Abstract EN
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are fabricated using Sacha inchi (SI) or (Plukenetia volubilis L.) leaf extract as non-toxic reducing agent with particle size ranging from 4 to 25 nm.
Optical, structural and morphological properties of the synthesized nanoparticles have been characterized by using Visual, UV–Vis spectrophotometer, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) analysis.
Selected area electron diffraction (SAED) confirmed the formation of metallic Ag.
Infrared spectrum measurement was carried out to hypothesize the possible phytochemicals responsible for stabilization and capping of the AgNPs.
It shows the significant antioxidant efficacy in comparison with SI leaf extracts against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl.
From the results obtained it is suggested that green AgNPs could be used effectively in future engineering and medical concerns.
