In the current study, a simple, rapid, eco-friendly and cost-effective method was successfully developed through a green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Ziziphus spina-christi leaf extract as an antimicrobial agent. Z.spina-christi aqueous extract was used as a reducing agent for synthesizing silver nanoparticles.
