Metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) produced by green synthesis using plant extracts have attracted huge interest in the scientific community due to their excellent antibacterial, antifungal and antibiofilm activities. To evaluate these pharmacological properties, several methods or protocols have been successfully developed and implemented. Although these protocols were mostly inspired by the guidelines from national and international regulatory bodies, they suffer from a glaring absence of standardization of the experimental conditions. This situation leads to a lack of reproducibility and comparability of data from different study settings. To minimize these problems, guidelines for the antimicrobial and antibiofilm evaluation of MNPs should be developed by specialists in the field. Being aware of the immensity of the workload and the efforts required to achieve this, we set out to undertake a meticulous literature review of different experimental protocols and laboratory conditions used for the antimicrobial and antibiofilm evaluation of MNPs that could be used as a basis for future guidelines. This review also brings together all the discrepancies resulting from the different experimental designs and emphasizes their impact on the biological activities as well as their interpretation. Finally, the paper proposes a general overview that requires extensive experimental investigations to set the stage for the future development of effective antimicrobial MNPs using green synthesis.

Creating environmentally friendly materials like polymer matrix composites (PMCs) enhanced with natural fillers has grown in recent decades. It supports the United Nations sustainable development goals (SDGs) by reducing the reliance on non‐renewable resources, minimizing waste generation, and promoting sustainable land and water management practices. This investigation assesses the viability of employing Elaeocarpus ganitrus (rudraksha) seeds as a filler (rudraksha seed filler [RSF] in environmentally sustainable composite materials. Various loading concentrations and sizes of RSFs were incorporated by hand lay‐up into polymer epoxy resin (ER). The effect of filler on the mechanical properties of composites was observed. Thermal properties of RSF/epoxy composites were investigated using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). The 10 wt% 100‐mesh filler had the maximum tensile strength (TS) at 42.30 MPa and flexural strength (FS) at 87.4 MPa, surpassing other filler sizes and loading concentrations. Meanwhile, the highest impact properties have been achieved with 20 wt% of RSF with 0.436 J. The results of this study highlight the significant impact of filler type and concentration on the mechanical properties of the material. These findings offer valuable insights that may be applied to various industrial contexts. Furthermore, incorporating 10% up to 30 wt% RSF in epoxy composites has brought more thermal stability than virgin epoxy. It revealed that the RSFs possess higher decomposition temperatures than the epoxy matrix. RSF has a potential sustainable reinforcement in polymer composites and holds great promise for addressing environmental challenges and aligning with several SDGs.Highlights Interest in eco‐friendly materials, like polymer composites with natural reinforcements, has been increasing in recent decades. Rudraksha sees filler is lightweight with low moisture, high carbon content, and some mineral elements. The addition of Rudraksha seed filler has enhanced the tensile, flexural, and impact properties of the composites. Rudraksha seed filler possess higher decomposition temperatures than the epoxy matrix. Rudraksha seed filler has a promising future as a sustainable friction material for automotive brake pads.
