Abstract :
A rising demand for nanoparticles have urged
due to their various applications in Electronics, Chemistry,
Energy and Medicine. Traditionally metallic nanoparticles
are synthesized by wet chemical methods; however these
methods have drawbacks such as use of toxic solvents and
hazardous byproducts. Present investigation deals with a
cost effective and eco-friendly method for green synthesis
of Silver nanoparticles from 0.5 M AgNO3 solution, using
leaf extract of Solanum torvum as a reducing, as well as
capping agent. Synthesized nanoparticles were
characterized using UV-Visible spectroscopy, X-ray
diffraction (XRD) and SEM. Further these biosynthesized
nanoparticles were tested and proven to have remarkable
antimicrobial activity against bacterial strains.
