    Studies on the Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles and their Utilization on the Development of Polymer Nanocomposites for Water Disinfection and Wound Healing Applications
    (2022) Bora, Anupama
    The thesis contains embodiment of research aimed towards (a) Synthesis, optimization and characterization of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) via the green route using ‘Bhimkol’ (Musa balbisiana Colla) peel extracts; (b) Study of the phytochemical properties of Bhimkol (Musa balbisiana Colla) peels and the antibacterial activities of both bhimkol peel extract and green synthesized AgNPs; (c) Synthesis and characterization of Silver Nanoparticle via green route using Sechium edule aqueous extract, study of their antimicrobial as well as catalytic activity; (d) Characterization and development of polystyrene nanocomposites (PS-AgNPs) from waste thermocol and green synthesized AgNPs for water disinfection application and (e) Characterization and development of PVA/Gelatin/AgNPs based polymer nanocomposite hydrogel for wound dressing application.
