Alternative Green Chemistry Methods of Silver Nanoparticles Synthesis: Review and Comparison

Journal of Bionanoscience, 2017

Green chemistry is a branch of chemistry that deals with natural materials such as plants, fungi, bacteria, algae, and rocks rather than chemical components. Advantages of green chemistry rather than chemical are that no toxic components are released, inexpensive, available anytime, easy to get, and eco-friendly. Metallic nanoparticles have received great attention from chemists, physicists, biologists and engineers who wish to use them for the development of a new generation of nanodevices. One of the important metal nanoparticles is the silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Silver is a nontoxic agent having an antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant properties. AgNPs have been used in many applications such as catalysis, biotechnology, biomedical applications, electronics, and in the treatment of burns and wounds. The green synthesis of AgNPs involves three main steps: the selection of the solvent medium, the selection of environmentally reducing agents, and the selection of non-toxic substances for the stability of AgNPs. In this review, we will discuss some green chemistry methods to synthesize AgNPs via plant extracts and other natural agents, such as fungi, bacteria, and algae. In addition, we will compare between these methods, according to their applications and stabilities.

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.

International Journal of Plant Biology & Research, 2015

Developing an environment friendly process for synthesis of nanoparticles is a significant step in the field of nanotechnology. Nanotechnology involves the tailoring of materials at the atomic level to attain unique properties, which can be suitably manipulated for the desired applications. Among the all metallic nanoparticles silver nanoparticles draw more attention due to its unique physical, chemical and biological properties. Green protocol of synthesizing nanoparticles has emerged as an alternative to overcome the limitation of conventional methods. Plant and microorganisms are majorly applied for green synthesis of metallic nanoparticles. Using plants towards synthesis of nanoparticles are emerging and also beneficial compared to microbes with the presence of broad variability of bio-molecules in plants which can act as capping/stabilizing and reducing agents and so increases the rate of reduction and stabilization of synthesized nanoparticles. Among all organisms plants seem to be the best candidates for biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles and they are suitable for large-scale biosynthesis. Nanoparticles produced by plants are more stable and the rate of synthesis is faster than in the case of microorganisms. This review focuses on the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using various plant sources.
