GREEN SYNTHESIS OF SILVER NANOPARTICLES (AgNPS) CONTAINING COMBINATION OF AQUEOUS EXTRACT OF Capsicum annuum L. AND SAFFRON: BIOSYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION, AND ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY
Abstract:Silver nanoparticles or Ag-Nanoparticles (AgNPs), which exhibit antimicrobial and biomedical activities, have many benefits in the health sector. AgNPs can be prepared using chemicals such as sodium borohydride (NaBH4). The green synthesis of AgNPs is an environmentally friendly alternative and is cost-effective. Capsicum annuum L. combined with saffron extract was used to synthesize the AgNPs. The biosynthesis, characterization, and antibacterial activity of AgNPs were studied in this study. The synthesized A… Show more
