Outline

A hand-held “Nanoparticle Synthesizer” has been developed by us which can be used for synthesizing metal nanoparticles in a simple, rapid way. The raw materials are Weed Plant Parthenium histeroporus leaf extract and silver nitrate. The hand-held device is cheap, power free, portable and contains microfluidic chip (PDMS) having microchannels. The total cost of the device may be around 100 rupees.
