description Nanotechnology has become an exciting area of research in diverse fields, such as: healthcare, food, agriculture, cosmetics, paints, lubricants, fuel additives and other fields. This review is a novel effort to update the practioneers about the most current developments in the widespread use of green synthesized nanoparticles in medicine. Biosynthesis is widely preferred among different modes of nanoparticle synthesis since they do not require toxic chemical usage and they are environment-friendly. In the green bioprocess, plant, algal, fungal and cyanobacterial extract solutions have been utilized as nucleation/capping agents to develop effective nanomaterials for advanced medical applications. Several metal salts, such as silver, zinc, titanium and other inorganic salts, were utilized to fabricate innovative nanoparticles for healthcare applications. Irrespective of the type of wound, infection in the wound area is a widespread problem. Micro-organisms, the prime reason for wound complications, are gradually gaining resistance against the commonly used antimicrobial drugs. This necessitates the need to generate nanoparticles with efficient antimicrobial potential to keep the pathogenic microbes under control. These nanoparticles can be topically applied as an ointment and also be used by incorporating them into hydrogels, sponges or electrospun nanofibers. The main aim of this review is to highlight the recent advances in the Ag, ZnO and TiO2 nanoparticles with possible wound healing applications, coupled with the bactericidal ability of a green synthesis process.
