Abstract
Green nanotechnology is an eco-friendly method for the biosynthesis of metallic nanoparticles, which are being used due to their unique features and bio-applications in various fields. World Health Organization (WHO) stated that the use of medicinal plants to treat a variety of disorders, such as diabetes mellitus (DM), cancer, HIV infection, hepatitis, tuberculosis (TB), and malaria is very effective. Green synthesis is a cost-effective, environment- friendly, and safe method. There are a wide variety of native medicinal plants around the world, owing to their unique physical, chemical, and biological characteristics, used for gold and silver nanoparticle (NP) synthesis, and are potent among all metal nanoparticles. However, as an alternative to several traditional techniques to synthesize nanoparticles, green chemistry has arisen. This review covers the green synthesis of AuNPs/AgNPs and its significance as a potent anticancer and antidiabetic agent. All literature surveys will be helpful in terms of further progress as to go from summarizing or concluding data along challenges and future perceptions.
期刊介绍:
Green Chemistry Letters and Reviews is an Open Access, peer-reviewed journal focused on rapid publication of innovative new syntheses and procedures that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous materials. Reviews of state-of-the-art green chemistry technologies are also included within the journal''s scope.
Green Chemistry Letters and Reviews is divided into three overlapping topic areas: research, education, and industrial implementation. The journal publishes both letters, which concisely communicate the most time-sensitive results, and reviews, which aid researchers in understanding the state of science on important green chemistry topics. Submissions are encouraged which apply the 12 principles of green chemistry to:
-Green Chemistry Education-
Synthetic Reaction Pathways-
Research and Process Analytical Techniques-
Separation and Purification Technologies-
Renewable Feedstocks-
Degradable Products
