HR-TEM images of GM-AgNPs.

Notes: The extract concentrations utilized for synthesis were (A) 0.02%, (B) 0.09%, (C) 0.08%, (D) 0.03%, (E) 0.09%, (F) 0.05%, (G) 0.03%, and (H) 0.02%. A red circle (D) shows a silver seed particle (head) with two-sided growth (wing); however, the appearance of this wing shape was very rare. The distance between two neighboring lattice fringes was measured to be 0.235 nm for heads and 0.236 nm and 0.239 nm for tails (G and H).

Abbreviations: GM-AgNPs, silver nanoparticles green synthesized by mangosteen pericarp extract; HR-TEM, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy.
