Proliferation of green chemical nanoscience research has opened up novel fundamental and frontiers in material science and medical research. Integration of green chemistry principles to nano is one of the key issues of nanoscience and technology research. Interdisciplinary nanoscience research involving physicists, chemists, biologists and material engineers are concerned about the need for developing eco-friendly methods to synthesize of nano materials [1, 2]. Among the noble metal nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles has fascinating chemical and physical properties and has important value in the fundamental and application research fields [3, 4]. Traditionally, nanoparticles have been prepared by a number of physical and chemical methods like laser ablation, pyrolysis, lithography, chemical vapor deposition, sol-gel technique and electro deposition techniques, which are slow,
