Nowadays scientists are expanding interest in inorganic nanoparticles i.e. of noble metal nanoparticles (Gold and silver) as they provide superior material properties with functional versatility. Especially, the medical properties of gold have been known for over 2,000 years. Since the nineteenth century, goldbased compounds have been used in many antimicrobial applications. An alternate and feasible method to synthesize gold nanoparticles is to employ biological methods using many biological sources especially plants. This review focuses on the green synthesis of biocompatible gold nanoparticles using various plant sources. Furthermore, this green synthesis approach is a rapid and better alternative to chemical synthesis and also most effective for large scale synthesis of gold nanoparticles.Read More
