“…The results illustrated that the prepared nanoparticles exhibited remarkable efficiency toward Urease (IC 50 = 36.81 ± 0.05 µg/mL) and Xanthine (IC 50 = 3.60 ± 0.04 µg/mL) [232]. In another report, spherical silver nanoparticles with average size of 20.49 nm were prepared by utilizing Duchesnea indica and tested toward E. coli (MIC = 0.53 mg/mL), S. typhi (MIC = 0.01 mg/mL), A. alternata (MIC = 0.51 mg/mL), and M. canis (MIC = 0.53 mg/mL) [233]. Arshad, Hammad, et al reported a simpler, quicker, and ecofriendly approach to prepare silver nanoparticles by utilizing Salvadora persica aqueous root extract and tested them toward S. epidermidis ATCC12228 (MIC = 0.39 µg/mL) and E. coli (MIC = 0.19 µg/mL) [234].…”

Nanotechnology emerged as a scientific innovation in the 21st century. Metallic nanoparticles (metal or metal oxide nanoparticles) have attained remarkable popularity due to their interesting biological, physical, chemical, magnetic, and optical properties. Metal-based nanoparticles can be prepared by utilizing different biological, physical, and chemical methods. The biological method is preferred as it provides a green, simple, facile, ecofriendly, rapid, and cost-effective route for the green synthesis of nanoparticles. Plants have complex phytochemical constituents such as carbohydrates, amino acids, phenolics, flavonoids, terpenoids, and proteins, which can behave as reducing and stabilizing agents. However, the mechanism of green synthesis by using plants is still highly debatable. In this report, we summarized basic principles or mechanisms of green synthesis especially for metal or metal oxide (i.e., ZnO, Au, Ag, and TiO2, Fe, Fe2O3, Cu, CuO, Co) nanoparticles. Finally, we explored the medical applications of plant-based nanoparticles in terms of antibacterial, antifungal, and anticancer activity.

“…Biogenic synthesis includes such as fungi ( Tyagi et al, 2019 ), ( Osorio-Echavarria et al, 2021 ), bacteria ( Saeed et al, 2020 ), algae ( Bhuyar et al, 2020 ) and plants ( Raj et al, 2018 ) for the synthesis of AgNPs and found to be a clean, nontoxic and environmentally acceptable technique ( Kaur and Jaryal, 2018 ), ( Varadavenkatesan et al, 2020 ). Plant part extracts such as root, flower and leaves etc ( Sahayaraj et al, 2020 ; Elangovan et al, 2021 ; Ilahi et al, 2021 ) are more effective than microorganism-mediated procedures because plants and plant extracts are less sensitive to metal toxicity, cell culture is not required and metabolites such as polyphenols, saponins, tannins, alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids and others are widely available. These metabolites have the ability to stabilize and reduce the silver ions for the synthesis of NPs ( Bharathi and Bhuvaneshwari, 2019 ), ( Mosaviniya et al, 2019 ).…”

The biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and their potent application against dye degradation and phytopathogens are attracting many scientists to nanotechnology. An attempt was made to synthesize silver nanoparticles using Plantago ovata leaf extract and test their effectiveness in removing organic dyes and antifungal activity. In the present study, stable AgNPs were synthesized from 0.1 mM AgNO3 and authenticated by observing the color change from yellow to red-brown, which was confirmed with wavelength UV-Vis spectrophotometer detection. The crystalline nature of the particles was characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns. Furthermore, the AgNPs were characterized by high-resolution transmission electron microscope and scanning electron microscope investigations. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Raman spectra were also used to confirm the size and structure of the synthesized AgNPs. The elemental analysis and functional groups responsible for the reduction of AgNPs were analyzed by electron dispersive spectroscopy and fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy Fourier transforms infrared, respectively. A new biological approach was taken by breaking down organic dyes such as methylene blue and congo red. The AgNPs effectively inhibit the fungal growth of Alternaria alternata. This could be a significant achievement in the fight against many dynamic pathogens and reduce dye contamination from waste water.

“…On the other hand, the most sensitive strain was B. cereus , whose value was 0.1 mg/mL for both MIC and MBC. Ilahi et al [ 54 ] reported that MICs of Duchesnea indica extracted with distilled water are 12 and 10 mg/mL for E. coli and S. enteritidis , respectively. MICs in the present study were lower than those reported by Ilahi et al [ 54 ].…”

“…Ilahi et al [ 54 ] reported that MICs of Duchesnea indica extracted with distilled water are 12 and 10 mg/mL for E. coli and S. enteritidis , respectively. MICs in the present study were lower than those reported by Ilahi et al [ 54 ]. These results indicate that the antimicrobial spectrum of natural plant extracts may vary depending on the part of plant used for extraction, solvents, and other experimental conditions.…”

Chitosan (CTS)/gelatin (GEL)/poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-based composite films with different concentrations of Duchesnea indica extract (DIE) (6.25 and 25 mg/mL), an antimicrobial agent, were manufactured using a casting technique. Results indicated that elongation at break decreased as DIE was added at higher concentrations. Composite films showed no significant differences in thickness, tensile strength, and water vapor permeability. Scanning electron microscopy images revealed that DIE was successfully incorporated into film matrices to interact with polymers. The addition of DIE to the film inhibited the growth of S. aureus by up to 4.9 log CFU/mL. The inhibitory effect on S. aureus using DIE-incorporated coating applied to strawberries was greatest at room temperature storage for 24 h only when it was coated twice or more. The maximum inhibition in strawberries was 2.5 log CFU/g when they were coated twice and 3.2 log CFU/g when they were coated three times. The results of this study suggest that DIE could be used as a natural antimicrobial agent, and DIE-integrated CTS/GEL/PVA films or coatings have potential as a food packaging alternative for preventing foodborne pathogen contamination.
