Abstract

The present work presented a synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using the aqueous extract of waste banana stem (WBS), Musa paradisiaca Linn. The reduction and formation of MNPs have been characterized by several analysis techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transmission infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The techniques showed that average particle size of WBS-AgNPs and WBS-AuNPs in crystalline nature was in ranges of 7–13 nm and 11–14 nm, respectively. The synthesized nanoparticles were used to evaluate antibacterial activity and catalysis. The WBS-AgNPs showed strong antibacterial activity against B. subtilis and E. coli. The largest zone of inhibition against B. subtilis (14.2 mm) and E. coli (9.3 mm) was found at concentrations of 4.0 ppm and 2.0 ppm, respectively. The excellent catalytic application of both the nanoparticles for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol was confirmed via study on their kinetics. The normalized kinetic constants (knor) of WBS-AgNPs and WBS-AuNPs were found to be 1.72 × 10–3 s−1 mg−1 and 2.45 × 10–3 s−1 mg−1, respectively.
