Novel Linalool-Silver nanoparticles: Synthesis, characterization, and dual approach evaluation via computational docking and antibacterial assays.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, scientists have developed new medical delivery techniques based on nanotechnology and have been actively creating nanoparticles combined with various extracts from natural plant products. This study aimed to conjugate linalool surface with silver nanoparticles, investigate its characteristics, and evaluate its effectiveness as a possible new therapeutic target against bacterial strains. A CMC-linalool solution was used to create linalool-based AgNPs (LN@AgNPs), which were then characterized by UV-Vis, FTIR, SEM, DLS, and zeta potential studies. The shape, hydrodynamic diameter, and negative zeta potential were among the advantageous properties of the resultant particles, which improved their performance and stability. Antibacterial potential was assessed using both in sili
