Green synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles using banana peel extract and their antimicrobial activity against representative microorganisms
The present study reports an eco-friendly, cost efficient, rapid and easy method for synthesis of silver nanoparticles using banana peel extract (BPE) as a reducing and capping agent. The different factor affecting silver reduction was investigated. The optimum conditions were silver nitrate (1.75 m...
