Abstract Nanoparticles (NPs) have already been widely used in catalysis, antibacterial and coating fields. Compared with
the traditional toxic and harmful reducing reagents, green synthesis of NPs by using plant extracts is not only
environmental-friendly and cost-effective but also conducive to the multi-level and efficient utilization of wild
plant resources. In this study, the aqueous extracts from Sorbus pohuashanensis (SP) and Aronia melanocarpa
(AM) fruits were used as the reducing and protective reagents for synthesizing Au/AgNPs, with the characteristics
of originality operation and high repeatability. The SP/AM fruit extracts functionalized Au/AgNPs were characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy (UV-vis), transmission… More >
