Custard apple is a dry land fruit. Its leaves exhibit different pharmacological activities. In the present study, both silver (Ag) nanoparticles and chitosan-coated Ag (Chi-Ag) were fabricated using aqueous leaf extract of custard plant. During preliminary phytochemical analysis, various types phytocompounds found in same Next, physiochemically characterized. FTIR analysis exhibited fingerprint...

Biomolecules present in plant extracts can be used to reduce metal ions to nanoparticles in a single-step green synthesis process. This biogenic reduction of metal ion to base metal is quite rapid, readily conducted at room temperature and pressure, and easily scaled up. Synthesis mediated by plant extracts is environmentally benign. The reducing agents involved include the various water solubl...

biogenic reduction of silver ion to base metal is quite rapid, readily conducted at room temperature and pressure, and easily scaled up. synthesis mediated by plant extracts is environmentally benign. the objective of this study was to synthesis of silver nanoparticles (ag-nps) using leaves aqueous extract of nasturtium officinale r. br. (no) and its antibacterial activity. x-ray diffraction (x...

Biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNP) was performed at room temperature using Aloe vera plant extract in the presence of ammoniacal silver nitrate as a metal salt precursor. The formation of AgNP was monitored by UV-visible spectroscopy at different time intervals. The shape and size of the synthesized particle were visualized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission e...

Owing to the unique property of large surface area/volume nanoparticles, scientific developments have revolutionized fields nanotechnology. Nanoparticles can be synthesized through physical, chemical, and biological routes, where biologically nanoparticles are also referred as biogenic-synthesized or bionanoparticles. Bionanoparticles exploit inherent reducing entities develop cost-effective, n...
