First time in this study, organic@inorganic hybrid copper nanofowers (Cu NFs) were synthesized by using cherry stem
extract as an organic component and Cu2+ ion as an inorganic component. For this purpose, cherry stalk extracts were
obtained by using ethanol and water solvents. Cu NFs were synthesized in diferent amounts of extract (100–1000 µl) and
under various pH (7.4–9) conditions. The morphologies of the synthesized Cu NFs were evaluated by feld emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The functional groups in the cherry stem extract, which play an active role for the
synthesis process, and the crystal structure of NFs were investigated by Fourier transform ınfrared spectroscopy and X-ray
difraction techniques, respectively. It has been determined by the FE-SEM analysis that ethanol and water based cherry
stem extracts are suitable for Cu NFs synthesis in a wide range of pH (7.4–9). This data is crucial for overcoming important
limitations for NF synthesis, such as narrow-range medium pH. The catalytic, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activities of Cu
NFs were evaluated. It was revealed that Cu NFs have catalytic, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activities. It is recommended
that, cherry stem extract and diferent inorganic components are functional to synthesize numerous NFs and to evaluate the
adequacy of use in biomedical felds
