ABSTRACT: Development of reliable and low-cost requirement for large-scale eco-friendly biogenic synthesis of metallic nanoparticles is an important step for industrial applications of bionanotechnology. In the present study, the mycosynthesis of spherical nano-Ag (12.7?±?0.8?nm) from extracellular filtrate of local endophytic T. harzianum SYA.F4 strain which have interested mixed bioactive metabolites (alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, phenols, nitrate reductase (320?nmol/hr/ml), carbohydrate (25??g/?l) and total protein concentration (2.5?g/l) was reported. Industrial mycosynthesis of nano-Ag can be induced with different characters depending on the fungal cultivation and physical conditions. Taguchi design was applied to improve the physicochemical conditions for nano-Ag production, and the optimum conditions which increased its mass weight 3 times larger than a basal condition were as follows: AgNO3 (0.01?M), diluted reductant (10?v/v, pH 5) and incubated at 30?°C, 200?rpm for 24?hr. Kinetic conversion rates in submerged batch cultivation in 7?L stirred tank bioreactor on using semi-defined cultivation medium was as follows: the maximum biomass production (Xmax) and maximum nano-Ag mass weight (Pmax) calculated (60.5?g/l and 78.4?g/l respectively). The best nano-Ag concentration that formed large inhibition zones was 100??g/ml which showed against A.alternate (43?mm) followed by Helminthosporium sp. (35?mm), Botrytis sp. (32?mm) and P. arenaria (28?mm).
