Modern Nanotechnology

Abstract

Synthesis of nanoparticles via an eco-friendly mode is the need of the hour in the field of nanotechnology. Green synthesis of nanoparticles possesses cost-effective, safe, and sustainable approach for the production of nanoparticles. Biomolecules found in beneficial bio-organism possess excellent properties to act as both reducing and cap** agent to develop stable nanoparticles. The biosynthesis process is further regulated by factors such as temperature, incubation time, and pH. Plants and microbes are examples of biological agents that can create nanoparticles in order to overcome the drawbacks associated with traditional physical and chemical method of synthesis of nanoparticles. This chapter focuses on plant- and bacteria-mediated green synthesis of nanoparticles, and their potential applications in the sector of energy and environmental protection.
