Green Synthesis and Characterization of Iron Nanoparticles from Holy Basil Leaves and Mint Leaves

In this study, Iron nanoparticles (FeNPs) were synthesized by green chemical method. A reducing and stabilizing agent from plant were used instead of toxic chemical reagent. It was observed that FeNPs was obtained at room temperature (25-35 °C) using bioreducing agent without voltammetric method. The optimum condition for FeNPs synthesis was studied. The nanoparticles have been preliminary characterized by UV-vis spectrophotometry.
