Green Synthesis of Habenaria edgeworthii (Vrddhi) Fruit Extract Conjugated Gold and Silver nanoparticles

Abstract

The antioxidant activity of the fruit extract of Habenaria edgeworthii (commonly known as Vrddhi) has been studied against a long lived 2,2-diphenyl-1 picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical at room temperature. Green syntheses of Vrddhi fruit extract conjugated gold and silver nanoparticles at room temperature have been reported.
