Green synthesis of gold nanoparticles using an antiepileptic plant extract: in vitro biological and photo-catalytic activities.

ABSTRACT: Gold nanoparticles are one of the widely used metallic nanoparticle having unique surface plasmon characteristic, offers major utility in biomedical and therapeutic fields. However, chemically synthesized nanoparticle creates toxicity in the living organisms and contradicts the eco-friendly and cost-effective nature. So, developing greener synthetic route for synthesis of gold nanoparticle using natural materials is an enthralling field of research for its effectiveness in synthesizing eco-friendly, non-toxic materials. Moreover, biological components attached as stabilizing agent can exert its own effect along with the advantages of nanoparticle conjugation. In this work, we used for the first time methanolic leaf extract of Moringa oleifera as this fraction of M. oleifera e
