Abstract: | Nanotechnology is relevant to diverse fields of science and technology. Due to the many advantages over non-biological systems,
several research groups have exploited the use of biological systems for the synthesis of nanoparticles. Among the different
microbes used for the synthesis of nanoparticles, fungi are efficient candidates for fabrication of metal nanoparticles both
intra- and extracellulary. The nanoparticles synthesized using fungi present good polydispersity, dimensions and stability.
The potential applications of nanotechnology and nanoparticles in different fields have revolutionized the health care, textile
and agricultural industries and they are reviewed here. |
