description ABSTRACTGreen nanotechnology is an eco-friendly method for the biosynthesis of metallic nanoparticles, which are being used due to their unique features and bio-applications in various fields. World Health Organization (WHO) stated that the use of medicinal plants to treat a variety of disorders, such as diabetes mellitus (DM), cancer, HIV infection, hepatitis, tuberculosis (TB), and malaria is very effective. Green synthesis is a cost-effective, environment- friendly, and safe method. There are a wide variety of native medicinal plants around the world, owing to their unique physical, chemical, and biological characteristics, used for gold and silver nanoparticle (NP) synthesis, and are potent among all metal nanoparticles. However, as an alternative to several traditional techniques to synthesize nanoparticles, green chemistry has arisen. This review covers the green synthesis of AuNPs/AgNPs and its significance as a potent anticancer and antidiabetic agent. All literature surveys will be helpful in terms of further progress as to go from summarizing or concluding data along challenges and future perceptions.
