Ardisia crenata, a medicinal plant has garnered attention for its potential in synthesizing nanoparticles using environmental friendly methods. In this study, we present the formulation and characterization of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) derived from Ardisia crenata through a green synthesis approach. The synthesis process involved the reduction of silver ions using a plant extract as a reducing and stabilizing agent. Various parameters such as the concentration of plant extract, reaction time, and temperature were optimized to achieve well defined nanoparticles.
