An environmentally friendly, economical, and sustainable way of producing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) is the green synthesis of AgNPs, which uses Chlorophytum comosum, a plant rich in bioactive chemicals. An aqueous extract of A. scoparia was used to successfully reduce silver ions, producing AgNPs with a distinctive UV–visible absorption peak at 421 nm. They were thoroughly characterized using FTIR, TEM, SEM, which verified their functional groups, stability, and homogeneous morphology. The produced AgNPs' catalytic activity was measured by reducing aromatic nitro compounds, and their antibacterial activity was tested against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
