Biosynthesized unmodified silver nanoparticles: A colorimetric optical sensor for detection of Hg2+ ions in aqueous solution

Under the catalysis of microwave radiation, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized in situ by reducing silver ions (AgNO3) using the phenolic hydroxyl groups of the tyrosine domain in silk sericin. The dispersion synthesized nano-biocomposite was characterized using different analytical instr...
