Synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles using curcumin: cytotoxic, apoptotic, and necrotic effects on various cell lines.

Nanostructures have distinctive chemical and physical features owing to their surface area and nanoscale size. In this study, silver nanoparticles were synthesized using curcumin, a medicinally valuable natural product. The structure of curcumin-mediated silver nanoparticles (c-AgNPs) was identified by extensive spectroscopic techniques.
