“…8,38,48 Moreover, nanotechnology plays a crucial role in various sectors due to their non-toxic, biodegradable, and compatible properties with few disadvantages, but these nano-objects are widely used as antioxidants, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, and anti-cancerous and are dominant over other pharmaceuticals including Rubus ellipticus root derived NPs. [67][68][69][70][71] In conclusion, it has been deduced from the current results that Rubus fruticosus leaves were exploited for the rst time for the biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles that play a key role in inhibiting phytopathogens and improving the secondary metabolites. The current results are helpful in the formulation of natural bio-control agents with maximum antibacterial potential from this plant as compared to synthetic agents in controlling plant pathogens.…”

Silver nanoparticles developed via biosynthesis are the most fascinating nanosized particles and encompassed with excellent physicochemical properties. The bioinspired nanoparticles with different shapes and sizes have attracted huge attention due to their stability, low cost, environmental friendliness, and use of less hazardous chemicals. This is an ideal method for synthesizing a range of nanosized metal particles from plants and biomolecules. Optical biosensors are progressively being fabricated for the attainment of sustainability by using opportunities offered by nanotechnology. This review focuses mainly on tuning the optical properties of the metal nanoparticles for optical sensing to explore the importance and applications of bioinspired silver nanoparticles. Further, this review deliberates the role of bioinspired silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) in biomedical, agricultural, environmental, and energy applications. Profound insight into the antimicrobial properties of these nanoparticles is also appreciated. Tailor-made bioinspired nanoparticles with effectuating characteristics can unsurprisingly target tumor cells and distribute enwrapped payloads intensively. Existing challenges and prospects of bioinspired Ag NPs are also summarized. This review is expected to deliver perceptions about the progress of the next generation of bioinspired Ag NPs and their outstanding performances in various fields by promoting sustainable practices for fabricating optical sensing devices.

“…Numerous biological approaches have been employed to create nanoparticles in clean, non-toxic, safe, biocompatible, and ecologically acceptable ways (Supplementary Figure S1) [20]. Metal ion accumulation by these organisms has been viewed as an economical, ecologically benign, and readily achievable occurrence [21][22][23]. It was observed that fast metal ion reduction produced stable NPs with a range of various shapes and sizes.…”

Green-synthesized gold nanoparticles demonstrate several therapeutic benefits due to their safety, non-toxicity, accessibility, and ecological acceptance. In our study, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were created using an extracellular extract from the fungus Schizophyllum commune (S. commune). The reaction color was observed to be a reddish pink after a 24 h reaction, demonstrating the synthesis of the nanoparticles. The myco-produced nanoparticles were investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and UV–visible spectroscopy. The TEM pictures depicted sphere-like shapes with sizes ranging from 60 and 120 nm, with an average diameter of 90 nm, which is in agreement with the DLS results. Furthermore, the efficiency of the AuNPs’ antifungal and cytotoxic properties, as well as their production of intracellular ROS, was evaluated. Our findings showed that the AuNPs have strong antifungal effects against Trichoderma sp. and Aspergillus flavus at increasing doses. Additionally, the AuNPs established a dose-dependent activity against human alveolar basal epithelial cells with adenocarcinoma (A549), demonstrating the potency of synthesized AuNPs as a cytotoxic agent. After 4 h of incubation with AuNPs, a significant increase in intracellular ROS was observed in cancer cells. Therefore, these metallic AuNPs produced by fungus (S. commune) can be used as an effective antifungal, anticancer, and non-toxic immunomodulatory delivery agent.
