Abstract
Abstract Silver nanoparticle (AgNP) is one of attractive nanomaterials for biomedical applications, such as electroactive scaffold, antimicrobial treatment, anticancer therapy, and wound healing. Previously, AgNP was successfully synthesized using extract of Cilembu sweet potato (CSP) only if the extract was baked in oven at 120 °C for 60 minutes, which is an energy-intensive and time-consuming process. In this study, AgNPs was fabricated using unbaked extract of CSP with employing fast microwave heating instead of baking process. Microwave irradiation time were varied (0, 30, 60 and 90 seconds) to know the influence of microwave irradiation time on particles size and morphology of the obtained AgNPs. The obtained samples were evaluated using UV-Visible spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy to know the surface plasmon resonance characteristic, average particles size and morphologies of the obtained AgNPs respectively.
