Abstract
) bacterial strains. The synthesis was performed by a bio-reduction process where a bioactive agent is responsible for reducing metallic ions to metallic nanoparticles as an eco-friendly, cost-effective, non-toxic, one-step, and sustainable method. Therefore, this study may create an imperative synthetic route for the fabrication of green-AgNPs and their application in antibacterial coatings in cotton textiles.
