• Environmental friendly.
• Effective
ADVANTAGES
FUTURE PROSPECTIVE
• Numerous application in medical as well as in
environmental field
• Antibacterial and Antifungal activity
CONCLUSION
Green chemistry approach towards the synthesis of nanoparticles has many advantages such as, ease
with which the process can be scaled up and economic viability.
No chemical reagent or surfactant template was required in this method.
Colour change occurs due to surface Plasmon resonance during the reaction with the ingredients
present in the plant leaves extract results in the formation of silver nanoparticles which is confirmed
by UV–vis, XRD and SEM, having average mean size of 80-100 nm and had cubical, pyramidal
structure
The silver nanoparticles show efficient antimicrobial activity compared to other salts due to their
extremely large surface area, which provides better contact with microorganisms.
Silver is ideally suited for effective control of germs, molds and fungus. Its benefit over the use of
antibiotics can be used as a powerful strategy to combat the increasing spread of multi drug resistance
resulting from broad use of antibiotics.
Silver nanoparticles have many different applications in electronic, optical, catalytic, and medicinal
industries
