Antimicrobial, antioxidant and antitumor activities of silver nanoparticles synthesized by Allium cepa extract: A green approach
An economic and efficient method for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was performed using onion (Allium cepa) extract as reducing and capping agent. UV–vis spectroscopy confirmed the formation of silver nanoparticles by observing the typical surface plasmon resonance peak at 420 nm. Tra...
