Biosynthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by using the leaf extract of N. arbor-tristis. (a) The color change during AgNPs synthesis (silver nitrate solution: SNS, leaf extract: LE, silver nanoparticles: AgNPs). (b) UV-Vis spectrum shows the surface plasmon resonance reduction by leaf extract at 427 nm due to silver nanoparticles synthesis. (c) FTIR spectrum of AgNPs synthesis. (d) SEM micrograph of silver nanoparticles showing spherical morphology. (e) Particle size distribution histograms of AgNPs.
