Green route synthesis of antimicrobial nanoparticles using sewage alga bloom

Abstract

Nanoparticles have a large surface area for their size and interact effectively with other particles. AgNPs may be created chemically, physically, or biologically. Biological techniques are considered the safest and cleanest since they use no toxic chemicals. Biological synthesis involves plant extracts, bacteria, fungus, algae, and other organisms. The algal production of AgNPs is of major interest. The abundance of algae and the ease with which it can be grown in a lab are two of the many reasons why it has become so popular as a nanoparticle production source. In this study, algae were employed as nanoparticles and antibacterial inhibitors against microbes.
