Abstract:

There are several existing methods for synthesizing metallic nanoparticles, with the most commonly applied being chemical reduction methods. Recently, the biogenic synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles has been developed. These methods involve biological systems such as bacteria, fungus, and plant extracts. Green and biological methods are economical, eco-friendly, and non-toxic methods of obtaining nanoparticles for possible biomedical applications. Here, we present a short overview of the biogenic synthesis of platinum nanoparticles using plants, plant extracts, bacteria, fungi, and other substances.
