Among the most notable nanotechnology applications is its employment in environmental remediation and biomedical applications. Nonetheless, there a need for cleaner sustainable methods preparing nanomaterials that use cheaper, more environment-friendly precursors than conventional synthesis process. The green chemistry approach preparation of nanoparticles becoming attractive as it uses non-tox...

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...

Plant-mediated synthesis of metal oxide nanoparticles is a promising alternative to the traditional method of physical and chemical synthesis. In this paper, we report the green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) by a biological method. During the study, Zinc oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by Allium sativum skin (garlic skin) extract. Formation of zinc oxide nanoparticles has ...

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...
