ABSTRACTBiologically inspired nanoparticle synthesis is currently a rapid expanding area of research in nanotechnology. Nanoparticle synthesis utilizing thebioresources such as plants and microbes appears to be a viable, low-cost, and eco-friendly approach. Especially mushrooms can be used for largescalesynthesis of silver nanoparticles as mushroom produces many proteins that reduce the silver nitrate during the biosynthesis. Silver nanoparticlescan be characterized using ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) spectroscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electronmicroscopy, energy dispersive X-ray, and transmission electron microscope. Silver nanoparticles possess high antibacterial activity since silver indifferent forms has been extensively used as a medicine for curing diseases and promote wound healing. Silver nanoparticles have high surfacespecific area, which will lead to excellent antimicrobial activity as compared with bulk metallic silver. Further, the silver nanoparticles show anticanceractivity against various cell lines such as human epidermoid larynx carcinoma (HEP-2), colon adenocarcinoma (HCT-116), breast adenocarcinoma(MCF-7), liver carcinoma (Hep-G2), and intestinal adenocarcinoma (Caco2) were well documented. This review intends to present green synthesis ofsilver nanoparticles and their application as antimicrobial and anticancer agents.Keywords: Silver nanoparticles, Bioresources, Mushroom, Antimicrobial activity, Anticancer property.

Silver nanoparticles (SNPs) exhibit tremendous applications in medicine as antimicrobial agent.  The use of different parts of plants for the synthesis of nanoparticles is considered as a green technology as it does not involve any harmful chemicals.  In the present study, we report a rapid biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles from aqueous leaf extract of medicinal plant Allamanda cathartica.  The active phytochemicals present in the plant were responsible for the quick reduction of silver ion to metallic silver nanoparticles. The reduced silver nanoparticles were characterized by using UV-Vis spectrophotometry, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Energy Dispersive Analysis of X-ray (EDAX) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM).  The spherical shaped silver nanoparticles were observed and it was found to 19-40 nm range of size.  These phytosynthesized SNPs were tested for their antimicrobial activity and it analyzed by measuring the inhibitory zone. A. cathartica aqueous leaf extract of SNPs showed highest toxicity to Pseudomonas followed by Klebsiella, Bacillus and E. coli and lowest toxicity towards Proteus. In fungal species, highest inhibition zone was noted against Rhizopus followed by Curvularia, Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus niger and minimum inhibition zone was observed against Fusarium species.  These results suggest a promising potential of Indian plant-based green chemistry for production of SNPs for biomedical and nanotechnology applications.

The present study was planned to characterize and analyze the antimicrobial activity of silver nanoparticles (AgNP) biosynthesized using a Coccinia indica leaf (CIL) ethanolic extract. The present study included the preparation of CIL ethanolic extract using the maceration process, which was further used for AgNP biosynthesis by silver nitrate reduction. Biosynthetic AgNPs were characterized using UV–Visible spectrometry, zeta potential analysis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectrometry. The biogenic AgNP and CIL extracts were further investigated against different bacterial strains for their antimicrobial activity. The surface plasmon resonance (SPR) signal at 425 nm confirmed AgNP formation. The SEM and TEM data revealed the spherical shape of biogenic AgNPs and size in the range of 8 to 48 nm. The EDX results verified the presence of Ag. The AgNPs displayed a zeta potential of −55.46 mV, suggesting mild AgNP stability. Compared to Gram-positive bacteria, the biogenic AgNPs demonstrated high antibacterial potential against Gram-negative bacteria. Based on the results, the current study concluded that AgNPs based on CIL extract have strong antibacterial potential, and it established that AgNP biosynthesis using CIL ethanol extract is an effective process.

A green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was conducted using the stem extract of Piper chaba, which is a plant abundantly growing in South and Southeast Asia. The synthesis was carried out at different reaction conditions, i.e., reaction temperature, concentrations of the extract and silver nitrate, reaction time, and pH. The synthesized AgNPs were characterized by visual observation, ultraviolet–visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive x-ray (EDX), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The characterization results revealed that AgNPs were uniformly dispersed and exhibited a moderate size distribution. They were mostly spherical crystals with face-centered cubic structures and an average size of 19 nm. The FTIR spectroscopy and DLS analysis indicated that the phytochemicals capping the surface of AgNPs stabilize the dispersion through anionic repulsion. The synthesized AgNPs effectively catalyzed the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) and degradation of methylene blue (MB) in the presence of sodium borohydride.

Abstract:An environmentally benign method to synthesize silver nanoparticles (SNPs) using the leaf extract ofBridelia retusawas developed. The UV-Vis absorption spectrum of the synthesized SNPs displayed a surface plasmon peak at 420 nm. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed the irregular shaped nanoparticles, and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) ascertained the presence of metallic silver by showing a strong signal at 3 eV. The crystalline structure of metallic silver was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The mean size of the SNPs was calculated as 16.21 nm. Fourier infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopic studies displayed specific bands for various functional groups and affirmed the function of reduction and stabilization of SNPs. The stability was endorsed by the zeta potential value of −18.1 mV. The results evidenced that this leaf extract-mediated synthesis method is eco-friendly, rapid, and cheap. The catalytic power of the SNPs was investigated for Rhodamine B dye degradation. The SNPs completely degraded Rhodamine B within 9 min; thus, the dye degradation process was very rapid. The pseudo-first order degradation constant was found out to be 0.1323 min−1. This paves the way for the future development of novel nano-catalysts to reduce environmental pollution.

Abstract A simple and eco-friendly method for the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by ultrasound-assisted strategy using Barleria buxifolia leaf extract as a reducing and capping agent was established in this study. The obtained AgNPs were characterized. UV-vis spectrum, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM), Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analyzer (EDX), X-ray diffraction, dynamic light scattering (DLS) analysis showed that the obtained AgNPs were mono dispersed spheres with uniform size of 80 nm. UV-vis spectroscopy, FTIR, and XRD analysis indicated that the surface of the obtained AgNPs was covered with organic molecules in plant extracts. The results of ABTS assays showed that high antioxidant activity was seen in the obtained AgNPs. Green synthesized AgNPs showed potent antibacterial and anti-biofilm activity against tested pathogens. Cytotoxicity assay showed that the obtained AgNPs were significantly cytotoxic to cancer cell line (MCF-7). In addition, the AgNPs synthesized in this paper can also photo catalytically degrade methylene blue dye under visible light. The potent bioactivity exhibited by the green synthesized silver nanoparticles leads towards the multiple use as antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-biofilm, cytotoxic as well as photo catalytic agent.

Aims: Globally Scientists are working to find more efficient antimicrobial drugs to treat microbial infections and kill drug-resistant bacteria. Background: Despite the availability of numerous antimicrobial drugs bacterial infections still poses a serious threat to global health. Due to a constant decline in the effectiveness of antibiotics owing to their repeated exposure as well as shortlasting antimicrobial activity, led to the demand for developing novel therapeutic agents capable of controlling microbial infections. Objective: In this study, we report antimicrobial activity of chemically synthesized silver nanoparticles (cAgNPs) augmented with ampicillin (amp) in order to increase antimicrobial response against Escherichia coli (gram –ve), Staphylococcus aureus (gram +ve) and Streptococcus mutans (gram +ve). Methods: Nanostructure, colloidal stability, morphology and size of cAgNPs before and after functionalization were explored by UV-vis spectroscopy, FT-IR, zeta potential and TEM. The formation and functionalization of cAgNPs was confirmed from UV-vis spectroscopy and FT-IR patterns. From TEM the average sizes of cAgNPs and cAgNP-amp were found to be 13 and 7.8 nm respectively, and change in colloidal stability after augmentation was confirmed from zeta potential values. The antimicrobial efficacies of cAgNP-amp and cAgNPs against E. coli S. aureus and S. mutans were studied by determining minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs), zone of inhibition, assessment of viable and non-viable bacterial cells and quantitative assessment of biofilm. Results & Discussion: Our results revealed cAgNP-amp to be highly bactericidal compared to cAgNPs or amp alone. The nano-toxicity studies indicated cAgNP-amp to be less toxic compared to cAgNPs alone. Results: This study manifested that cAgNPs show synergistic antimicrobial effect when they get functionalized with amp suggesting their application in curing long-term bacterial infections.
