Biogenic Synthesis of AgNPs with C.B. Clarke and Studies on Their Biochemical Properties.

Nanotechnology has become an irreplaceable need and green synthesis of nanoparticles offers several advantages over physical and chemical methods. Medicinal plants are the main reservoirs of drugs and drug candidates. We report the biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using aqueous root extract of Saussurea lappa.

Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using and Biological Activities.

Green syntheses of nanoparticles using plant materials are of tremendous scope. Here we report advantageous green synthesis for silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using aqueous-root extract of Jurinea dolomiaea and AgNO3. Color change of solution and UV-Vis absorption at 444 nm indicated the formation of AgNPs.
