Abstract
dc.description.abstract
Over the last few years, the green synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) using plant extracts has emerged
as a promising methodology for the fabrication of metallic NPs (especially silver, copper, and gold
NPs), as it involves an easy, fast, low-cost, and environmentally friendly bioprocess. However, many
factors affect the sizes and morphologies of NPs biosynthesized by this method, including the
nature of the plant extract, among others. Therefore, the green synthesis of metal NPs with
defined stability, size, and morphology distribution remains under evaluation. In the present
study, we propose aqueous extracts from the endemic-medicinal plant Budleja globosa (“Matico”)
as an efficient bioproduct for the green synthesis of silver NPs (AgNPs). Experimental results
indicate that room temperature, low concentrations of leaf extracts of B. globosa, and silver
nitrate salt were sufficient to biosynthesize AgNPs with uniform size (16 nm) and shape
distribution (spherical).
