Bio-inspired green manufacturing of plasmonic silver nanoparticles/Degussa using Banana Waste Peduncles: Photocatalytic, antimicrobial, and cytotoxicity evaluation

Plasmonic silver nanoparticle, AgNPs (~14.1 nm) having an absorption peak at 421 nm was fabricated via a biogenic, rapid, and costless technique using Banana Waste Peduncles (BWP) as new disposals instead of plant extracts. According to HPLC analysis, BWP included gallic acid, catechin, chlorogenic...
