Preparation of silver nanopowders by a controlled wet-chemical synthesis

Cytotoxic, Antimitotic, DNA Binding, Photocatalytic, H2O2 Sensing, and Antioxidant Properties of Biofabricated Silver Nanoparticles Using Leaf Extract of Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Oken

“…(Punjabi et al, 2018 ; Arun et al, 2019 ; Guilger-Casagrande and de Lima, 2019 ; de Oca-Vásquez et al, 2020 ). NPs are usually synthesized with distinct physical, chemical, and biological methods, but are inconvenienced by their cost, slow process as well as generation of waste causing environmental pollution and biotic harmfulness (Wang et al, 2016 ; Unni et al, 2017 ; Gahlawat and Choudhury, 2019 ; Hamida et al, 2020 ; Tortella et al, 2020 ). The physical methods utilize costly equipments and produce unstable larger nanoparticles, while hydrazine and sodium borohydride like hazardous materials are used as reducing agents in the chemical approaches (Mohanta et al, 2017 ; Chandraker et al, 2019a ).…”

Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticle using extract of Zea mays (corn flour) and investigation of its cytotoxicity effect and radical scavenging potential

“…In modern years, synthesis of AgNPs drew much attention due to its catalytic [3], optical [4], antibacterial properties [5][6][7] and substrates for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy [8]. Various methods such as physical [9][10][11], chemical [12][13][14] and biological approaches [15][16][17][18] are being used for the manufacture of silver nanoparticles. The physical method uses highly expensive equipments and also produced large size nanoparticles.…”
