Abstract
The antioxidant activity of the endosperm extract of Borassus flabellifer (commonly known as Taal) has been studied against a long lived 2,2-diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical at room temperature. The phytochemicals present in the endosperm extract have been utilized for the synthesis of stable gold nanoparticles at room temperature under very mild conditions. The synthesized gold nanoparticles were characterized by Surface Plasmon Resonance spectroscopy, High resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-Ray diffraction and FTIR studies and a mechanism for the synthesis of stabilized gold nanoparticles has been proposed.
