Biosynthesis of Silver (Ag) Nanoparticles using Plant Derivatives of Delonix elata

Nanoparticles are being viewed as fundamental building blocks of nanotechnology. The development of new chemical or physical methods, the concern for environmental contaminations are also heightened as the chemical procedures involved in the synthesis of nanoparticles generate a large amount of hazardous byproducts. Thus, there is a need for green chemistry that includes a clean, non toxic and environment friendly method of nanoparticles synthesis. As a result, researchers in the field of nanoparticles synthesis and assembly have turned to biological system of inspiration. One of them is the synthesis of nanoparticles using plant leaf extracts eliminating the elaborate process of marinating the microbial culture and often found to be kinetically favourable than other bioprocesses. The present study deals with the synthesis of silver nanoparticles using leaf extract of Delonix elata. The synthesized silver nanoparticles were predominately spherical in shape, polydispersed and ranged in size from 20-60 nm. K.
