Abstract

Nanotechnology is emerging as a field of applied science and technology. Synthesis of nanoparticles is done by various physical and chemical methods but the biological system is gaining attention as an eco-friendly technique. The biosynthetic method employing plant parts is proving as a simple and cost-effective method for the synthesis of nanoparticles. The present mini review focuses on the different systems utilized for the synthesis of nanoparticles with special emphasis on the use of plants for the synthesis process, its applications and future directions.
