• during the biosynthesis of metallic nanoparticles [34][35]. For instance, plants from the Lamiaceae family (e.g., Ocimum spp., Rosmarinus officinalis, and Salvia rosmarinus) are extensively documented for their abundant polyphenols such as rosmarinic acid and caffeic acid, which facilitate the reduction

• characterization of quercetin- and caffeic acid-functionalized chitosan-capped colloidal silver nanoparticles (Ch/Q- and Ch/CA-Ag NPs), and their antibacterial and anticancer activities. The formation of Ch/Q- and Ch/CA-Ag NPs has been confirmed by ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis) spectroscopy, Fourier-transform

• infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The characteristic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption band has been found at 417 and 424 nm for Ch/Q- and Ch/CA-Ag NPs, respectively.
