“…Among the different chemical, physical, and biological methods of nanoparticle synthesis, the biological synthesis of NPs using plants has been preferred over bacteria and fungi methods due to the fast process, toxicity elimination, energy consumption, and the obtained eco-and environment-friendly NPs [6]. Currently, various plant-mediated NPs were synthesized, including iron oxide NPs, copper NPs, calcium NPs, gold NPs, zinc oxide NPs, and silver NPs (AgNPs) using different plants such as Hordeum vulgare [7,8], Phragmanthera austroarabica extract [9], Moringa oleifera [10], Spondias dulcis [11], Hibiscus sabdariffa L. extract [12], and Vaccinium archtostaphlyos [13], respectively. In addition, AgNP applications in the food and healthcare industries have been investigated [14][15][16].…”

Much attention has been gained on green silver nanoparticles (green-AgNPs) in the medical field due to their remarkable effects against multi-drug resistant (MDR) microorganisms and targeted cancer treatment. In the current study, we demonstrated a simple and environment-friendly (i.e., green) AgNP synthesis utilizing Jacobaea maritima aqueous leaf extract. This leaf is well-known for its medicinal properties and acts as a reducing and stabilizing agent. Nanoparticle preparation with the desired size and shape was controlled by distinct parameters; for instance, temperature, extract concentration of salt, and pH. The characterization of biosynthesized AgNPs was performed by the UV-spectroscopy technique, dynamic light scattering, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Fourier-transform infrared. The successful formation of AgNPs was confirmed by a surface plasmon resonance at 422 nm using UV-visible spectroscopy and color change observation with a particle size of 37± 10 nm and a zeta potential of −10.9 ± 2.3 mV. SEM further confirmed the spherical size and shape of AgNPs with a size varying from 28 to 52 nm. Antibacterial activity of the AgNPs was confirmed against all Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial reference and MDR strains that were used in different inhibitory rates, and the highest effect was on the E-coli reference strain (MIC = 25 μg/mL). The anticancer study of AgNPs exhibited an IC50 of 1.37 μg/mL and 1.98 μg/mL against MCF-7 (breast cancer cells) and A549 (lung cancer cells), respectively. Therefore, this green synthesis of AgNPs could have a potential clinical application, and further in vivo study is required to assess their safety and efficacy.
