Synthesis of metal nanoparticles using Heliconia rostrata leaf extract and their antiproliferative and apoptotic property

The silver and gold nanoparticles were biosynthesized using leaves of a pharmacologically important plant Heliconia rostrata. A rapid, eco-friendly, cost-effective and one-step process of synthesis has been achieved, thus produced nanoparticles were characterized by UV–visible, FT-IR, XRD and TEM sp...
