Green tea leaf aqueous extracts of varying volumes (5ml, 10ml, 15ml, 20ml, 25ml) are outlined for the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using a 1Mm silver nitrate solution. UV-visible absorption spectroscopy, FTIR, SEM, and HPLC are utilized to evaluate synthesized nanoparticles. The synthesis was predicated on the phenomenon of surface plasmon resonance, as determined by UV- spectra at 200-400 nm, which confirmed the presence of silver nanoparticles. The Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum confirms the presence of Amine, Alcohol, Aldehyde, Aromatic, C-H bending, and C-O bending functional groups as concentrations of green tea leaf extracts increase. The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis reveals a helical structure of silver nanoparticles ranging in size from 5 to 100 nm, which exhibits good antioxidant and antimicrobial properties against pathogens such as E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus, as well as good antimicrobial activity.
