Edible Mushroom assisted synthesis and applications of metal nanoparticles: A comprehensive review
Keywords:
Edible mushrooms, nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles, zirconia nanoparticles, biosynthesis, drug delivery, cancer therapy, antibacterialAbstract
Edible mushrooms have been used as either reducing or stabilizing agents in the biological process of synthesis of nanoparticles. The mushroom-assisted synthesis has been reported to produce large quantities of proteins and has the characteristic large yield and low toxicity issues. The nanoparticles derived from them are coated with special coatings that protect them from external environment, thus improving their life span and stability. This review describes the various mushrooms that assisted in the synthesis of nanoparticles such as silver, gold, zirconia and their tentative use in various biological aspects have been discussed. Moreover, the characterization of various nanoparticles using analytical techniques has also been highlighted.
