| contents | <p>In the era of sustainable development, the need for eco-friendly and cost-effective methods for synthesizing<br>nanomaterials has gained significant momentum. Traditional physical and chemical approaches for nanoparticle synthesis are<br>often energy-intensive, environmentally hazardous, and economically burdensome. In contrast, the use of environmental<br>microbes for green nanomaterial fabrication offers a promising and sustainable alternative. These microbes possess<br>remarkable biochemical versatility and are capable of synthesizing various metallic and metal oxide nanoparticles under mild<br>conditions. This review explores the vast potential of environmental microbes—such as bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, and<br>algae—in the biosynthesis of nanomaterials. It outlines the mechanisms underlying microbial nanomaterial synthesis, including<br>intracellular and extracellular pathways, and highlights their ecological significance and functional properties. Moreover, it<br>discusses current and emerging applications of biogenic nanoparticles in medicine, agriculture, and environmental<br>remediation. Challenges in large-scale production, standardization, and regulatory compliance are also addressed. By<br>integrating microbial biotechnology with nanoscience, researchers are paving the way for innovative, sustainable solutions<br>across multiple sectors while promoting environmental integrity.</p> |
