“…Teucrium polium and Ocimumbasilicum were evaluated for AgNP formation, with potential antibacterial, antitumor and antioxidant activities. Biosynthesized AgNPs were also employed to study their cytotoxic activities against the HEP G2 cell line [ 65 ]. Ghramh et al (2020) formulated spherical AgNPs of 40–45 nm using the ethanolic extract of Ruta graveolens and studied the different biological activities, immune modulation, anticancer and insecticidal potential in the extracts.…”

Rapid advances in nanotechnology have led to its emergence as a tool for the development of green synthesized noble metal nanoparticles, especially silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), for applications in diverse fields such as human health, the environment and industry. The importance of AgNPs is because of their unique physicochemical and antimicrobial properties, with a myriad of activities that are applicable in various fields, including the pharmaceutical industry. Countries with high biodiversity require the collection and transformation of information about biological assets into processes, associations, methods and tools that must be combined with the sustainable utilization of biological diversity. Therefore, this review paper discusses the applicable studies of the biosynthesis of AgNPs and their antimicrobial activities towards microorganisms in different areas viz. medicine and agriculture. The confirmed antiviral properties of AgNPs promote their applicability for SARS-CoV-2 treatment, based on assimilating the virus’ activities with those of similar viruses via in vivo studies. In this review, an insight into the cytotoxicity and safety issues of AgNPs, along with their future prospects, is also provided.

Textile industries are the largest consumer of synthetic dyestuff compounds and consequently, they are the prime contributor of colored organic contaminants to the environment. The dye compounds when released in soil or freshwater resources such as rivers, cause a potential hazard to living beings due to their toxic, allergic and carcinogenic nature. Current conventional treatment methods for removal or degradation of such dyestuff materials from water systems are not sufficient, and therefore, there is an immediate need to find efficient and eco-friendly approaches. In this regard, nanotechnology can offer an effective solution to this problem. In the present work, montmorillonite/silver nanocomposite (MMT/Ag nanocomposite) is developed through green synthesis methods using naturally occurring montmorillonite (MMT) clay and silver nanoparticles. The material was characterized by using a particle size analyzer (PSA), UV/Visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy and a Brunner–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area analyzer. The adsorption efficiency of the nanocomposite and per cent removal of methylene blue (MB) was investigated by using a batch system.

“…Montmorillonite is a very promising support for the preparation of nanocomposites, due to its particular characteristics such as high ion exchange capacity, swelling, intercalation and layered nanostructure that make it a suitable solid support for the green synthesis of MNP. 53,85–89 Yang et al 86 successfully prepared a nanocomposite of nZVI/montmorillonite using a low-cost and environment friendly green synthesis via tea leaf extract. Although few studies propose the nanocomposite formation mechanism, the authors suggest that during the synthesis with green tea extract, the unique structure of montmorillonite with isolated exchangeable cations of Fe( iii ) results in nZVI particle formation, covered by organic matter (green tea extract) in the clay interlayer associated with negative charges (Fig.…”
