Isolation And Characterisation Of Active Fungal Endophytes From Aegle Marmelos

Abstract

Developing eco-friendly and sustainable methods for synthesizing metal nanoparticles has gained significant attention in recent years. Among the various metal nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles have been extensively studied due to their unique physicochemical properties, including antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and wound-healing activities, making them promising for various biomedical applications. The conventional chemical and physical methods for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles are often energy-intensive, costly, and involve the use of hazardous chemicals, which can have adverse environmental and health implications. (Nahar et al., 2015) (Hossain et al., 2019) To address these concerns, the use of biological systems, such as microorganisms, has emerged as a viable alternative for producing silver nanoparticles in an environmentally friendly manner.
