“…According to Gondwal et al [74], the presence of phenolic content in creating nanostructured materials such as apigenin, emodin, aloe-emodin, rhein, and vitexin was found for Cassia occidentalis phytochemical analysis. The FTIR and UV result revealed that these physicochemical properties were the capping and reducing agents associated with AgNP synthesis while the sharp peak at 1652 cm -1 corresponded to amide I arising in accordance to carbonyl l stretch in proteins indicating predominant surface capping species mainly responsible for stabilization [75].…”

“…Salmonella typhi, Enterococcus, Escherichia coli, and Klebsiella pneumoniae, which are clinically significant pathogens, were all effectively combated by AgNPs synthesized from C. auriculata extract. Shaik et al [75] used the disc diffusion method to examine the AgNPs made from C. tora root extract and their antibacterial effectiveness against pathogens such as Pseudomonas, E. coli, S. typhi, and Staphylococcus aureus. Pseudomonas and Staph.…”

Plant-based biogenic nanoparticle synthesis has appeared as a feasible alternative to conventional approaches to chemical synthesis. As a result, several environmentally benign methods for the quick production of silver nanoparticles have been published in recent years. The methods employ aqueous extracts of plant components like leaves, bark, and roots. In the present study, silver nanoparticles were synthesized from an aqueous leaf extract of S. auriculata. UV-vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive x-ray analysis (EDAX) were employed to validate the synthesized nanoparticles. The UV analysis showed a peak range between 390-420 nm. FTIR showed the functional groups present in the silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Moreover, the synthesized AgNPs were tested for their antimicrobial activity against both gram-negative and gram-positive bacterial strains. The antioxidant properties were studied with DPPH, hydrogen peroxide, and nitric oxide scavenging activity assays, and a cytotoxic assay was conducted against the Huh-7 cell line by a MTT study. The results showed that the synthesized silver nanoparticles possessed strong antibacterial, antioxidant, and cytotoxic activities against the Huh-7 cell line, indicating that the silver nanoparticles might be used in the pharmaceutical industry and for novel biological applications.
