Abstract
Biosynthesized nanoparticles are receiving attention because of naturally existing secondary metabolites from plants that support green synthesis and their biological applications. Hence, the Objective of this paper as to biosynthesize and characterize silver nano-composites of Enantia chlorantha extracts using appropriate standard techniques. The results of the FTIR research revealed significant heterogeneity in chemical shifts among the functional groups, indicating changes in chemical surroundings. Furthermore, the GC-MS analysis showed that the extract and Ec-AgNPs had different numbers of compound peaks: the extract had 28 peaks, while Ec-AgNPs had 32 peaks. Ec-AgNPs showed more antibacterial activity than the extract, although having equal phytochemical contents, suggesting their potential for medicinal uses. The importance of using plant extracts in green synthesis techniques to produce nanoparticles and their potential biological uses is highlighted by this study.
