Green Nanoparticles: The Future of Nanobiotechnology

Abstract

Fungi are multicellular, eukaryotic life forms that lack chlorophyll and play a major role in nutrient and carbon cycling in the biosphere as pathogens, mutualistic symbionts, and opportunistic heterotrophs. Fungi are also considered as attractive agents for the biosynthesis of nanoparticles, both intracellularly as well as extracellularly. Myconanotechnology is an upcoming science and technology innovation where fungi are explored for the green synthesis of nanomaterials. As compared to bacteria, the use of fungus is more advantageous since they provide good biomass and easy recovery and have fewer requirements of additional steps to extract the filtrate. Compared to other prokaryotic entities and even plants, the fungal mycelium has proven to be quite sturdy in withstanding adverse conditions during culturing in bioreactors or other chambers during the nanofabrication process. The chapter discusses the role of filamentous fungi, yeast, mushrooms, and lichens in the green synthesis of nanoparticles.
