The use of nanotechnology in medicine especially for drug delivery is shown to have various benefits. Nanoparticles are being used to reduce toxicity and side effects that drugs may impose to the patient. Cumin (&lt;em&gt;Cuminum cyminum&lt;/em&gt;) is a common spice used for its distinct aromatic effect. Plant mediated biological synthesis of nanoparticles has been gaining importance due to its simplicity and eco friendliness. This study therefore was aimed to synthesize cumin oil mediated silver nanoparticles and assess its antioxidant activity. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Cumin oil mediated silver nanoparticles were initially synthesised and characterised by UV-Visible spectrophotometer and TEM. Further the cumin oil mediated AgNPs were subjected to DPPH assay to determine the antioxidant activity. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Cumin oil mediated AgNPs were biosynthesised with ease and showed good antioxidant activity compared to standard. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This study conclude that cumin seed oil mediated silver nanoparticles have the potential to be used as an effective antioxidant. Hence, it may be employed in large scale production and may be used in many medicinal applications where there is a need for antioxidant.&lt;/p&gt;

Nanoparticles are formally synthesized by chemical methods in which the toxic and flammable chemicals are used. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;This article reports about an effective, rapid and eco-friendly technique for the fabrication of gold nanoparticles from gold chloride solution using &lt;em&gt;Azima tetracantha&lt;/em&gt; Lam. leaves extract. The effects of the leaves extract of &lt;em&gt;Azima tetracantha&lt;/em&gt;, the concentration of Gold chloride solution, the time of the reaction and the effect of tem&amp;not;perature on the rate of the reaction were investigated. The synthesized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were characterized by using various techniques such as Dynamic Light Spectroscopy (DLS), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), UV-Vis spectra gave surface plasmon resonance (SPR) at 540 nm, Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). This revealed the reduction of gold ions (Au&lt;sup&gt;+&lt;/sup&gt;) to gold metal (Au&lt;sup&gt;0&lt;/sup&gt;) which indicated the formation of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The antimicrobial action of biosynthesized AuNPs indicated effective activity against bacterial pathogens &lt;em&gt;Aeromonas liquefaciens&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Enterococcus fecalis&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Micrococcus luteus&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Salmonella typhimurium&lt;/em&gt; and fungal pathogens &lt;em&gt;Candida albicans&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Cryptococcus sp, Microsporum canis, Trichophyton rubrum&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This revealed that gold nanoparticles could provide a safer alternative to conventional antimicrobial agents.&lt;/p&gt;
