The phyto-synthesized AgNPs were characterized to be stable, monodispersed, polycrystalline and mostly spheroidal in conformation. The nano-spheriods were observed to be 25-75 nm in diameter, displaying λ peak at 430 nm.

This hypothesis is supported by the fact that plants possess active bio-ingredients that function as powerful reducing and coating agents for Ag+. In this respect, a phytomediation method provides favourable monodisperse, crystalline, and spherical particles that can be easily purified by ultra-centrifugation.

The ultraviolet-visible spectroscopic analysis revealed that λ-max for AgNPs range from 350-500 nm. All AgNPs possessed polycrystalline structure as notified as intense graphical peaks in complete spectrum of 20 values ranging from 10-80° in X-ray diffraction measurements and supported by scanning electron microscopy data.
