A reliable mechanism responsible for the impressive biological activity of AgNPs is considered to be a key factor in future research. Wide scope to aware control the release of silver and improving the

Over the past few decades, nanoparticles of noble metals such as silver exhibited significantly distinct physical, chemical and biological properties from their bulk counterparts. Current chapter specifically encounters synthesis, characterization, and bio-applications of silver nanoparticles, with special emphasis on anticancer, antimicrobial activity and its mechanisms. Green chemistry is being exploited for developing silver nanoparticles. Several methods utilized to create silver nanoparticles utilizing plant extracts as reducing or capping agents. Current chapter represents different methods of preparation silver nanoparticles and application of
