Microbial contamination is one of the most severe challenges throughout the food industry, medical equipment, and water treatment. Among MNPs, noble metal nanoparticles (MNPs), especially silver (Ag) with various potential physiological characteristics are commonly exploited in multiple domains of medicine, such as antimicrobial activity. The diversity of physical and chemical approaches have been documented for nanostructured materials synthesis. Chemical procedures contribute to the formation of some hazardous substances on the surface of nanoparticles, which can cause complications in their medical implementations. The development of biological and simple methodologies (green chemistry) is therefore essential to enhance the widespread application of nanomaterials and to inhibit environmental contamination. the present book is an overview of the synthesis of silver nanoparticles employing plant extracts and outlines the antimicrobial activities of these nanoparticles.
