roberto Carvalho","family":"Ferreira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nuclear Technology Development Center (CDTN), Belo Horizonte 31270-901, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-6896-8665","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pamela da Rocha","family":"Patricio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Chemistry Department, Minas Gerais State University (UEMG), Divin\u00f3polis 35501-170, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Giullya Amaral Cordeiro","family":"Lembran\u00e7a","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biotechnological Processes Laboratory, Federal University of S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o del-Rei, Centro-Oeste Campus, Divin\u00f3polis 35501-296, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4130-0304","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Luciana Alves Rodrigues dos Santos","family":"Lima","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Phytochemistry Laboratory, Federal University of S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o del-Rei, Centro-Oeste Campus, Divin\u00f3polis 35501-296, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Clasc\u00eddia Aparecida","family":"Furtado","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nuclear Technology Development Center (CDTN), Belo Horizonte 31270-901, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fl\u00e1via Cristina Policarpo","family":"Tonelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biotechnological Processes Laboratory, Federal University of S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o del-Rei, Centro-Oeste Campus, Divin\u00f3polis 35501-296, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Adriano Guimar\u00e3es","family":"Parreira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Protein Chemistry Laboratory, Federal University of S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o del-Rei, Centro-Oeste Campus, Divin\u00f3polis 35501-296, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"107088","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jwpe.2025.107088","article-title":"A comprehensive review on phycoremediation of azo dye to combat industrial wastewater pollution","volume":"70","author":"Parida","year":"2025","journal-title":"J.
