reen chemistry has been of great interest to researcher in the
area of synthesis and fabrication of nanoparticles for waste
water treatment and electrochemical sensors application. This
research therefore report the green synthesis of metal and metal
oxide nanoparticles for various application. The synthesized
nanofibers were characterized by using spectroscopic,
morphological and electrochemical techniques such as cyclic
voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy. Further studies
were conducted on the synthesized nanomaterials such as
antimicrobial properties, toxicity studies, the electron transport
properties, stability and reproducibility of the nanomaterials.
The purpose of the study is also to evaluate the electrochemical
properties of nanoparticles synthesized via green plants extract
and further applied towards the electrochemical detection of
various biological and environmental molecules. The synthesized
nanomaterials showed good applications in electrochemical
sensors, waste water treatment and wound healing.
