Abstract:BackgroundRecent studies demonstrated that the speed of synthesis, biocompatibility, and antimicrobial activity of gold (Au) and silver (Ag) metals is enhanced when biosynthesized in nano-sized particles. In the present study, Au NPs and Ag NPs were synthesized via a biological process using aqueous Ginger root extract and characterized by various spectroscopic methods. Methods & ResultsThe NPs were found to be in hexagonal and spherical shapes. The average particle size for Au and Ag NPs was found to be 2… Show more
