Green synthesis of cytotoxic assay of iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe2O3) NPs was on cancer cell line prepared from mixing (henna) extract with iron chloride (III) salts at 200 oC for 2 hours by simple chemical method. (Fe2O3) NPs were identified using X-ray diffraction, filed Emission-Scanning Electron Microscopy, Ultravolite visble, and Photoluminescence. XRD measurements explained crystalline size (30) nm with (hexagonal) structure for (Fe2O3) NPs using henna extract. FE-SEM showed average grain size of (Fe2O3) NPs were (18.61) nm. (Fe2O3) NPs were tested for their cytotoxic effect against human cancer cells and inhibition rate % results were very high. Results of inhibition rate % for (Fe2O3) NPs using henna extract for human cancer cells were (78.9%).
