Abstract

Green synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles using Triumfetta Rotundifolia plant extract and its antibacterial activities

Author(s): P. Ananthi

Development of reliable and eco-friendly green methods for the production of metallic nanoparticles have many advantages in the field of nano-technology. The aim of the present work, describes a cost effective and environment safe technique for green synthesis of silver nanoparticles from silver nitrate solution using the plant extract as reducing agent. The synthesized silver nanoparticles have been characterized by UV-Vis spectra, FTIR, XRD, HRSEM analysis. The absorption maxima were scanned by UV-Vis spectroscopy. From FTIR spectra, the functional group responsible for silver reduction and capping for efficient stabilization of silver nanoparticles. The SEM analysis shows the synthesized nanoparticles are rod in shape. Further these biologically synthesized nanoparticles exhibit a tremendous anti-bacterial activity. Hence, the plant based route could be considered as fast and easy bio process of nanoparticles production.
