description | Nanotechnology has gained attention due to their wide applications in various areas such as cancer diagnosis and therapy. Production of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using plant extracts is safer and cost-effective compared to chemical and physical methods. In this study, AgNPs were produced using 1:5, 1:10 and 1:20 ratios of Vernonia cinerea (V. cinerea) aqueous extract and silver nitrate solution. The mixtures were incubated for 24 hour at 40 ˚C water baths. The formation of silver nanoparticles was monitored for colour changes and characterized by UV-Vis
spectroscopy followed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and zeta potential analyses. |
