A Mechanistic View of the Light-Induced Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Extracellular Polymeric Substances of <i>Chlamydomonas reinhardtii</i>
In the current study, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) of <i>Chlamydomonas reinhardtii</i> and photon energy biosynthetically converted Ag<sup>+</sup> to silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The reaction mechanism began with the non-photon-dependent adsorption of Ag<sup&g...
