Abstract

The development of nanotechnology, which is playing a part in every discipline subject, is a recent achievement in the science and technology fields. Modern nanotechnology places a high priority on environmentally friendly methods of producing metal nanoparticles. Utilizing plant extract is cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and has less negative side effects. The development of the new discipline of "Nano medicine" is due to the therapy of various chronic non-communicable diseases with metal nanoparticles. The ultimate goal of all scientists working in the field is to use nanomaterials and nanostructures to treat numerous critical diseases without causing any negative effects. One of the most important medical problems in both human and veterinary medicine is wound healing, which stresses the urgent need for creating novel medications with wound-healing properties. The green synthesis of nanoparticles approach is a very effective methodology for various treatment systems based on small nanomaterials, and it is becoming increasingly acceptable for diverse activities in the field of nanotechnology. Although many different medicinal plants have been utilised for wound healing, nanotechnology sheds light on the area of study for the biomedical use of metal nanoparticles. This review covers the most recent findings on various green metal nanoparticles, their characterization, and their abilities to treat wounds through in vitro, in vivo, and scratch assay techniques
