摘要:Over the few decades, the interest of scientists in the field of nanotechnology has been increased. Theproduction of metallic nanoparticles is an important and active area of interest. Although numerous physical andchemical methods of nanoparticle synthesis are available, it is more convenient and helpful to use biological systems,such as micro-organisms (Bacteria, fungi) for nanoparticle synthesis. This system gives an alternative green way ofsynthesizing low-cost, nontoxic metal nanoparticles. This review provides an overview of useful microorganisms in thesynthesis of metallic nanoparticles and also highlights the potential importance of the living systems in various fields.
