Abstract

Nanoscience is a field that is making a score in research day by day and making an impact in all spheres of human life. Biosynthesis of nanoparticles by means of physical and chemical processes is highly expensive. In order to reduce the inevitable expenses in downstream processing of the synthesized nanomaterials and to increase the application of nanoparticles, the scientific community targeted the biological organisms. Plants are important, safe and easily available sources with broad variability of metabolites that may aid in nanoparticle synthesis. Recently marine plant resources have made remarkable impact in the field of pharmaceutical, industrial and biotechnological product developments owing to their rich wealth of bioactive compounds. The present review mainly focuses on mangrove vegetation in Diviseema & Machilipatnam regions and their applications in the synthesis of nanoparticles of pharmaceutical use.

Keywords: Nanoscience, nanoparticles, mangrove vegetation, Diviseema & Machilipatnam regions.
