Highlights The CuO/GO nanocomposite has been prepared using two selected precursors of copper nitrate and citric acid with an intermittent mixing of GO solutions. CuO nanoparticles decoration on GO sheets to coincide the enrichment of activity and stability from their cooperation. CuO/GO nanocomposite has appreciable activity towards pathogenic bacteria, free radicals, and cancer cell lines. The as-prepared nanocomposite is proposed as a novel nanomaterial for theranostic activities bearing both therapeutic attributes along with diagnostic nature in the biological domain and healthcare.
