plants or natural resources have been found to be a good alternative method for nanoparticles synthesis. in this study, polyaniline coated silver nanoparticles (agnps) synthesized from piper betle leaves extract were investigated for their antibacterial activity. silver nanoparticles were prepared from the reduction of silver nitrate and nabh4 was used as reducing agent. silver nanoparticles an...

The antimicrobial effects of silver (Ag) ion or salts are well known, but the effects of Ag nanoparticles on microorganisms and antimicrobial mechanism have not been revealed clearly. Stable Ag nanoparticles were prepared and their shape and size distribution characterized by particle characterizer and transmission electron microscopic study. The antimicrobial activity of Ag nanoparticles was i...

background and aims: although metal and metal oxide nanoparticles are used in different medical applications, they may have considerable toxicity on various cells, such as myocytes. therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the toxicity of the naked and serum-treated silver nanoparticles (ag nps) and magnesium oxide nanoparticles (mgo nps) on the cardiomyocytes. materials and methods: cardiomyocy...

Aqueous extract of shade dried leaves of Euphorbia hirta (L) was used for the synthesis of silver (Ag) nanoparticles. UV-visible spectroscopy studies were carried out to assess the formation Ag nanoparticles. Scanning Electron Microscopic (SEM) was used to characterize the Ag nanoparticles. SEM image divulges that silver nanoparticles are quite polydispersed, the size ranging from 40 nm to 50 n...

A novel method to produce solution-phase triangular silver nanoparticles is presented. Ag nanoparticles are prepared by nanosphere lithography and are subsequently released into solution. The resulting nanoparticles are asymmetrically functionalized to produce either single isolated nanoparticles or dimer pairs. The structural and optical properties of Ag nanoparticles have been characterized. ...

The green synthesis route, in comparison to the conventional chemical and physical procedures, is an easy and eco-friendly alternative to synthesize metallic nanoparticles.
