Synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles via green route

Korean Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2016

The development of competent green chemistry methods for synthesis of metal nanoparticles has become a main focus of researchers. In this study we report the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNps) by reduction of silver nitrate, using leaf broth of Azadirakta indica (Neem). The plant leaf broth simultaneously acts as reducing agent as well as capping agent at 30 o C. The effect of different concentration of silver ions, percentage of leaf broth and temperature on morphology of dispersed silver nanoparticles was studied. The formation of silver nanoparticles in dispersion was monitored through the analysis of absorbance spectra by UV-Visible spectrophotometer at different stages during the process of synthesis. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis revealed that silver nanoparticles were pure and monodispersed and size was ranging from 9-56 nm. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis indicates prominent bands of absorbance, which are responsible for reducing of Ag + ions and stabilization of obtained silver nanoparticles. Results confirmed this protocol as simple, rapid, cost effective, eco-friendly and alternative conventional physical/chemical methods.

Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Alagaw Leaf Extract

Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Alagaw (Premna odorata) Leaf Extract, 2019

Abstract. There is a worldwide interest in silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) synthesize by various chemical reactions for use in applications. Silver nanoparticles have gained significant interest due to their unique optical, antimicrobial, electrical, physical properties and their possible application. However, it is necessary to develop environmental friendly methods for their syntheses. To avoid chemically toxicity, biosynthesis of metal silver nanoparticles is proposed as a cost-effective and environmental friendly alternative. This study aimed to find out whether Alagaw plant can potentially act as a reducing agent for the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles and whether the concentration of the leaf extract can affect the absorbance spectrum, size and shape of the synthesized silver nanoparticles. The synthesized silver nanoparticles were characterized using the UV-vis spectroscopy for its absorbance spectrum and Transmission Electron Microscope Analysis for its morphology and size. The experimental method of research was used using three treatments and replicates of the different concentrations of Alagaw leaf extract: Treatment A (0.2 g/mL), Treatment B (0.4 g/mL) and Treatment C (0.6 g/mL) with 10 minutes and 60 minutes interval of observation under UV-vis spectrophotometer. Based on the findings of the study, Alagaw plant can potentially act as a good reducing agent for the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles. The results recorded from UV-vis spectrophotometer support the biosynthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles that as the concentration of the leaf extract increases it significantly affect the wavelength peaks and absorbance peaks of the synthesized silver nanoparticles. Using the high-resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy, the size of silver nanoparticles measured 50 nm – 100 nm having near-spherical in shape.

A review on green synthesis of silver nanoparticle through plant extract and its medicinal applications

Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research), 2020

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are gaining attention because of its wide application in medical science as antimicrobial and antibacterial properties. A conventional method for synthesis of AgNPs consumes hazardous chemicals and during production of NPs harmful by-products may also form. Proposed review suggests "greener technology" for synthesis of silver nanoparticles with the help of easily available plants. Aqueous extract of leaf or roots of Impatiens balsamina, Lantana camara, Eriobotrya japonica, Berberis vulgaris, Azadirachta indica, Psidium guajava, Moringa oleifera and Catharanthus roseus and other plant extracts are used as reducing agents to convert Ag + into Ag 0. Light or faint color of plant extract after addition of AgNO 3 turns to brown or deep brown in color, indicates the formation of AgNPs. Fourier Transform Infra Red Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Tunneling Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Dynamic Light Scattering Spectroscopy (DLSS) are techniques employed for characterization and morphological analysis of synthesized silver nanoparticles. Antibacterial, antifungal and antiparacitic applications of synthesized AgNPs have been also discussed. It is concluded that AgNPs synthesized by green way has great potency towards both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Moreover, green synthesis of silver nanoparticles is a nonhazardous, eco-friendly, economic and safe technique and will envisaged better option for synthesis of AgNPs.
