Green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles using flower extract of Nyctanthes arbor-tristis and their antifungal activity (2016, background): “They are active against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and also show considerable activity against more resistant bacterial spores (Azam et al., 2011).”
GREEN TEA (CAMELLIA SINENSIS) MEDIATED SYNTHESIS OF ZINC OXIDE (ZNO) NANOPARTICLES AND STUDIES ON THEIR ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITIES Original Article (2014, background): “Green synthesis procedures have several merits such as, simple, inexpensive, good stability of nanoparticles, less time consumption, non-toxic byproducts and large-scale synthesis [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6].”
A review on green synthesis of silver nanoparticles and their applications (2017, methodology): “Ocimum sanctum leaf extract as stabilizing agent and characteristics of particles were studied by using UV–Vis spectrometer, SEM, and XRD. Awwad et al. (2013) studied that spherical Ag-NPs were also synthesized by using carbo leaf extract with an average particle size from 5 to 40 nm and characteriz”
