Abstract

Nature has a massive range of diverse species of flora. The phytochemical content of each plant may vary due to the diverse climate and different geographical areas. Several plants have been outlined for their reducing properties and highly exploited for the green synthesis of metal nanoparticles. Moreover, phytochemicals present in plant parts (leaf, root, flower, fruit, etc.) act as both reducing and capping agents for the production of nanoparticles. Plant-mediated nanoparticles have gained so much attention in the present era for its green and rational approach and developed as a green substitute to conventional synthesis approaches. This critical review encloses literature, phytosynthesis methods, and factors affecting the synthesis of silver nanoparticles. Also, the main characterization techniques especially, spectroscopic techniques are epigrammatically summarized and discussed here.
