Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNP) using biomolecular extracts of
plant origin is of interest to many researchers because of their potential to
produced stable product. It is hypothesized that laser ablation of the AgNP
in solution will enhance the biomolecules such as aliphatic amines, alkenes (=C-H), alkanes (C-H), alcohol (O-H) and unsaturatedesters (C-O) in the
Nano emulsion. Hence, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect
of laser oblation on the physicochemical properties and stability of AgNP
reduced with Aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis ). Experiments were conducted
with the pre-made AgNP were subjected to the three laser oblation treatments:
1) Control no laser treatment of AgNP, 2) Laser ablation treatment
for 5 minutes and 3) Laser ablation treatment for 10 minutes. The results of
the analysis show that laser oblation treatment has significant effect (p <
0.01) on the concentration of AgNP. The intensity of the absorption peak
significantly (p < 0.01) increases with laser exposure time. While 214 ppm
was observed with no laser treatment, 224 and 229 ppm increase of concentration
was observed when laser treated for 5 and 10 min. The rates of reaction
of restructuring the particles sizes were 0.384, 0.408 and 0.4288 min-1 at
different laser exposure treatments times 0, 5 and 10 min, respectively. The
FTIR results show significant (p < 0.05) increase in biomolecules concentration
of aliphatic amines, alkenes (=C-H), alkanes (C-H), alcohol (O-H) and
unsaturatedesters (C-O).
