Abstract: The herbal plant Murraya koengii is currently used in medicinal practices for treating various diseases. Murraya koenigii is a small spreading shrub belongs to family Rutaceae. The study was carried out to synthesize silver nanoparticles from the leaves of Murraya koengii. Silver nanoparticles are synthesized by the reduction of silver ions from Ag+ to Ag using reducing agents. These silver nanoparticles were further confirmed by using UV-Vis spectroscopy. Absorption spectra of silver nanoparticles formed has absorbance peak between 440-460 nm. SEM provides the morphology and size details of the silver nanoparticles. SEM results showed that the diameters of prepared nanoparticles in the solution with a specific sizes range.
