Green Nanoscience: Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Gold and Silver Nanoparticles.

Green synthesis reduces the production of deleterious products through sustainable and eco-friendly synthesis procedures by using natural resources such as green materials. The present work reports the green synthesis of metal nanoparticles to minimise waste products and implement sustainable processes. Environmental sustainability will increase the healthy environment by reducing hazardous products to the environment. The research community attracts green plants and their products for materials production due to their nontoxic nature to the environment and human health. The current report is new experimentation for nanoparticles by use of green materials with biological reduction method. Silver and gold nanoparticles were synthesized by use of Butea monosperma plant leaves extract. Potential applications of the green derived nanoparticles are known for biological applications and environmental remediation is discussed. The mechanisms of the biological activity of the nanoparticles are also reported. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
