Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles byMulberry LeavesExtract

Utilizing the reduced property of mulberry leaves extract and silver nitrate, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized at room temperature. Silver nanoparticles were characterized using UV-visible absorption spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) andX-ray diffraction (XRD).Further, silver nanoparticles showed effective antibacterial activity toward StaphylococcusaureusandShigella sp..
