Phytofabrication of silver nano particles using <em>Ocimum sanctum </em>leaf extract and their antibacterial and anticancer activity through oxidative damage

Abstract

The silver nanoparticles have found prominence in different fields such as medicine, catalysis, nanoelectronics, textile field, pollution and water treatment due to their unique attributes. Applications of silver nanoparticles are increasing rapidly in the medical purpose including drug delivery, treatment, diagnosis, medical device coating. Various chemical and physical methods are use to synthesize the silver nanoparticles (AgNP) conventionally. But these synthesis processes are expensive and also involves side effects. To solve these savior problems by modification in synthesis process for safer and more efficiency, Green Nanotechnology comes to play a very crucial role for synthesis of
