Abstract

The present research work deals with the composition and characterization of argent nanoparticle and bio nanocomposites. Nanoparticles are prepared by three different methods. (a) Physical Method (b) Chemical Method (c) Biological Method. A detailed characterization of nanoparticles was carried out using U.V-Vis spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrum and Zeta Potential. The average size of argent nanoparticles was found (a) 331.5nm (b) 331.7nm (c) 412.3 nm. U.V-VIS spectroscopy confirmed the formation of argent nanoparticles. These nanoparticles have antifungal, antibacterial, and also use in the development of anticancer drug.
