- Description
- With the advancement of technology, there is a growing demand for new nanoparticles that are viable, eco-friendly, non-toxic, and non-hazardous, as well as having unique chemical and physical properties. Silver nanoparticles are currently promising for antibacterial, antimicrobial, and photocatalytic applications. Because of their toxicity, nanosilver particles are now widely used in various applications, including cosmetics, clothing, sunscreen, medicinal, sensing, antibacterial, antimicrobial, and photocatalytic. The importance of plant extracts in the synthesis of AgNPs is emphasized. The various mechanisms and characterization techniques used in the study of silver nanoparticles will also be covered. This review also discusses the role of green synthesized AgNPs in antimicrobial and photocatalytic applications, which adds to our understanding of improving health, and the environment and preventing contagious diseases. 2022 by the authors.
