Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) were successfully synthesis from AgNO3 through a green method under sonochemical irradiation by using seaweed Kappaphycus alvarezii (K. alvarezii) as biopolymer media. Many methods for synthesis Ag-NPs reported such as chemical and physical techniques however many of th...
