The implementation of sustainable processes minimizing the use of unsafe chemical processes and toxic chemicals is recommended; therefore, there is an increasing demand for greener synthesis of nanoparticles. The use of biocompatible, sustainable, and non toxic agents as reducing and stabilization agents in the synthesis of nano-dimensioned silver particles makes them more suitable for use in biological fields. Normally, chemical reduction is used for the synthesis of stable
silver nanoparticles in water, and citrate and ascorbate are commonly-used biocompatible reductants
