Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles from Tribulus terrestris and its antimicrobial activity: A novel biological approach

► Synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag) by biological techniques with plant dried fruit body. ► The work emphasizes on the synthesis of silver nanoparticles with extracts of fruit body of the plant Tribulus terrestris. ► By this biological procedure, spherical shaped silver nanoparticle obtained similar to previous report. ► Apart from various microorganisms and biomolecules and plant based synthesis study, this may be the first report on the dried fruits based synthesis of Silver nanoparticles and stabilization.
