• Green Synthesis of Metallic Nanoparticles via Biological Entities (2015, background): “For instance, fungi secrete large amounts of proteins and enzymes per unit of biomass, which results in larger amounts of nanoparticles being manufactured [175].”
• Nanoparticles for pest control: current status and future perspectives (2017, background): “Microorganisms, such as bacteria, actinomycetes, fungi, yeasts, and viruses, but also plant extracts have been used for the synthesis of metal (silver, gold, platinum, palladium, titanium, and zirconium) NPs (Dubey et al. 2009; Narayanan and Sakthivel 2010).”
• Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles from Aloe vera leaf extract and antifungal activity against Rhizopus sp. and Aspergillus sp. (2015, background): “Green synthesis of silver nanoparticle has some advantages towards the reduction of metal ions and their stability (Narayanan and Sakthivel 2010).”
• Isolation and characterization of a fungus for extracellular synthesis of small selenium nanoparticles (2013, background): “Although the intracellular biosynthesis of Se NPs using different bacteria and their isolation and purification have been recently reported in literature and well described [28-30] but there is no report on the synthesis of Se NPs using cell-free culture supernatant obtained from a fungus strain.”
• Potential of plant as a biological factory to synthesize gold and silver nanoparticles and their applications (2012, background): “…which requires additional processing steps to release the nanoparticles from the biomass, it seems that extracellular synthesis of nanoparticles using plant extract is more commonly studied due to their greater potential in commercial applications (Song et al. 2009; Narayanan and Sakthivel 2010b).”
