Abstract
Plants are the most important source of a variety of phytochemicals having a wide range of biomedical applications. Nanotechnology is a fast-developing field that has applications in nearly every branch of modern science, medicine, and technology. The plant materials used for nanoparticle production, evaluation, and applications are summarized in this chapter. The production of several metallic nanoparticles uses plant materials such as leaves, fruits, seeds, roots, stems, flowers, barks, and fruit peels. Plants with minimal costs and a high level of eco-friendliness are very advanced and beneficial for human applications. Nanoparticles such as silver, gold, zinc oxide, tin oxide, titanium oxide, copper, palladium, platinum cadmium sulfide, cadmium oxide, zinc sulfide, and others were synthesized with the help of various plants, and their various parts are described briefly along with characterization strategies in this book chapter.
