Abstract On the global market, silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) are in high demand for their various applications in biomedicine, material engineering, and consumer products. This study highlighted the biosynthesis of the Ag-NPs using saw palmetto seed phenolic extract (SPS-phenolic extract), which contained vital antioxidant-phenolic compounds. Herein, central composite statistical design, response surface methodology, and sixteen runs were conducted to optimize Ag-NPs biosynthesis conditions for maximizing the production of Ag-NPs and their phenolic content. The best-produced SPS-Ag-NPs showed a surface plasmon resonance peak at 460 nm and nano-spherical sizes ranging from 11.17 to 38.32 nm using the UV spectrum analysis and TEM images, respectively. The produced SPS-Ag-NPs displayed a high negative zeta-potential value (− 32.8 mV) demonstrating their high stability. The FTIR analysis demonstrated that SPS-phenolic compounds were involved in sliver bio-reduction and in stabilizing, capping, and preventing Ag-NP aggregation. The thermogravimetric investigation revealed that the produced SPS-Ag-NPs have remarkable thermal stability. The produced SPS-Ag-NP exceeded total antioxidant activity (13.8 µmol Trolox equivalent) more than the SPS-phenolic extract (12.0 µmol Trolox equivalent). The biosynthesized SPS-Ag-NPs exhibited noticeably better antibacterial activity against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative E. coli and Gram-positive S. aureus compared to SPS-phenolic extract. Hence, the bio-synthesized SPS-Ag-NPs demonstrated great potential for use in biomedical and antimicrobial applications. |
