in the present study, a simple, efficient and fast synthetic strategy was reported for the green biosynthesis of silver nanostructures (i.e. nanoroads and nanoparticles) by the extract of suaeda acuminata plant, without any catalyst, template or surfactant. aqueous extracts were obtained by maceration and microwave assisted extraction (mae) methods. in mae procedure, the effect of microwave pow...

A facile and green approach has been developed to synthesize silver nanoparticle (Ag-NPs). This was carried out by a biosynthetic route using Justicia Adhatoda root extract as reducing and stabilizing agent. The structure, composition, average particle size (~25 nm) and surface morphology of Ag-NPs were characterized by the X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscope and atomic...

A novel greener method to impregnate silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) into microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) by curry leaf (Murraya koenigii) extract is presented. The active reduction of silver ions by curry leaf extract was explored for the in situ impregnation AgNPs into MCC. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis of MCC coated with AgNPs showed the formation of silver particle sizes in ...

In this work the Origanum vulgare leaf extract was used to green synthesis of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) supported on Hazelnut shell as an environmentally benign support. The Ag NPs/Hazelnut shell as an effective catalyst was prepared through reduction of Ag+ ions using Origanum vulgare leaf extract as the reducing and capping agent and Ag NPs immobilization on Hazelnut shell surface in ...

in this study, silver nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical reduction method at different concentrations of ag colloid in the range of 500-16000 ppm. nanoparticles were deposited by spin coating method on pre-etched glass and si substrates. structural, optical and electrical properties of the samples were studied using scanning electron microscopy equipped with edax, uv-vis spectrophotomet...
