Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Cynoglossum creticum Leaf Extract: Eco-Friendly Approach for Antibacterial, Antioxidant, and Sensing Applications.

ABSTRACT: Nanotechnology leveraging renewable plant biomass to develop silver nanoparticles offers eco-friendly solutions with more sustainable applications. The present research explores the employment of an aqueous extract of Cynoglossum creticum leaves in the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ccl-AgNPs) for potential biological and sensing purposes. The synthesis parameters were controlled spectrophotometrically, and the physicochemical characterizations of Ccl-AgNPs were evaluated. Phytochemicals in the extract served dual roles, as confirmed by infrared spectroscopy analysis. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) further revealed the presence of a plant-derived organic matter on AgNPs. Morphological descriptions indicated the spherical form of Cc
