The method of green production of nanoparticles has received much attention due to its environmentalfriendliness, low cost and at the same time simplicity. In this study, in addition to the green synthesis of silvernanoparticles using the leaf extract of the Sclerorhachis leptoclada (SLL@AgNPs) and the morphological study ofthe SLL@AgNPs, the antibacterial properties of the SLL@AgNPs were compared with the extract of the S.leptoclada plant and silver nanoparticles alone.
