In vitro antibacterial, antioxidant and toxicity profile of silver nanoparticles green-synthesized and characterized from aqueous extract of a spice blend formulation

Here we report the synthesis, characterization and biological properties of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using the extract from a spice blend. AgNPs were prepared using 0.1 mmol/L AgNO3 solution and aqueous extract from a spice blend of garlic, ginger and cayenne pepper. The nanoparticles were chara...
