The present review targets the comparative biogenic synthesis and mechanisms of nanoparticles using various plant-parts extracts and various solutions of strong electrolytic metal salts. The metal salts are AgNO3, Zn(OAc)2, Zn(NO3)2, ZnSO4, CuSO4.5H2O, Cu(NO3)2, Cu(OAc)2, CuCl2, HAuCl4.3H2O, Mg(NO3)2, Mg(OAc)2, TiO(OH)2, Fe(NO3)2.6H2O, FeCl3.6H2O, FeCl2.4H2O, Al(NO3)2, BaCl2·2H2O, Bi(NO3)2, PdCl2, H2PtCl6.6H2O, NaHSeO3, Na2SeO3, Ca(NO3)2.4H2O, ZrOCl2.4H2O, Zr(OAc)4, NiCl2, NiSO4.6H2O, Ni(NO3)2, VCl2, Co(NO3)2 6H2O, CoCl2, Hg(OAc)2, Mn(OAc)2, (NH4)6Mo7O24, Sr(NO3)2, SnCl2.2H2O, Na2S2O3.5H2O, K2Cr2O7, Cr(NO)3.9H2O and Pb(NO3)2. These salts are soluble to produce to highly active positive metal ions in deionised water. These ions are effectively nucleated in the plant constituents. The plant acts akin to a huge ‘‘bio-laboratory” comprising of leaves, seeds, steam, root, sprout, fruits, latex, parks, fruits peel, fruits, juices. etc… which are composed of biomolecules and phytoconstituents. These naturally happening biomolecules and phytoconstituents have been recognized to play an energetic role in the formation of nanoparticles with discrete shapes and sizes thus acting as a pouring force for the manipulative of greener, safe and environmentally benign protocols for the synthesis of nanoparticles.
