ABSTRACT

Most chemical methods used for the synthesis of nanoparticles are too expensive and also involved with the use of toxic and hazardous chemicals that are responsible for various biological risks. Nevertheless, in the case of biological methods, nanoparticle synthesis using plant extracts is the most adopted method, because it is ecofriendly, the green production of nanoparticles, it can act as a source of several metabolites, it is much safer to handle, and easily available (Ankamwar et al. 2005).
