Bipinchandra K. Salunke and Beom Soo Kim
Concise Definition of Subject
Silver is a valuable metal and conversion of silver to nano form changes its physicochemical characteristics. The nano form of silver is an ideal and treasured compound for different fields of science and technology. As a result of diverse range of applications of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), the research in the field of AgNP synthesis is getting increased attention. Physical, chemical, and biological methods can be used to produce AgNPs. However, biological methods for AgNP synthesis are becoming popular due to limitations associated with chemical and physical methods. Plant-mediated AgNP synthesis is more ...
