Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles by Chemical Method and Investigated for Antibacterial Activity

The green synthesis of nanomaterials is becoming much popular as a result of worldwide problems associated with environmental concerns. In the present work, leaf extract of Barbadensis Miller, (commonly known as Aloe vera) was used for bio-reduction of silver ions to silver nanoparticles. Aloe vera extract and AgNO3 solution in different volumes were treated and it resulted in the reduction of Ag+ ions to Ag metal atoms, which further accumulated as Ag nanoparticles. The prepared nanoparticles were characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy, SEM, FT-IR spectroscopy and XRD analysis. The present study established that the shape and size of the silver nanoparticles can be effectively controlled and modulated using green synthesis technique. The scope of the prepared particles for anti-microbial applications were also investigated.
