Ecological production of silver nanoparticles using extract from Chrozophora plicata leaves for improved anticorrosion and antibacterial use
The current work generated silver nanoparticles by green synthesis from the extract of Chrozophora Plicata (CP) leaves extracted at room temperature with a pH range between 10 and 12, after years of continuous work in the bottom-up technique and biological Ag nanoparticle manufacturing. Using a range of characterisation techniques, the generated Ag Nps form and phase purity were carefully investigated. According to the phyto chemical activities of Chrozophora Plicata (CP) leaf extract, quercetin, one of the primary flavonoid components, increases the conversion of Ag+ to Ag0. Ag Nps' antibacterial efficacy against S. aureus and E. coli was also assessed. The outcomes show that Ag Nps have strong antibacterial qualities against the E. coli bacteria.
