Abstract

Metallic nanoparticles are traditionally synthesized by wet chemical techniques, in which the chemicals used are quite often toxic and flammable. Ripe carica papaya peel is found to be a suitable source for green synthesis of silver nanoparticles. In the present work, a cost effective and environmental friendly technique for the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles from 1
