Abstract

This research investigates the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using plant extracts as reducing agents. The study focuses on environmentally benign and cost-effective methods to synthesize nanoparticles, assessing their antimicrobial properties and potential applications in medical and packaging industries. Results indicate that plant-derived nanoparticles exhibit significant biocompatibility and efficacy against common pathogens, suggesting a sustainable alternative to conventional synthesis techniques.
