*3.2.3 Energy dispersive spectroscopy analysis*

EDS analysis of synthesized particles showed the presence of elemental silver, which correlates with XRD analysis (**Figure 4**). We identified the signal energy peaks for hexagonal-shaped AgNPs produced by using *Syzygium cumini* leaf extract. The NPs showed the prominent silver energy emission peak in a range of 2–4 keV in the spectrum.
