Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Fruits Extract of Momordica dioica and studied Its Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activity

In the present study, the AgNPs were Biosynthesized by green method using Momordica dioica plant fruit extract. The synthesis of AgNPs from M. dioica fruits has more advantages such as its eco-friendly; high yield and capability for pharmaceutical and other biomedical applications. For the reduction of AgNO 3, fruit extract of M. dioica is used as a reducing agent. The AgNPs were confirmed by biophysical methods such as UV-visible spectroscopy, FTIR, X-ray diffraction analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. Biosynthesized AgNPs showed good antioxidant Activity and also showed good antimicrobial activity against some selected microorganisms. Bioconversion of AgNPs by M. dioica plant extract could be employed as a potential antibacterial source to eliminate pathogenic microorganisms from the agricultural and food preservation industry.
