[ 1 ] - Microwave Aided Synthesis of Silver and Gold Nanoparticles and their Antioxidant, Antimicrobial and Catalytic Potentials

Here we reported the extremely simple one-pot synthesis of silver and gold nanoparticles in a rapid manner. Aqueous leaf extract of the most admired energy plant Jatropha curcas is used as reducing agent here. An alternate and safe energy source, house-hold microwave oven constituted the reaction chamber. Silver and gold nanoparticles were characterized by UV-visible, FT-IR, Powder XRD techniqu...
