Phytosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using miracle fruit plant (Synsepalum dulcificum) for antimicrobial, catalytic, anticoagulant, and thrombolytic applications

In the present work, we report the phytosynthesis of AgNPs mediated by leaf and seed extracts of Synsepalum dulcificum. The extracts catalyzed the formation of brown colloidal AgNPs, which stabilized in 10 min. The leaf and seed AgNPs yielded surface plasmon resonance at 440 and 438.5 nm, respective...
