Abstract:
There is an increasing commercial demand for synthesis of various nanoparticles due to their
vast development in various areas such as electronics, catalysis, chemistry and medicine. In the
current period, the development of efficient green chemistry methods for the synthesis of metal
nanoparticles has become a major focus for the researcher. The synthesis and characterization
of nanoparticles using by using plant extracts is the emerging field of nanotechnology which
has extensive new applications in various fields. In the present study, we describe the costeffective
and environmentally friendly technique for green synthesis of silver nanoparticles
from 1mM AgNO3. The reaction mixture turned brownish grey coloured for silver nanoparticles
after 3 hrs of incubation period obtained nanoparticles were confirmed using UV-Visible
Spectrophotometer. The main aim of this paper is to synthesize silver nanoparticles from
aqueous leaf extract of Oroxylum indicum.
