“…Also, antibacterial effect against E. coli, S. aureus and B. subtilis was confirmed through green synthesis of Ag NPs. 30,63 This activity may be resulted from the attaching of copper ions (released by the NPs) to the negatively charged bacterial cell membrane. 42 In the case of antibacterial effect mechanisms, physical disruption and oxidative stress are major cause of NPs toxicity.…”

“…(ATCC 48559), and A. niger (ATCC 6275), and it was found to exhibit good antifungal activity. 260 The antifungal activity of AgNPs against C. tropicalis and C. albicans was also investigated. Stable nanoparticles of size 12.5±4.9 nm (mean ± SD) were obtained, which presented high activity against Candida spp.…”

Silver nanotechnology has received tremendous attention in recent years, owing to its wide range of applications in various fields and its intrinsic therapeutic properties. In this review, an attempt is made to critically evaluate the chemical, physical, and biological synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as well as their efficacy in the field of theranostics including microbiology and parasitology. Moreover, an outlook is also provided regarding the performance of AgNPs against different biological systems such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites (leishmanial and malarial parasites) in curing certain fatal human diseases, with a special focus on cancer. The mechanism of action of AgNPs in different biological systems still remains enigmatic. Here, due to limited available literature, we only focused on AgNPs mechanism in biological systems including human (wound healing and apoptosis), bacteria, and viruses which may open new windows for future research to ensure the versatile application of AgNPs in cosmetics, electronics, and medical fields.

“…Since then, the use of plant extracts in the synthesis of NPs escalated leading to a new era in green synthesis. Many investigators have demonstrated that the synthesis of NPs by plant extracts can be accomplished in the metal salt solution within a matter of minutes at room temperature, however, rate of synthesis depends on the nature of plant extracts (Table 3) [ [49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60] . There are many other factors as type of metal salt used, concentration of plant extract, temperature and pH, which affect the synthesis of NPs [26] .…”

Qidwai, et al.: Biogenic Advances in NanoparticlesInnovations in the nanotechnological arena have paved a path leading to nano-revolution, which has most recently unfurled the role of plants in the biogenic synthesis of nanoparticles. Though synthesis of nanoparticles can be accomplished through physical and chemical techniques, biological course of synthesis has proficiently proved competent over other techniques. The problem of evolving multidrug resistant bacteria, due to irrational use of antibiotics, makes the biogenically synthesized nanoparticles attractive, due to their promising efficacy with negligible side effects. Consequently, the nanoparticles becoming better substitutes for conventional treatment besides overcoming all the limitations. Nanoparticles have great stability and potent antibacterial activity. The uniqueness lies in their size (10 and 500 nm) and dimension offers these particles to dynamically communicate with biomolecules on the cell surfaces and within the cells, so proficiently to decode and designate various biochemical and physiochemical properties of the cells. The present review aims to recapitulate various emerging efforts in the biogenic synthesis of nanoparticles, most significantly their unique mechanisms of action with different approaches as well as the factors that may add up to their antimicrobial activity.
