Biosynthesis, optimization, purification and characterization of gold nanoparticles

Many microorganisms produce intracellular metal nanoparticles. Aqueous gold, when exposed to several actinomycetal strains, become thereby, leading to the formation of gold nanoparticles. The use of microorganisms in the synthesis of nanoparticles is emerging as an eco-friendly and exciting approach gold for recovery. Streptomyces hygroscopicus was used for the biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles. UV and visible spectroscopic studies of biofilms...
