Abstract: Nanoparticles (NP) have been shown to have various useful applications. They are generally synthesized using chemical processes involving hazardous chemicals. Therefore, green synthesis of NPs using natural products can be an environmentally friendly alternative. Plants contain different important phytochemicals that can be used as a potential treatment for various ailments. The green synthesis of silver nanoparticles from the extract of different plant parts has gained a wide range of engrossment among the researchers due to its unique optical and structural property. The aim of this study is green synthesis of silver nanoparticles from the ethanolic leaf extract of Punarnava (Boerhavia diffusa), pomegranate (Punica granatum), Tulsi (Ocimum sanctum) and Moringa (Moringa oleifera) was used for the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) emerges as a costeffective and eco-friendly approach. Characterization of nanoparticles was done using different methods, which include; ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier- transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), dynamic light scattering (DLS). UV–visible spectrum of the silver nanoparticles showed absorption peak at around 420 nm. Scanning electron microscope micrographs showed the formation of well-separated silver nanoparticles of size in the range of 90-111 nm. XRD study showed the particles to be crystalline in nature, with a face- centered cubic (fcc) structure. FT-IR spectrum of the Boerhavia diffusa roots extract showed Several Peaks. The peak in the region of 1456.30 to 3439.19 cm-1. The size and stability were detected using DLS. Hence, this AgNPs might be used as antibiotics and antidiabetic agent in future and can be used in many medicinal and technological applications due to non-toxic, cheap and eco-friendly.
