Abstract

Nanoparticles (NPs) have emerged as a transformative technology in modern medicine, that offer unique properties which enhance delivery of drug and diagnostic capabilities. Their nanoscale size allows controlled and targeted delivery of therapeutic agents. Therefore, those are beneficial in treating complex diseases such as neurological disorders and cancer, in situations where typical therapeutic strategies are lacking. Present review highlights the synergy between plant-based materials and nanotechnology, emphasizing their eco-friendly synthesis with the help of plant extracts for both reduction and stabilization process. Apart from minimizing environmental consequences this green technique results in biocompatible nanoparticles (NPs) with enhanced stability. Combining nanotechnology with traditional plant-based treatments improve therapeutic potential of plant-derived medicines. Various NPs are being developed to enhance drug delivery. Characterization techniques such as Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR), and Dynamic light scattering (DLS) are crucial for studying the physical and functional attributes of these NPs. However, it is necessary to undertake investigations on improving the process of NPs synthesis and defining their therapeutic role. In short, integration of plant-based NPs in nanomedicine represents a significant step towards sustainable and effective healthcare solution.
