Abstract

Metal nanoparticles (NPs) have been applied to different scientific fields. The synthesis of metal NPs is one of the most important research focuses. Metal NPs are synthesized by microorganism (such as bacteria, actinomyces, and fungi). It is well accepted that biosynthesis of inorganic NPs by microorganism is significant for both learning bio-mineralization mechanism and synthesis of advanced functional materials. The bottle-neck of current studies and the development orientation is pointed out by the recent processes.
