The focus of this study has been the development of Silver-Triticum aestivum L. using the plant extract approach to create nanoparticles. This method deals with using the Triticum aestivum L. extract as a reducing agent, which converted silver ions to silver nanoparticles. This study utilized a Triticum aestivum L. extract as a capping agent to mitigate the aggregation of Ag-Triticum aestivum L nanoparticles. The formation of Ag-Triticum aestivum L. nanocrystals was confirmed by a color change from white to light yellow following a 24-hour incubation period. The dimensions and morphology of Ag-Triticum aestivum L nanoparticles were analyzed using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The FE-SEM images revealed that the prepared Ag-Triticum aestivum L nanoparticles have a diameter of 52.14–96.16 nm; our preparing particles have an average diameter of 77.16 nm, and they do not have uniform shape. While the cubic-like shapes are dominant. The characterization of the prepared Ag-Triticum aestivum L nanoparticles was conducted using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). To characterize the resulting Ag-Triticum aestivum L particles, an X-ray diffraction technique (XRD) and electrodispersive X-ray (EDX) were used.
