  • First Online:
Advances in Pharmaceutical Biotechnology

Abstract

Nanotechnology is the field of science which deals with synthesis and applications of nanoparticles. Different approaches and methods are employed for synthesis of nanoparticles. The two approaches used for synthesis of nanoparticles are top-down approach and bottom-up approach. Nanoparticles are synthesized by using chemical, biological, and physical methods. Chemical and physical methods use toxic chemicals, adverse conditions and sophisticated instruments for synthesis of nanoparticles. Compared to chemical and physical method, biological method is cost-effective, does not make use of harmful chemicals, and makes use of normal conditions for the synthesis of nanoparticles. Biological synthesis of nanoparticles makes use of plants, fungi, and bacteria for the synthesis of nanoparticles. This chapter deals with only plant-mediated green synthesis of nanoparticles. Plant-mediated synthesis of nanoparticles can be done by intracellular route, extracellular route, and phytochemical mediated synthesis. Plant-mediated synthesis is employed due to its following advantages such as the use of aqueous solvents, readily availability of plant material, and biocompatibility of extracts obtained from plant species. Various metals such as silver, gold, platinum, pallidum are mainly employed for the synthesis of nanoparticles. The synthesis is nanoparticles that is gaining importance due to its applications in various fields such as medicine, sensing, electronics, wastewater treatment, etc.
