Figure 1 Characterization of Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). (A) Transmission electron microscopy [18] analysis revealed that the synthesized citrate-capped AgNPs were all spherical in shape (scale bar = 50 nm). (B) The mean hydrodynamic size of the AgNPs determined by dynamic light scattering (DLS) is 13.2 ± 3.1 nm. The mean size of AgNPs was 8.89 ± 1.68 nm. (C) AgNPs were characterized by UV-visible absorption spectra and showed maximum absorbance at 391 nm. (D) The zeta potential was observed as a sharp peak at ?28.85 mV. (E) The energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectrum showed that the main components of the NPs are silver.
