Abstract

The present study demonstrated the effectiveness of bioinspired synthesized AgNPs against MCF-7 breast cancer cell line, we found a dramatic decrease in cell viability when the concentration of the bioinspired synthesized AgNPs was increased and there was a dose-dependent reduction in cell viability. This study further indicates the significance of green technology for nanoparticle fabrication and future application in control of several human diseases.
