“…Currently a variety of metallic and nonmetallic nanoparticles such as gold, alginate, silver, copper, zinc, titanium, magnesium, platinum and silica etc., are emerged. These nanoparticles are used in various fields such as optical devices (Anderson and Moskovits, 2006), catalytic (Jiang et al, 2005), bactericidal (Sekar et al, 2011), antibiofouling (Agarwal et al, 2014), dye degradation (Priyaragini et al, 2014), electronic (Rao et al, 2000), sensor technology (Sharpe and Andreescu, 2015), treatment of some cancers (Praetorius and Mandal, 2007) and malaria (Karthik et al, 2013). This wide range of application justifies the research and development inputs required in the field of nanotechnology.…”
