Characterization and investigation of biological catalytic antioxidant activities of Silver nanoparticles synthesized by using mulberry leaf extract

Until few decades ago no one would had imagined that a technology is around the corner that would definitely show its influence in every sphere of life. That technology is called nanotechnology. Nanotechnology has adopted different methods for the production of materials at Nano-scale. Among the methods green synthetic approach is most preferred because of eco-friendliness, biocompatibility and cost-effectiveness. In the present work we have synthesized silver nanoparticles through green method by using Mulberry leaves. The synthesized silver nanoparticle were subjected to characterization by UV-visible spectrophotometry, Dynamic light scattering , Scanning Electron Microscopy, Fourier transformer-infrared, X-ray Diffraction. The nanoparticles were further studied for their antimicrobial, anti-diabetic, antioxidant, catalytic activities.
