Retama monosperma chemical profile, green synthesis of silver nanoparticles, and antimicrobial potential: a study supported by network pharmacology and molecular docking

ABSTRACT: In this study, Retama monosperma extract (RME) was used for the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (RME-AgNPs). RME's phenolic profile was identified by liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectroscopy (LC-ESI/MS/MS) technique. A tentative identification of 21 phenolic metabolites from the extract was performed. The produced RME-AgNPs showed UV absorbance at 443 nm. FTIR spectroscopy confirmed the presence of RME functional groups. In addition, XRD analysis confirmed the crystallography of RME-AgNPs via exhibiting peaks with 2θ values at 38.34°, 44.29°, and 64.65°. RME-AgNPs were spherical with particle sizes ranging from 9.87 to 21.16 nm, as determined by SEM and HR-TEM techniques. The zeta potential determined the particle's charge value as −15.25 mv. RME-AgNPs exhibited significa
