Abstract

In the last decade, the synthesis of nanoparticles is one of the most concerned fields in research due to their high applicability in various segments of science and technology, ranging from material science to biotechnology. The environmentalists have grown interests in the preparation of nanoparticles from the point of view of biological and environmental safety. As the physicochemical production of nanoparticles requires an extreme environments and toxic chemicals in a large quantity, green methods of nanoparticle synthesis employing biological sources are in vogue. Green fabrications of metallic nanoparticles are growing rapidly due to their eco-friendly nature and low cost. In the past decade, the field of nanobiotechnology has been employed rigorously for biosynthesis of metallic nanoparticles. Due to their spectacular biophysical properties and enrichment in biocompatibility, the metallic nanoparticles have significant impact on the food processing, biomedical, environmental, agricultural, and industrial areas. Due to availability of various biologically active compounds such as phenolic acids, saponins, tannins, terpenoids, flavonoids, and alkaloids, plants have promising medicinal significance. Medicinal plant extracts were widely utilized for green synthesis of metallic nanoparticles as stabilizing agents. In order to synthesize biomolecule-encapsulated metallic nanoparticles, metallic ions are reduced by phytochemicals present in plant extracts. The growth of multiple drug-resistant bacteria may be inhibited by biogenic metallic nanoparticles. The present chapter provides information on highly stable, biocompatible, environment friendly, and cost-effective approach for metallic nanoparticles synthesis using diverse medicinal plants and their applications as a powerful nanomedicine against multidrug-resistant pathogens.
