Single Pot Green Synthesis, Characterization And Antimicrobial Studies Of Silver Nanoparticles Using Tropical Medicinal Plant Extracts

Research on the single pot green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was done using aqueous medicinal plant extract of Tithonia diversifolia and Acalypha wilkesiana. Characterization was carried out by spectroscopic techniques. Experimental optimization studies and the antimicrobial activity of the nanoparticles were investigated. Bottom-up approach was applied for the synthesis of both Tithonia diversifolia silver nanoparticles (TD-AgNPs) and Acalypha wilkesia silver nanoparticles (AW-...
