A review: Plant extract mediated Biosynthesis of silver nano-particles

Biosynthesis of Nanoparticles is a novel way to synthesis Nanoparticles by using Biological sources. It is gaining attention due to it's cost-effective, eco-friendly, non-toxic, energy-efficient, less time consuming, environmentally safe and protecting human health. Biosynthesis of nanoparticles is an eco-friendly approach that might have the way for researchers across the globe to explore the potential of different herbs to synthesize nanoparticles. Metal nanoparticles have received significant attention in recent years owing to their unique properties and applications. The characterization of metal nanoparticles has been performed using a UV-Visible spectrophotometer, Fourier Transform Infra-red Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). The main objective of this thesis work is to investigate the antimicrobial and in vitro anticancer effects induced by biosynthesized metal Nanoparticles for biomedical or pharmaceutical field interest.
