Opis

Recently, nanotechnology is a burning field of science and popular among the researchers. It deals the formation and the activity of nanoparticles. Nanoparticles are used immensely due to its small size, orientation, physical properties, which are reportedly shown to change the performance of any other material which is in contact with these tiny particles. Biological method (Bacteria, fungi, viruses, algae, and plants) in which plants or plants extract are used which is most suitable among physical and chemical method of synthesis of Silver nanoparticles. Plants extract have several biologically active compounds like phenols alkaloids, terpenes, which played important role in the formation of silver nanoparticles. The aim of present work was to synthesis of silver nanoparticles by green methods and its antibacterial activity in which we found that these nanoparticles have strong antibacterial activity due to presence of capping agent on silver nanoparticles.
