Description 635-645
 Mangroves are one of the
diverged ecosystems and are a rich source of medicinal and other valuable plant
secondary products. Although a number of plants and micro-organisms have been
used for the development of nanoparticles and different types of nanoparticles
have already been synthesized from them, very few species of mangrove plants
are being reported to have such uses. Some of the mangroves that are reported
to have been used for synthesis of nanoparticles are Ceriops tagal, Rhizophora mucronata, R. apiculata, Avicenna marina and
Padina gymnospora. Keeping the above
factors into consideration, the present review aims at different aspects of the
possible exploitation of mangrove plants for synthesis of different types of
nanoparticles using various methods and mechanisms.
