Title: Mango peel extract mediated novel route for synthesis of silver nanoparticles and antibacterial application of silver nanoparticles loaded onto non-woven fabrics
Abstract: Silver nanoparticles were successfully synthesized from aqueous silver nitrate through a simple green route using the extract of Mango peel as a reducing as well as capping agent. The possible biochemical mechanism leading to the formation of silver nanoparticles was studied using FTIR. The various operational parameters were evaluated for biosynthesis process. The results obtained from UV–vis spectrum, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Transmission electron microscope (TEM) revealed that the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles are in the size range of 7–27 nm and is crystallized in face centered cubic symmetry. Further, the antibacterial application of these biologically synthesized silver nanoparticles loaded onto non-woven fabrics has also been discussed. The results show that non-woven fabrics loaded with biosynthesis silver nanoparticles displayed excellent antibacterial activity.
