In the advanced progress of synthesis metal nanoparticles, use a bio-mimicking approach has been extensively studied and recognised as non-toxic method. The Ag-NPs synthesised from inorganic compounds using plant extracts surfactants are quite novel. Therefore, this study was carried out by synthesising characterising composite leave bark extract solution Croton macrostachyus capping agent. A 1:3 exhibited small nanoparticles with rod-like shape that were active against bacteria. addition,...
