Abstract EN
Development of an ecofriendly, reliable, and rapid process for synthesis of nanoparticles using biological system is an important bulge in nanotechnology.
Antioxidant potential and medicinal value of Adiantum philippense L.
fascinated us to utilize it for biosynthesis of gold and silver nanoparticles (AuNPs and AgNPs).
The current paper reports utility of aqueous extract of A.
philippense L.
fronds for the green synthesis of AuNPs and AgNPs.
Effect of various parameters on synthesis of nanoparticles was monitored by UV-Vis spectrometry.
Optimum conditions for AuNPs synthesis were 1 : 1 proportion of original extract at pH 11 and 5 mM tetrachloroauric acid, whereas optimum conditions for AgNPs synthesis were 1 : 1 proportion of original extract at pH 12 and 9 mM silver nitrate.
Characterization of nanoparticles was done by TEM, SAED, XRD, EDS, FTIR, and DLS analyses.
The results revealed that AuNPs and AgNPs were anisotropic.
Monocrystalline AuNPs and polycrystalline AgNPs measured 10 to 18 nm in size.
EDS and XRD analyses confirmed the presence of elemental gold and silver.
FTIR analysis revealed a possible binding of extract to AuNPs through –NH2 group and to AgNPs through C=C group.
These nanoparticles stabilized by a biological capping agent could further be utilized for biomedical applications.
