Green synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticle using natural reducing sugar from cultivated banana peel

Journal of Physics: Conference Series

Banana is a typical fruit in Southeast Asia which has value in addition to being a food source. Agricultural and plantains processing industries generate enormous amount of waste in the form of banana peel. It is renewed that banana peel has several forms of biomass resources exist (such as starch or sugar crops, weeds, and oils plants, etc.) which can utilize for reducing agent in chemical synthesis. Therefore, this research aims to synthesize silver nanoparticles by a green synthesis using an extract derived from cultivated banana peel waste. To explore optional synthesis condition, characterization of synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using UV-visible spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) were investigated. Besides, reducing sugar quantities of banana peel extract (BPE) was determined using DNS standard addition method. The results revealed that green synthesis of silver nanoparticles were accomplished using silver nitrate and BPE as the reductant. The optimized conditions for the AgNPs synthesis was a temperature of 60℃, 1.0 mM AgNO3, and a reactant ratio of 1: 2 (AgNO 3 to BPE). UV-Visible spectra demonstrated absorbance at 400 nm and 510 nm corresponding to AgNPs with the particle size in the range of 20-30 nm and 90-100 nm, respectively. Moreover, FTIR spectra revealed the role of functional group in BPE as a reducing agent of silver ions.

Banana peel extract mediated novel route for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles

Colloids and Surfaces a Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects, 2010

Bio-inspired silver nanoparticles were synthesized with the aid of a novel, non-toxic, eco-friendly biological material namely, banana peel extract (BPE). Boiled, crushed, acetone precipitated, air-dried peel powder was used for reducing silver nitrate. Silver nanoparticles were formed when the reaction conditions were altered with respect to pH, BPE content, concentration of silver nitrate and incubation temperature. The colorless reaction mixtures turned brown and displayed UV-visible spectra characteristic of silver nanoparticles. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) observations revealed the predominance of silver nanosized crystallites after short incubation periods. When the reaction mixtures were incubated for 15 days, some micro-aggregates were also observed. Energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) studies and X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the presence of silver nanoparticles. Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR) indicated the role of different functional groups (carboxyl, amine and hydroxyl) in the synthetic process. These silver nanoparticles displayed antimicrobial activity against fungal as well as bacterial cultures.

In this work, the synthesis of stable silver nanoparticles by the bioreduction method was investigated. Aqueous extracts of the manna of hedysarum plant and the soap-root (Acanthe phylum bracteatum) plant were used as reducing and stabilizing agents, respectively. UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy was used to monitor the quantitative formation of silver nanoparticles. The characteristics of the obtained silver nanoparticles were studied using X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDX), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The EDX spectrum of the solution containing silver nanoparticles confirmed the presence of an elemental silver signal without any peaks of impurities.

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.

Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles from biowaste pomegranate peels

International Journal of Nanoparticles, 2012

We present a simple and eco-friendly biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles using Pomegranate peel extract as the reducing agent. The extract was challenged with AgNO 3 solution for the production of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The reaction process was simple for the formation of highly stable silver nanoparticles at room temperature by using the biowaste of the fruit. The morphology and crystalline phase of the NPs was determined from UV-Vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra and Fourier-Transform IR spectroscopy (FTIR). TEM studies showed that the silver nanoparticles obtained were of sizes 5 ± 1.5 nm. An effort has also been made to understand the possible involved mechanism for the biosynthesis of AgNPs. Presumably biosynthetic products or reduced cofactors play an important role in the reduction of respective salts to nanoparticles.
