2.2 Types of Nanoparticles
2.2.1 Metal Nanoparticles
Metal nanoparticles are a type of nanoparticle mainly synthesized by biological methods. They help to protect the system against toxic effects of metal ion concentration.
Different microorganisms and plants show tolerance to metal ions through this system. The most commonly used microorganism for the synthesis of metal nanoparticles is bacteria and fungi. The mainly synthesized metal nanoparticles through
biological system are silver and gold nanoparticles.
