Momordica charantia stem extract mediated biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles: Optical and antimicrobial efficacy
In this study, potential of aqueous stem extract of Momordica charantia for phytosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) was evaluated using reduction method. The locally sourced biodiversity was extracted in water and methanol by cold extraction, after which it was screened for the presence of phytochemicals. Optical measurement was carried out with Uv-visible spectrophotometer, evidence of...
