An overview: Biosynthesized nanoparticles with their potential applications-Juniper publishers
Global Journal of Nanomedicine-Juniper publishers Introduction Nanotechnology "Nano" means very small or dwarf [ 1 ].Taniguchi coined the term "Nanotechnology" which implies to the modification, reduction and fabrication of materials at nano scale with distinctive properties such as good strength, cost effective, lighter, eco friendly, definite and specific etc [ 2 , 3 ]. Even though nanotechnology is at its early stages, but is growing fast, opening numerous prospects for the scientific minds to use this enhanced technology for human welfare [ 4 - 6 ]. Nanoparticles Nanoparticles are nano-sized objects whose size is measured in nanometers (nm) ranging from 0.1nm-100nm [ 7 ] exhibiting distinct morphological characteristics which is quite different from their bulk form. Biosynthetic methods for nanoparticles synthesis Although atomizer technologies, photochemical reduction, laser ablation, ultrasonic fields,lithography,ultraviolet irradiation techniques have been co...
