The green synthesis of metallic nanoparticles is the simplest, affordable and eco-friendly approach, which attracted researchers because of their immense applications. The plant-mediated synthesis of nanoparticles plays an important role in the field of nanobiotechnology as they devoid of harmful chemicals. Plenty of reports were available on synthesis of silver nanoparticles using the vegetative parts of plant especially foliar/leaf parts but reports on floral/flower parts utilized for silver nanoparticles synthesis were limited. Although flowers were found as potential source of many important phytochemicals which can be used for treatments of many diseases and Butea monosperma Lam. Flowers were utilized for curing several diseases so, here its extract were used for synthesis of silver nanoparticles by using it as capping and stabilizing agent. The present study, deals with synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from Butea monosperma Lam. Flower extracts through greener approach and then synthesized AgNPs were characterized using UV- visible spectrometry, X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) which confirms its synthesis from silver metal. Further, the anti-bacterial properties of the synthesized silver nanoparticles were studied, and the results revealed that the flower mediated silver nanoparticles had showed strong anti-bacterial activity against Pseudomonas sp., Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus.

The synthesis of metallic nanoparticles using plant extracts has attracted much attention. In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized using the Ginkgo biloba plant-leaf extract and their antibacterial and larvicidal activities were investigated. AgNPs were characterized using UV-visible, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy and field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) analysis. The UV-visible spectral analysis showed a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) peak at 430 nm, the FESEM analysis revealed size of AgNPs between 25–45 nm and the XRD data confirmed the formation of the AgNPs using G. biloba-mediated green synthesis. AgNPs showed the highest antibacterial activities against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtills, Enterobacter aerogens, Salmonella paratyphi and Escherichia coli. Also, the AgNPs exerted a significant larvicidal effect on the Culex mosquito larvae.

The present investigation demonstrates the formation of silver nanoparticles by the reduction of the aqueous silver metal ions during exposure to the Lagenaria siceraria leaf extract. The synthesized AgNPs have characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) techniques. AgNPs formation has screened by UV-visible spectroscopy through colour conversion due to surface plasma resonance band at 427 nm. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed that the resulting AgNPs are highly crystalline and the structure is face centered cubic (fcc). FT-IR spectrum indicates the presence of different functional groups present in the biomolecules capping the nanoparticles. Further, inhibitory activity of AgNPs and leaf extract were tested against human pathogens like gram-pastive (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis), gram-negative (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa). The results indicated that the AgNPs showed moderate inhibitory actions against human pathogens than Lagenaria siceraria leaf extract, demonstrating its antimicrobial value against pathogenic diseases

Studies of green synthesis of nanoparticles mediated by plants extract is extensively explored and studied in recent time due to eco-friendliness, cost-effectiveness, and use a minimum amount of toxic chemicals in the process of inorganic material synthesis. In this study, the immobilization of silver nanoparticles on the surface of titanium dioxide (TiO2) was carried out using Uncaria gambier Roxb. leaf extract as a silver ion (Ag+) reducing agent. The synthesized Ag/TiO2 nanocomposite was characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy (DRS). The formation of silver nanoparticles was confirmed through UV-Vis spectroscopic analysis, which showed a silver surface plasmon resonance (SPR) band at 426 nm. The X-ray diffraction pattern shows that Ag can inhibit the transition of the anatase into rutile phase. The presence of Ag particles in TiO2 can increase the absorption ability from an initial wavelength of 407 nm to 438 nm. Based on the results of Rhodamin B degradation, it can be seen that Ag/TiO2 has a higher photocatalytic activity than bare TiO2 with 99% percent degradation at 120 minutes of irradiation time.

Due to the pressing problems of today’s world, regarding both the finding of new, environmentally friendly materials which have the potential to replace classic ones, and the need to limit the accelerated spread of bacteria in hospitals, offices and other types of spaces, many researchers have chosen to develop their work in this field. Thus, biopolymeric materials have evolved so much that they are gradually becoming able to remove fossil-based plastics from major industries, which are harmful to the environment and implicitly to human health. The biopolymer employed in the present study, Arboblend V2 Nature with silver nanoparticle content (AgNP) meets both aspects mentioned above. The main purpose of the paper is to replace several parts and products in operation which exhibit antibacterial action, preventing the colonization and proliferation of bacteria (Streptococcus pyogenes and Staphylococcus aureus, by using the submerged cultivation method), but also the possibility of degradation in different environments. The biopolymer characterization followed the thermal behavior of the samples, their structure and morphology through specific analyses, such as TGA (thermogravimetric analysis), DSC (differential scanning calorimetry), SEM (scanning electron microscopy) and XRD (X-ray diffraction). The obtained results offer the possibility of use of said biocomposite material in the medical field because of its antibacterial characteristics that have proved to be positive, and, therefore, suitable for such applications. The thermal degradation and the structure of the material highlighted the possibility of employing it in good conditions at temperatures up to 200 °C. Two types of samples were used for thermal analysis: first, in the form of granules coated with silver nanoparticles, and second, test specimen cut from the sample obtained by injection molding from the coated granules with silver nanoparticles.

The present work concerns on the synthesis of silver nanoparticles at 25 ºC using raw fruits extract of Bakul (Mimusops elengi) tree via chemical reduction route development of poly(vinyl alcohol) PVA-silver polymer nanocomposite films. The nanocomposite films were subjected to characterization by UV-visible, FTIR, X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and thermal studies. The UV-visible spectrum shows a characteristic broad absorption band observed near 465 nm suggesting presence of silver nanoparticles in polymer nanocomposites (PNCs) film. The vibrational band shift of –OH group of poly(vinyl alcohol) in the presence of nanoparticle designated the chemical interaction between –OH group of poly(vinyl alcohol) and silver nanoparticles. The FESEM study confirmed that PVA is not only acted as a capping agent, but also a cross-linking agent. X-ray diffraction study shows that the existence of AgNPs in the poly nanocomposite film and nanoaparticles are crystalline in nature. Thermal studies suggest that the enhanced thermal stability is because of the good packing of the polar crystallites in β-PVA composites as compared to the non-polar α-phase of neat poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA).
