However, spherical nanoparticles are still considered to be the best-suited for practical applications in either colloidal form, or immobilized state. Despite considerable success in synthesizing AgNPs with different dimensions and size ranges, many of the reported methods have certain limitations in terms of their control over shape, size and stability in thedispersion system. With few exceptions, borohydride mediated reduction has been employed for the synthesis of dispersible silver nanoparticles. It is worth mentioning that earlier researchers have found it difficult to achieve nanoparticles below 10 nm with high monodispersity and stability. For small sized nanoparticles, an excess of strong reducing agent for example, sodium borohydride (NaBH4) is desired, which facilitates instant nuclei generation, resulting in the formation of monodispersed and uniform sized silver colloids. However, it is not easy to obtain larger-sized nanoparticles employing borohydride reduction
