- Abstract
Natural sources of nanoparticles, such as seaweed, demonstrated their bioefficiency as anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and anticancer medicines. It is a key biodeficient component that is biosynthesised utilising a non-toxic, environmentally acceptable technology that has fascinated researchers worldwide. Using established in-vitro techniques, the anti-inflammatory activity of silver nanoparticles synthesised from Kappaphycusalvarezi aqueous extract was evaluated in this study. UV-Vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis were used to characterise the nanoparticles. This seaweed's nanoparticles offer solid proof that they are an efficient anti-inflammatory. The bioefficiency of this plant and its nanoparticles may be attributed to chemicals based on flavonoids.
