dc.description.abstract | Silver nanoparticles due to their unique properties, find use in day-to-day applications in human life. The major advantage of using plant extracts for silver nanoparticle synthesis are easily available, safe, and nontoxic. The main mechanism of the process is plant-assisted reduction due to phytochemicals and are quicker than microbes in synthesis. In this present work, we have worked on environment friendly technique on green synthesis of silver nanoparticles from ImM AgNO^ solution through the extract of Leucas aspera which jxtssess both the reducing as well as capping agent. The particle size, Zeta potential and Antimicrobial property showed an average size of 23 nm with stability solution fifty percentage. Further, these green synthesized nanoparticles were found to be highly toxic against different human pathogens which could be an added advantage as an antimicrobial agent in food packaging. | en_US |
