Ag nanoparticles (AgNP) were synthesized using Eudrilus eugeniae earthworms.
- ss="label">•
AgNP were characterized by UV–vis spectrophotometry, FTIR spectroscopy and FESEM.
- ss="label">•
AgNP were spherical in shape, crystalline in nature, with a size range of 4–10 nm.
- ss="label">•
Low doses of AgNP reduced in vitro HepG2 cell proliferation inducing apoptosis.
- ss="label">•
AgNP were toxic to chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum and its vector Anopheles stephensi.
