Aqueous extraction of red seaweed bioactive compounds and synthesis of silver nanoparticles for agriculture applications

In this study, an aqueous extract of Gracilaria crassa and Grateloupia lithophila was used for the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) to control plant disease and support plant growth. The synthesised AgNPs were characterised using a UV–visible spectrophotometer, FTIR, XRD, SEM, EDAX, T...
