Abstract
Cytotoxicity is defined as the toxicity caused due to action of chemotherapeutic agents on living cells , the cytotoxicity tests hold a significant value in nanoparticles as they help in determining the proposed bio medical use of nanoparticles.
Materials and Methods: The research project involved two basic steps as it’s methodology; 1. Synthesis of lemon seed extract assisted silver nanoparticles and determination of cytotoxicity using brine shrimp lethality assay.
Result: The cytotoxicity assay using brine shrimp lethality assay showcased the death of very few nauplii, thus showcasing very little cytotoxicity.
Conclusion: The lemon seed extract assisted silver nanoparticles showcased very very little cytotoxicity.
