Abstract: of 251.86 ± 58.90 μg/mL against HeLa cell lines. Biosynthesized Ag NPs showed a distinct peak at 409 nm in UV-visible spectra. FTIR analysis revealed the involvement of different functional groups of the organic compounds present in plant extract as reducing, capping, and stabilizing agents in the synthesis of Ag NPs. XRD analysis confirmed the crystal structure of Ag NPs, whereas the average grain size of 44.28 nm was determined by FE-SEM analysis. EDX spectra established the elemental composition of Ag NPs. The present study shows the synthesized Ag NPs using plant extract impart the potential biological activities as compared to that of the crude extract.
