Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticle Using Banana (Musa) Sap

Article Preview

Abstract:

Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using banana sap as a solvent, reducing agent and capping agent is reported in this work. Banana sap has also been used as a binder to incorporate silver nanoparticles into cotton fabric. UV-Visible spectroscopy was used to monitor the quantitative formation of silver nanoparticles. Silver nanoparticle coated fabric showed high antimicrobial activity against gram negative bacteria such as Pseudomonas aureginosa and Escherichia coli, and gram positive bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus.KeywordsGreen synthesis, Silver nanoparticles, banana sap, antimicrobial activity
