In today's science, nanotechnology is a great field for researchers. Nanotechnology is a modern field of science that performs a useful role in the day to day life aspects. Nanotechnology deals with production, manipulation, and the use of material ranging in nanometers. Amongst all the nanoparticles synthesized; silver nanoparticles attained a particular place within the area of nanotechnology due to their antimicrobial and biomedical applications. Silver nanoparticles have a world-wide advantage because of their unusual physical and chemical characteristics especially to antimicrobial actions plus being non-toxic and environmentally safe.
