Abstrakt: Silver nanoparticles are synthesised using green nanotechnology and environmentally friendly chemistry, with Ocimum sanctum (Krishna Tulsi) leaf extract serving as a reducing and capping agent. This technique enables us to eliminate the usage of harmful reducing reagents while maintaining eco-friendly, cost-effective, and capable large-scale production due to the plentiful supply of greener products. This would accelerate science and technology forward at an alarming rate in the production of agricultural and industrial products, superior and durable materials, novel therapies for chronic and hated diseases like cancer, and plenty of additional industrial applications. According to the findings of this study, AgNPs from Krishna Tulsi extract have a great potential for usage as an antibacterial agent in the medical textile, food, and cosmetic industries. The stability of synthesised molecules is examined using several components, such as temperature, time, and aggregation. The characterization was further examined using UV-Visible Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy, and Transmission Electron Microscopy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
