Abstract
The development of environmentally friendly and cost-effective nanoparticle synthesis methods appears to play a crucial role in bringing phytomedicine and nanotechnology together for biological applications. var. Brassica oleracea var. italica silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were produced by extracting rutin from aqueous extract solution. Rutin is a bioactive substance found in broccoli. In this paper, the potential role of Brassica oleracea var. italica (broccoli) extract in the transformation of silver nitrate into silver nanoparticles is highlighted. These biosynthesized nanoparticles were reported using scanning electron microscopy, EDX, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. It was discovered that broccoli seed extract can convert silver ions into silver nanoparticles within 12 min of reaction time. The reduction of Ag + to Ag0 was evidenced by the transition from dark to light brown in colour. Images from scanning electron microscopy demonstrate the presence of silver nanoparticles between 1and 2 µm in size. In this study, a quick and environmentally friendly biosynthesis of stable silver nanoparticles was noted. Research using the Fourier transform infrared spectrometer showed that proteins and phenols may function as capping and reducing agents. On test microorganisms, these biologically generated silver nanoparticles showed potential antifungal (Candida albicans) capabilities.
