Mosae Selvakumar, P. Angel Antonyraj, Churchil Babu, Revington Dakhsinamurthy, Arun Manikandan, N. Palanivel, A. Green Synthesis and Antimicrobial Activity of Monodispersed Silver Nanoparticles Synthesized Using Lemon Extract <div><p>A simple, environmentally benign green synthesis of silver nanoparticles was achieved using lemon fruit extract (<i>Citrus lemon</i>). The synthesized silver nanoparticles were characterized using UV-Vis spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy. The predominantly spherical monodispersed 2–10 nm sized silver nanoparticles were obtained for the first time using lemon extract. The antimicrobial activity of silver nanoparticles was also explored. Lemon extract–mediated synthesis is cost efficient, eco-friendly and an easy alternative to conventional methods of silver nanoparticles synthesis.</p></div> silver nanoparticles synthesis;lemon;transmission electron microscopy;Monodispersed Silver Nanoparticles Synthesized;silver nanoparticles;spectroscopy 2015-10-08
