Abstract

Silver nanoparticles are becoming a trend in producing products beneficial to humans. They can be made using bioreductor in the form of biological materials, such as ecoenzymes. This study aims to synthesize silver nanoparticles using fermented solutions from purple vegetables, herbs, and spices as bioreductor. This study was conducted in two stages: silver nanoparticle biosynthesis and morphological analysis and antioxidant analysis. The results showed that the silver nanoparticle solution A was successfully synthesized, and solution B had the highest activity value. Therefore, further efforts are needed to explore solution B for further purposes.
