Green Fabrication of Silver Nanoparticles, Statistical Process Optimization, Characterization, and Molecular Docking Analysis of Their Antimicrobial Activities onto Cotton Fabrics.

ABSTRACT: Nanotechnological methods for creating multifunctional fabrics are attracting global interest. The incorporation of nanoparticles in the field of textiles enables the creation of multifunctional textiles exhibiting UV irradiation protection, antimicrobial properties, self-cleaning properties and photocatalytic. Nanomaterials-loaded textiles have many innovative applications in pharmaceuticals, sports, military the textile industry etc. This study details the biosynthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using the aqueous mycelial-free filtrate of Aspergillus flavus. The formation of AgNPs was indicated by a brown color in the extracellular filtrate and confirmed by UV-Vis spectroscopy with a peak at 426 nm. The Box-Behnken design (BBD) is used to optimize the phy
