Abstract
Recently, interest in plant-mediated synthesis of the silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) is growing among researchers and till now the potential of different plants is still further explored to synthesize nanoparticles. Conventionally, AgNPs are synthesized using chemical and physical methods. However, these methods involve use of toxic and hazardous chemicals which are harmful to health and environment. Therefore, plant-mediated synthesis has been used as environmental friendly alternative to overcome the limitation of conventional methods. The bioactive compounds in plant acts as natural reducing and stabilizing agents which help to increase the rate of synthesis and stabilization of synthesized nanoparticles. Besides, the nanoparticles synthesized using plants are reported to be more stable and the rate of synthesis is much faster compared to other methods. This review focuses on the biosynthesis of AgNPs using plant as natural source plant and the effect of reaction conditions are summarised and discussed.
