Anchoring Silver Nanoparticles by Papaya Fruit Extract: An Efficient, Economic and Environment-Friendly Approach
摘要
Nanoparticles (NPs) have become essential in the medical business because to their high surface-to-volume ratio. We present a low-cost and environmentally friendly strategy for producing silver nanoparticles from solutions with varying AgNO3 concentrations using papaya fruit extract as a capping and reducing agent. Nanoparticles were examined using FTIR, SEM, and UV–V is absorption spectroscopy. The SEM investigation revealed a cubic structure with an average particle size of 15 nm. Synthesized NPs, particularly Ag NPs from papaya fruits, were very effective in combating pathogens.
