Abstract

This study reports an eco-friendly, cost efficient, rapid and easy method for synthesis ofpalladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) using Rosa damascena as a reducing and capping agent. The synthesized PdNPs were characterized through UV-Vis Spectrophotometer, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). UV studies confirmed the presence of PdNPs by their characteristic SPR peak at 364 nm. Synthesized PdNPs were spherical and polydisperse in shape where size of nanoparticles was ∼ 20 nm. These green synthesized PdNPs exhibited significant activity against both antibacterial as well as antifungal species.
